Actor and director Bryce Dallas Howard shared why she loved the Mandalorian getting injured during his appearance on The Book of Boba Fett television series. Howard directed one episode in each of The Mandalorian's first two seasons, a show set five years after the events of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi and centered on the mysterious Mandalorian bounty hunter Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) who was hired by the remnants of the evil Galactic Empire to retrieve the young Jedi Grogu. The two soon bond and Din instead chooses to reunite the child with any remaining Jedi.
During The Mandalorian season 1, Din acquired his shiny new armor made from beskar he received as payment, a tough metal that is impervious to blasters and lightsabers. This allowed Din to survive a surprise attack by Moff Gideon (Giancarlo Esposito) who wielded the famed Mandalorian lightsaber, the Darksaber. As a result of Gideon's defeat at the hand of Din, the Mandalorian gained the ritualistic right as the owner of the weapon until he is bested in combat by another. Howard referenced a scene in an episode she directed in The Book of Boba Fett season 1 where Din made an appearance. The bounty hunter has embraced his new weapon and used it when taking on enemies in a butcher shop. During his fight against numerous henchmen, Din accidentally slices his own leg due to his lack of skill with the blade. He later patches himself up by spraying the wound with bacta.
