“Our people are scattered, like stars in the galaxy,” booms Pedro Pascal’s Din Djarin about his Mandalorian kin in the season 3 trailer for Disney+’s The Mandalorian . “What are we? What do we stand for?” he continues. The bounty hunter is attempting to reunite his people on their tragic home planet of Mandalore.
