TheMandalorian really didn't hold back this week. Here are 5 questions we have after the StarWars show's shocking new episode, The Spies.
Contents The penultimate episode of the Disney+ series’ third season, titled The Spies, takes more than a few shocking turns. Not only does it open with the long-awaited return of Moff Gideon , but it also ends with the Imperial warlord taking Din Djarin hostage and launching a deadly ambush on Bo-Katan and her Mandalorian followers.
While the focus of the scene is clearly on Gideon, viewers do get a chance to meet some of the Shadow Council’s other members, including Commandant Brendol Hux and Captain Gilad Pellaeon . The former character is the father of General Hux from the Sequel Trilogy, while the latter is a beloved figure among die-hard Star Wars fans.
So what is Project Necromancer? Given its name and Moff Gideon’s remark about Commandant Hux’s fascination with cloning, it seems safe to assume that Project Necromancer may be the name of the cloning operation that resulted not only in the creation of Supreme Leader Snoke but the return of Emperor Palpatine in Star Wars: Episode IX — The Rise of Skywalker. At least, it certainly makes sense that Hux and Co. would refer to a plan to bring Palpatine back as “Project Necromancer.
The Mandalorian has made it clear that Moff Gideon doesn’t like playing second fiddle to anyone, including his fellow Imperial leaders. Therefore, it seems unlikely that Gideon would immediately want to fall in line behind Thrawn upon the Grand Admiral’s return. As formidable as Gideon is, too, he’s no match for a master strategist like Thrawn. That means there’s a legitimate possibility Gideon could end up meeting his fate at the hands of none other than Thrawn himself.
There’s also the possibility that The Spies could refer to the three Mandalorian survivors who are introduced halfway through the Disney+ series’ latest episode. Considering that it’s revealed in The Spies that Moff Gideon has set up a new base for himself on Mandalore, it definitely doesn’t seem out of the question that the three “survivors” Bo-Katan, Din, and their allies meet in the episode could be the traitors referred to by its title.
