In the third season finale ofThe Mandalorian, Din Djarin agreed to take on missions for the New Republic, a drastic change from his previous adventures as a lawbreaker and bounty hunter. But Pascal assures fans that his character is still a bounty hunter, albeit with a completely different focus.

“This opens the door for him to continue his best work as a bounty hunter, but working for the benefit of the good guys,”

Pascal spoke at length about Din Djarin's status as a new type of bounty hunter in the film. “A combination of skill and morality. If the first time you meet him, it's just about skill, beskar and the [Mandalorian] Creed,” Pascal explained. "Through his relationship with Grogu, there is an expansion of his heart and a lifting of his armor, so to speak, which forces him to fight for what he believes is right."
