‘The Mandalorian’s Baby Yoda could start talking: producer

The internet’s favorite baby might soon be saying his first words. 

According to “The Mandalorian” executive producer Dave Filoni, Baby Yoda speaking is a real possibility. 

“It’s definitely something we think about,” he told Insider. 

“We talk about how much would that change him or how much do we change him?” he said.

So far in “The Mandalorian,” which is currently in Season 3 on Disney+, Baby Yoda, a k a Grogu, who was reportedly inspired by ET, hasn’t said a word.

The show follows the Mandalorian, a k a Mando (Pedro Pascal), a bounty hunter who travels with his adopted son, Grogu.

Ever since the adorable green creature first appeared on-screen, Baby Yoda has taken the world by storm. He’s inspired countless memes, gotten involved in politics, spawned lines of toys, gotten celeb fans such as Lizzo and even gotten a portrait at London’s National Portrait Gallery. 

Through it all, he’s made cute baby cooing noises, and his ears flap a lot, but he’s never said a peep. He’s supposedly around 50 years old. Isn’t it time he talked? 

“I leave all that stuff to Jon [Favreau] really,” said Filoni. “I’m very protective of the character as far as being Jon’s brainchild, literally.” 

Of course, social media would probably debate over what Baby Yoda’s voice should sound like, and how conversations with Mando should go. Even without talking, Baby Yoda has already gotten into a feud with Jonah Hill.

If Baby Yoda were to talk in a future season, it’s unclear when that might happen. “The Mandalorian” creator Jon Favreau has stayed mum about how many seasons he plans on making. He previously told EW that he’s in no rush to wrap things up. 

“I don’t know what would make me not enjoy doing it, especially as long as the audience is connecting with these characters,” Favreau said. “This feels like a really enjoyable moment. And I love this format of telling one chapter at a time and keeping the audience guessing, but also fulfilling certain expectations.”

Filoni noted, “We really like [Baby Yoda] how he is. It’s hard … I think it depends how much farther we go forward. I don’t know.”
