Star Wars confirms when the Mandalorian has been an orphan and reveals more on his past

One of the old mysteries. The Mandalorian It has finally been clarified and sheds light on Din Djarin’s background.

In the series, we learn that DIN was orphan when the battle droids swept away his family, but the exact times of that tragedy have never been made explicit. The droids were models of the clone era of wars, but this did not necessarily mean the attack that occurred during the war itself.

Now, thanks to an extract from others Mandalorian visual guide Of Pablo HidalgoWhich was shared by Starwarstimeline.com, we have a definitive response. The book says:

“His real name is Din Djarin, and a tragic day during the clone wars on his planet of Aq Vetina’s house still pursued him. It was the day when his parents were killed by the Droid battle fire; the day he almost met the same destiny; the day on which the Mandalorians came to rain to save him; the day he became a darkness (a light -span).

This confirmation firmly blocks the event inside the clone era. It also allows us to position more precisely on the Star Wars temporal sequence.

With the wars clones starting in 22 Bby e The Mandalorian Set about 9-11 Aby, DIN would probably be between 30 and 1940s, depending on his age during the attack.

These details offer and a clearer image of the man behind Beskar, and while his journey continues, we will continue to know more about him and his past.

Din Djarin will return later alongside DIN GROGU IN The Mandalorian and the GoguReady for release in May 2026. According to the videos shown to Star Wars Celebration 2025, the film seems to be a fantastic adventure.
