We have now learned that Chapter 13 of The Mandalorian will be titled "The Jedi" and naturally, a lot of fans suspected that it'll be the episode that will mark the live-action debut of the beloved StarWars animated series character Ahsoka Tano, who will be played by Rosario Dawson. However, one fan theory suggests that Episode 5's title could be hinting at an appearance from a different Jedi and it isn't Ahsoka after all.

According to Reddit user TheMediocreCritic, the upcoming episode of the hit Disney+ series will see Ahsoka go on a journey with Mando and The Child to Dagobah to meet Master Yoda in hopes of finally unraveling the truth behind Baby Yoda's identity. Unaware of his demise, he speculates that the trio will cross paths with Luke Skywalker instead and although it remains to be seen, Luke turning up in TheMandalorian would be pretty epic.

It's an interesting theory but there's one issue surrounding Mark Hamill's potential involvement. Of course, the Star Wars veteran doesn't look the same like he did in the '80s when Return of the Jedi originally hit theaters and considering The Mandalorian takes place only five years after ROTJ, Hamill should obviously look on the younger side. There's always the option to de-age the legendary actor via CGI and that's a logical move. After all, they've done it in the franchise on a number of occasions. Let's not get too excited though and just wait for "The Jedi" to drop.

The Mandalorian Season 2 is now streaming on Disney+.
