50 free Grogu trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Aug 2026.
Grogu was a secret so tightly held that Disney skipped a Christmas of toy sales to keep him off shelves before The Mandalorian aired. The gamble paid off: within a week the little green foundling was drawing more social-media interactions than any 2020 presidential candidate, and Jon Favreau's cocktail-napkin idea had become the face of Disney+. These 50 questions follow him from Arvala-7 to Nal Hutta. The easy tier covers the nickname, his age, the mudhorn and the Jedi who finally learned his name. The middle asks about Legacy Effects' animatronic, the bat-eared fox behind his voice, the Force-choke that worried fans and the beskar chain mail he chose over Yoda's lightsaber. The expert tier reaches for the concept artist who defined him, the comedian who punched him, the state that loved him most and a fossil salamander that borrowed his name, before finishing on The Mandalorian and Grogu, the 2026 film. Every answer is cited to a page we checked and comes with a short explanation, so you learn something even on a miss. Play it solo or print it for a Star Wars night.
