“I think the longevity of [the films] is really key to this one character [Gizmo], who is essentially like a baby,” director Joe Dante recently told the San Francisco Chronicle of the star of his classic Gremlins films. “Which brings me, of course, to the subject of Baby Yoda, who is completely stolen and is just out-and-out copied. Shamelessly, I would think.”
It’s quite a charge, but the two cuddly creatures with extraordinary powers, big eyes and expressive ears do look a lot alike when seen side by side. However, the initial inspiration for The Mandalorian’s Grugu — Baby Yoda’s actual name — undoubtedly predates the first Gremlins, which came out in 1984.

Mandalorian showrunner Jon Favreau explained to Deadline last year that he was thinking more about E.T. than Gizmo when conceiving the character.
“Dave [Filoni] had done a sketch of kind of a Michelangelo/E.T. moment, and that was a source of inspiration,” Favreau shared about the Child’s first scene. The sketch shows Grugu’s cradle afloat with his little hand reaching up out of it and Mando reaching back down to touch fingers. You can see that actual drawing in this Disney Gallery episode on The Mandalorian. The drawing combines Michelangelo’s “The Creation of Adam” and echoes Steven Spielberg’s famous alien.
“Then,” Favreau told Deadline, “Doug Chiang and the whole art department started generating drawings of it, and the Legacy [Effects] people built it.”
“We got lots and lots of drawings,” explained Favreau in the Disney Gallery episode. “Some of them

first announced in 2019, but after Joe Dante, director of “Gremlins” recently criticized “The Mandalorian” character of Grogu, “Baby Yoda,” for embodying a cheap imitation of Gizmo’s portrayal in the franchise, “Gremlins” reentered the conversation ahead of this week’s announcement.

Chris Pratt has responded to long-standing rumours he’s set to play Indiana Jones, saying it’ll never happen.Back in 2015, a Deadline report said Pratt was in talks to star in a rebooted version of Indiana Jones after Disney bought the rights to the character.It was later confirmed that the studio would be going ahead with Indiana Jones 5, with Harrison Ford playing the titular archaeologist. Ford went on to say it was “him or me” when it comes to Pratt starring in the film.In a new interview, Pratt has said it’s unlikely he’ll ever take on the role of Indiana Jones.“All I know is I once saw a quote from Harrison Ford and I don’t even know if it was really him, but it was enough to scare me, that was like, ‘When I die, Indiana Jones dies’,” Pratt said in an interview with the Happy, Sad, Confused podcast.“And I’m like, ‘am I gonna get haunted by the ghost of Harrison Ford one day when he dies if I play (Indiana Jones),” continued Pratt.Ford once said “Don’t you get it?

Is this town not big enough for the both of the cute babies in the pop culture universe? You might think we’re talking about Baby Yoda and Baby Groot, but no, the director of “Gremlins” now has beef with Lucasfilm’s “Star Wars” character Grogu, aka Baby Yoda, first introduced into the galaxy in “The Mandalorian” series.
San Francisco Chronicle that “The Mandalorian” breakout character Grogu (AKA Baby Yoda) is a blatant copy of his notoriously cute yet feisty creature creations. The “Gremlins” franchise began with the 1984 horror comedy that spawned a 1990 sequel, toys and collectibles, books, video games, and TV spinoffs with the main gremlin, Gizmo, serving as its adorable epicenter.
Gremlins director Joe Dante has hit out at The Mandalorian for “shamelessly” copying Gizmo to create Baby Yoda.The filmmaker is set to return to the franchise as a consultant on forthcoming HBO Max series Gremlins: Secrets Of The Mogwai, and recently reflected on the characters’ legacy.“I think the longevity of [the films] is really key to this one character [Gizmo], who is essentially like a baby,” Dante told the San Francisco Chronicle.He went on to criticise the Star Wars spinoff series which introduced Baby Yoda, whose real name is Grogu and is often referred to as The Child.Dante added: “Which brings me, of course, to the subject of Baby Yoda, who is completely stolen and is just out-and-out copied. Shamelessly, I would think.”Disney+ and Lucasfilm have not responded to Dante’s comments.Baby Yoda was first introduced in the Disney+ series in 2019.
Joe Dante is slamming Disney for what he sees as a case of plagiarism.
