10 Star Wars Cliffhangers That Will Never Be Resolved

9. What Is Yoda's Species Called?

Perhaps the single most agonising and debated cliffhanger in Star Wars history is the ambiguous nature of Yoda - namely, what species do he, Grogu, and others like them belong to?

Star Wars has never given a name to Yoda's species, as has only enhanced the mystique and fan intrigue surrounding them.

As such, even with Grogu being such a phenomenally popular character right now, it seems unlikely that this mystery will ever be resolved.

After all, fans have been left hanging on the question for so long now - literally over 40 years at this point - that even the most creative and imaginative answer surely wouldn't live up to the hype.

It's probably better to simply let the enigma live on forever more, rather than demystify something that's maintained consistent interest and discourse for the better part of a half-century.
