Overview
- Lucasfilm and Disney released the final trailer for The Mandalorian and Grogu, setting up the first Star Wars movie in seven years with a late-May rollout after the project shifted from a planned Disney+ season during the 2023 strikes.
- The production says the film includes more than 40 minutes shot for IMAX, which uses taller, larger screens to show extra image at the top and bottom.
- The story is set after Return of the Jedi and before The Force Awakens, following Din Djarin on a high-risk search for Rotta as Imperial remnants threaten the New Republic.
- Jon Favreau directs and co-wrote with Dave Filoni, with Pedro Pascal returning as Din Djarin, Sigourney Weaver joining as a veteran pilot named Ward, Jeremy Allen White as Rotta, Jonny Coyne as an Imperial warlord, and a cameo by Martin Scorsese.
- Social media posts show Cinépolis-branded stackable cups and a Yoda popcorn bucket tied to the release, though the exhibitor has not confirmed these collectibles.
