Overview
- USA Today released a fresh still featuring Din Djarin and Grogu aboard a familiar ship, following limited in‑theater teaser runs attached to Zootopia 2 and Avatar: Fire and Ash as fans await a wider trailer.
- Jon Favreau’s The Mandalorian and Grogu opens May 22, 2026, was filmed for IMAX, and centers on missions against the Imperial Remnant, with Sigourney Weaver as Admiral Ward and Jeremy Allen White voicing Rotta the Hutt.
- Multiple outlets, citing insider Daniel Richtman via The Direct, report Lucasfilm has no additional Mandalorian‑era projects planned beyond Ahsoka Season 2 for now, with Dave Filoni’s previously announced crossover described as uncertain.
- Puck News and Forbes reporting indicates a leadership shift placing Dave Filoni and Lynwen Brennan in top roles as Kathleen Kennedy exits, a change tied by outlets to the current reassessment of projects.
- Forbes flags soft early online engagement for the film’s first teaser and notes the three‑year gap since Season 3, even as Lucasfilm’s official slate currently lists only two films: The Mandalorian and Grogu (2026) and Shawn Levy’s Starfighter (2027).
