With the focus shifting to 'The Mandalorian and Grogu' movie, the future of the series on Disney+ remains uncertain.

- The movie, titled 'The Mandalorian and Grogu,' is slated for a 2026 release, raising questions about the future of the series on Disney+.
- Lucasfilm's shift towards a movie could indicate a broader strategy to return 'Star Wars' to the big screen, amidst a range of other planned projects.
