“Star Wars” fans, the wait for a trailer is finally over. Disney has dropped the first teaser for “The Mandalorian and Grogu,” giving us our first big-screen glimpse of the beloved duo in action. Even better, the movie now has a confirmed release date: May 22, 2026. Personally, I think they missed a perfect opportunity not to release it on May the 4th (aka Star Wars Day).
The beloved Disney Plus series continues on the big screen, following the duo as they embark on their most daring mission yet, enlisted by the New Republic to safeguard the legacy of the Rebellion.
Directed by Jon Favreau, who co-wrote the movie with Dave Filoni, “The Mandalorian and Grogu” looks like an epic continuation that feels like a worthy replacement for season 4 (and it seems like the duo will be sticking around on the big screen for the foreseeable future).
Watch On
The first trailer clearly keeps any major plot details under wraps, but it’s packed with glimpses that fans will love. The Razor Crest is back with a new upgrade, and familiar faces like Zeb Orrelios in live-action form, while Grogu has some fun hanging out with an adorable group of Anzellans.
We also get a look at Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) and Grogu embarking on a brand-new mission, complete with a moment of Grogu using a tiny telescope. The trailer teases Jeremy Allen White as Rotta the Hutt, Jabba’s son, alongside Sigourney Weaver as Colonel Ward, a “seasoned veteran pilot from the Rebellion” now serving the New Republic, who enlists the duo to help stabilize the galaxy.
Action-packed moments show our heroes also taking down AT-ATs and competing in underground gladiatorial fights, hinting at explosive adventures across the galaxy.
The teaser synopsis reads: “The evil Empire has fallen, and Imperial warlords remain scattered throughout the galaxy. As the fledgling New Republic works to protect everything the Rebellion fought for, they have enlisted the help of legendary Mandalorian bounty hunter Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) and his young apprentice Grogu.”
