The Mandalorian and Grogu follows Din Djarin and his young apprentice Grogu as the New Republic enlists them to take on a mission in a galaxy still haunted by Imperial warlords. It is a story of an unlikely partnership — a hardened bounty hunter and a small, strange ward bound by shared danger — set against a frontier where the old war's consequences refuse to settle. The taste it signals is for grit tempered by warmth, morally tangled missions, and loyalty that needs no explanation.
Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu is a 2026 American science fiction film directed by Jon Favreau, who co-wrote the film with Dave Filoni and Noah Kloor. Produced by Lucasfilm and Fairview Entertainment, and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures, it is part of the Star Wars franchise and serves as a continuation of the Disney+ television series The Mandalorian (2019–2023). Pedro Pascal stars as Din Djarin / The Mandalorian—who was also portrayed on set by Brendan Wayne and Lateef Crowder—alongside Jeremy Allen White, Jonny Coyne, Martin Scorsese, and Sigourney Weaver. In the film, which is set following the fall of the Galactic Empire, Djarin and his apprentice Grogu are enlisted by the New Republic to rescue Rotta the Hutt (White) in exchange for information on a target.
