Earlier in the week, Disney surprisingly revealed Din Djarin will be headlining two films. Along with Dave Filoni’s New Republic-era movie still potentially called Heir to the Empire, the Mandalorian will star in The Mandalorian & Grogu, which sees father and son go on a big-screen adventure.Read more...

Image: LucasfilmProduction on The Mandalorian & Grogu will begin in 2024—which, one might assume, would make it very difficult for star Pedro Pascal to be a part of this. After all, he will be shooting season two of The Last of Us for a few months starting in February and is likely to lead a Fantastic Four movie soon too, which almost certainly also has to film this year.So no Pedro? Not so fast. Pascal hasn’t been on set and in the suit for The Mandalorian for some time. That means Favreau could basically make the…

Godzilla Minus One stomps into U.S. theaters today, so director Takashi Yamazaki probably already has a lot on his plate right now. But goddammit, the man wants to do a Star Wars movie, and now I can think of nothing more perfect.“Even AI Rappers are Harassed by Police” | AI Unlocked“I watched Star Wars, and that’s how I ended up being a filmmaker,” Yamazaki recently told /Film about his hopes for what movies he could do next. “I’m really hoping I will get a call and they will bring me on Star Wars.” Look. Look. I know…

It took all of five days, but 8,000 people pledged $500 each and made it certain that Hasbro would be making its mega version of the Ghost from Star Wars Rebels and Ahsoka. The project, which was announced last week at San Diego Comic-Con, is the latest in Hasbro’s Haslab series. It’s the company’s version of Kickstarter where it conceives dream projects that would never usually get made, and then actually moves forward once a certain amount of people opt in. Andor Episodes 1-3 ReviewThe latest is the Ghost, which still…

A documentary on the making of Mandalorian season 3 is now on Disney+.Image: LucasfilmIt’s been two months since season three of The Mandalorian came to an end, and now it’s time to find out how they got there. This week, Disney+ released the latest episode of Disney Gallery: Star Wars The Mandalorian, a behind-the-scenes documentary about the making of the popular show. The first season of Disney Gallery was exactly that, a full season. But last year, it was boiled down to two episodes and this year, it’s just one. So,…

Forty years ago, Han Solo said it best. “Boba Fett? Boba Fett? Where?” After the character’s unexpected return in The Mandalorian season two, he got a full backstory in The Book of Boba Fett. But now it’s been well over a year and even after a full season of The Mandalorian, the first famous Mandalorian is still nowhere to be seen.Bryce Dallas Howard on a Feature Star Wars Film and Book of Boba FettWill he appear in Ahsoka? The Mandalorian season four? Another season of The Book of Boba Fett? One person who knows is…

When it was announced at Star Wars Celebration earlier this month, Dave Filoni’s “New Republic vs. Imperial Remnant” movie was teased as a culmination of plot threads woven throughout the “universe” of The Mandalorian and its connected TV series. But it seems like the director and producing partner Jonathan Favreau want to reach far, far beyond just those shows for characters to play with.‘I Started a Yoda Fan Club’Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Filoni and Favreau touched upon their plans to integrate as many Star Wars…

Image: LucasfilmThis season’s penultimate episode, Chapter 23, was called “The Spies,” which created unspoken tension that someone was going to betray the Mandalorians who went down to scout the surface of their former planet. That didn’t happen. In the finale, there were moments where we thought maybe a betrayal was coming—and again, nothing.So, who were “The Spies?” Well, we think the term “Spies” isn’t being used in a typical James Bond context. The term also has a biblical context that basically means a group of…

The first two seasons of The Mandalorian ended with some kind of big Star Wars twist. In season one, Moff Gideon pulled out the Darksaber. In season two, Luke Skywalker arrived to help Grogu. And the expectation of something on that level for the season three finale seemed completely reasonable. Instead, fans were given a laundry list of payoffs that helped bring the season together in a satisfying way, which worked but also felt maybe a little too straightforward for a show that has thrived on exciting surprises.Bryce…

The internet loves a good debate over perception, whether it’s the color of a dress or something else, and now we have one from The Mandalorian. And it’s a little bit naughty.Balancing Fan Expectations in The MandalorianIn the most recent episode of the show, “The Spies,” there’s a moment where an Anzellan brings in IG-12 for Grogu to use. He climbs out of it and jokingly avoids Grogu, a callback to the season’s first episode when Grogu gave a startled Anzellan a great big hug. “Bad baby,” the creature says. “No…
