The Super Bowl gifted us a new trailer for the upcoming Star Wars movie, The Mandalorian and Grogu, and for that fact alone, we’re truly thankful. Pedro Pascal is back as Din Djarin (aka the Mandalorian), along with Grogu — or I suppose you could still call him Baby Yoda or The Child.
It’s been three years since season 3 of The Mandalorian ended on Disney Plus, so Mando’s return is a welcome one. The Mandalorian and Grogu will find the duo doing what they do best: Being best buds while traveling the galaxy. There’s a catch, though. They’ve been enlisted to protect the New Republic. The Galactic Empire may have fallen, but there are insidious evil-doers out there who threaten this new era of peace.
Sigourney Weaver also stars alongside The Bear’s Jeremy Allen White, who plays Rotta the Hutt (the son of Jabba), and Jonny Coyne, who plays an Imperial Warlord who leads a crew of those looking to keep the evil glory of the Galactic Empire alive.
Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu was directed by Jon Favreau, who co-wrote the script with Dave Filoni. It’ll premiere in theaters on Friday, May 22.
