The First ‘The Mandalorian And Grogu’ Clip Is Unsurprisingly Underwhelming
Favreau showed a 45-second action scene as Disney promotes the film ahead of its May 22 release.
- Director Jon Favreau appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live Tuesday to promote The Mandalorian and Grogu, debuting a 45-second action clip featuring a landspeeder chase where Grogu attempts to fire missiles at pursuing Stormtroopers.
- Originally planned as a fourth season involving Grand Admiral Thrawn and Ahsoka, the project was restructured as a reboot by Dave Filoni, who now leads Lucasfilm's creative direction and shifted it to stand independently.
- The production marks the first Star Wars film in 6.5 years and, with a reported $166 million budget, represents the lowest spending for a Disney-released entry in the franchise.
- Critics labeled the visual quality "cheap" following the clip's release, and the film notably failed to secure a spot on Fandango's list of top 10 most-anticipated summer releases.
- The movie releases in theaters on May 22, and while expectations for another billion-dollar performance seem out of reach, fans remain hopeful the project will capture the joy Star Wars has provided.
