Din Djarin and Grogu are coming to the big screen. Disney & Lucasfilm have officially announced a new "Star Wars" film for the cinema. In addition, "Ahsoka" has been given the green light for a second season.
The "Star Wars" series "The Mandalorian" about the duo Din Djarin and Grogu is getting its own cinema film, as Disney and Lucasfilm have announced. A start date is not yet known. However, production of "The Mandalorian & Grogu" is set to begin this year. A cinema release in 2025 would therefore not be out of the question, but it would be very ambitious. I could imagine a release at the end of December if everything goes according to plan.
The film will be directed by Jon Favreau, an old acquaintance who already worked closely with new Lucasfilm creative director Dave Filoni on "The Mandalorian". In addition to Favreau, Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy and Dave Filoni are also among the producers of the project.
Details about the plot are not yet known. Nor is it known whether Pedro Pascal will reprise his role as the Mandalorian or whether he will just be doing voice acting.
What's next for the series "The Mandalorian"?
It is also unclear whether there will be a fourth season of the series. In February last year, Jon Favreau hinted that he had already written the story for a fourth season. However, this could also be used for the realisation of the film. According to Deadline, an American media portal for film and television, the fourth season is still in development. There is speculation that the cinema film and the new season could be released at the same time.
My colleague Luca diligently writes a review for every episode. Why don't you take a look.
"Ahsoka" gets a second season
Although the series "Ahsoka" was initially only conceived as a mini-series, it is now getting a second season following the positive response from fans and critics. This was officially announced by Disney and Lucasfilm. Series creator Dave Filoni will develop the sequel and lead actress Rosario Dawson will also return.
The season finale of "Ahsoka" prompted my colleague Luca to speculate about how the "Star Wars" universe could continue in terms of plot.
More "Star Wars" films in the pipeline
After "Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker" from 2019, "The Mandalorian & Grogu" will lead the new series of "Star Wars" films. According to Disney, there are currently three more untitled films in the franchise, directed by Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, James Mangold and Filoni, scheduled for 22 May 2026, 18 December 2026 and a third film on 27 December 2027. However, such a release calendar is subject to change.
