It may be just four months or so away, but much of The Mandalorian and Grogu, the first Star Wars film since 2019’s The Rise of Skywalker, remains shrouded in mystery. But after we got a very broad teaser that leaned more on Star Wars familiarity than telling us what’s up with our titular heroes, people would’ve expected that our next look at the film would at least give us a little more of an inkling about what’s pulling Din and his ward back into the fight. But don’t expect that just yet.
During the Super Bowl, Lucasfilm released the latest teaser for The Mandalorian and Grogu. Set after the events of the streaming series’ third season, the movie follows up on Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) and the youngling Grogu after their retirement to Navarro in the wake of the re-liberation of Mandalore, and Din’s newest job working as a freelance agent of the burgeoning New Republic. This teaser, however? It’s still vibes, it’s just this time it’s in the snow.
The new teaser comes after practically months of silence since the initial trailer, a tactic that The Mandalorian is more than familiar with, maintaining an air of secrecy for as much as possible in the run-up to each season’s debut on Disney+. Even as the new film draws even closer, it looks like we’re still going to have to wait and see what makes this film worth heading out to theaters for instead of a fourth season on Disney+.
The Mandalorian and Grogu, which also stars Sigourney Weaver as New Republic officer Colonel Ward, and Jeremy Allen White as Clone Wars character Rotta the Hutt, hits theaters May 22.
