Film Synopsis
Following multiple seasons of The Mandalorian on Disney+, the series’ first theatrical adventure follows Din Djarin and Grogu as they embark on their biggest mission yet, venturing to new worlds, encountering fresh allies and dangerous enemies, and participating in plenty of familiar Star Wars action.
The evil Empire has fallen, and Imperial warlords remain scattered throughout the galaxy. As the fledgling New Republic works to protect everything the Rebellion fought for, they have enlisted the help of legendary Mandalorian bounty hunter Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) and his young apprentice Grogu.
The film introduces a new character played by Sigourney Weaver, while Jeremy Allen White and Martin Scorsese lend their voices to characters in the story. Jon Favreau directed from a screenplay he co-wrote with Dave Filoni and Noah Kloor.
