Pedro Pascal Returns in Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu Trailer

From the galaxy far, far away to the depths of space, heroes rise again. Din Djarin leads, Grogu charms, and Sigourney Weaver commands like Ripley reborn.

This looks nothing short of spectacular. The first look at Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu is here, and it promises to be an epic new chapter in the galaxy far, far away. Opening exclusively in theaters on May 22, 2026, this all-new adventure from Lucasfilm reunites fans with Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) and his ever-loyal companion, Grogu, as they embark on their most daring mission yet.

Set after the fall of the evil Empire, the galaxy is in a fragile state. Scattered Imperial warlords continue to threaten peace, and the fledgling New Republic must lean on heroes forged in battle. Enter Din Djarin, the legendary Mandalorian bounty hunter, brought to life by Pedro Pascal, whose commanding performances in The Last of Us, Game of Thrones, and Narcos have made him one of Hollywood’s most versatile stars. Pascal’s ability to balance grit, vulnerability, and quiet intensity has cemented Din Djarin as a modern Star Wars icon, and fans can expect him to deliver once again in this cinematic spectacle.

Adding to the excitement, The Mandalorian and Grogu is directed by Jon Favreau and stars Sigourney Weaver. Beloved by generations of sci-fi fans for her trailblazing role as Ellen Ripley in Alien where she redefined what it meant to be a fearless space hero. Weaver’s presence in a galaxy far, far away feels like a historic crossover of iconic sci-fi legacies. Just as Ripley battled xenomorphs with grit and resilience, her addition to Star Wars suggests audiences can expect a powerful, commanding performance that raises the stakes to interstellar heights.

With Pascal leading the charge, Weaver joining the galaxy, and Grogu stealing hearts as always, this film is shaping up to be not just a Star Wars adventure but a pop culture event that bridges decades of science fiction greatness.
