A fresh photo from the upcoming Star Wars film The Mandalorian and Grogu has been unveiled by USA Today. The image depicts the title characters in an action sequence inside an AT-AT walker. The movie, directed by Jon Favreau, is set for theatrical release on May 22.
The Mandalorian and Grogu marks the first Star Wars theatrical release of the decade, arriving just over five months from now. While fans await a second trailer—possibly during an NFL playoff game—the single teaser from September offers limited glimpses. This new image, sourced from USA Today, captures Pedro Pascal's Mandalorian and Grogu amid an intense scene within an Imperial AT-AT, echoing a sequence briefly shown in the trailer and extended at Star Wars Celebration Japan.
The photo highlights a dynamic moment, with the Mandalorian navigating the walker's corridors in combat. Observers note the costume's appearance, describing the underlayer as somewhat baggy, though expectations remain high for the film's overall production quality. Beyond visuals, the image provides no new insights into the plot, which continues the duo's galactic adventures involving action and creatures, but leaves questions about the narrative's cinematic scope unanswered.
Directed and written by Jon Favreau, the film stars Pedro Pascal alongside Sigourney Weaver, with Jeremy Allen White providing a voice role. It builds on the popularity of the original Mandalorian series, transitioning the characters to the big screen. As anticipation builds, this release reassures fans of the central duo's presence, even if story details stay elusive.
