The Mandalorian & Grogu Head To The Big Screen

The Mandalorian & Grogu Head To The Big Screen

, , , , , , 8

The Star Wars franchise has gone in some wild directions lately; the last few movies didn’t perform so hot, while a TV show on Disney+ became massively popular. Now things are coming full circle: Lucasfilm has announced The Mandalorian & Grogu, a feature film starring both characters. The feature will be produced and directed by Dave Favreau, the showrunner of the TV series. The ever-present Kathleen Kennedy and Dave Filoni will also be involved to some extent. “I have loved telling stories set in the rich world that George Lucas created,” says Favreau. “The prospect of bringing the Mandalorian and his apprentice Grogu to the big screen is extremely exciting.” As for a possible Season 4 of The Mandalorian, there is still no word on that, so…we presume this is what we’re getting instead. (UPDATE: Season 4 is still possible.) But the TV landscape won’t be devoid of wars in the stars: Lucasfilm also confirmed a second season of Ahsoka today. The first season of Ahsoka premiered on Disney+ last

The Next Ahsoka Episode Will Play In Theaters

The Next Ahsoka Episode Will Play In Theaters

We take it the new Ahsoka show is doing well for Disney. Otherwise they wouldn’t be offering such a wild bonus next week: if you live near a participating theater, you have the option of seeing Episode 5 on the big screen at the time of premiere, though the window is tight. We don’t just mean the fact that it premieres in a matter of days, we mean just one theater per city is getting this privilege. The event is being held in coordination with AMC and the ten participating cities are Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, New York City, Orlando, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Seattle and Washington DC. And according to the website…..ALL tickets are sold out in those locations, though there is a waitlist. Disney isn’t telling us what happens in Episode 5, so all we have to go on is what happened in Episode 4. Desperate to be reunited with Ezra Bridger above all else, Sabine willingly surrendered the map sphere and she was then taken prisoner by

All the great ones had to get their start somewhere, and Ahsoka Tano’s big break came when she was chosen as the apprentice of Anakin Skywalker…the “Chosen One,” or at least believed to be at the time. Hitching a wagon so close to the Man Who Would Be Vader could have ended badly for Ahsoka, but she bailed his company just in time and has followed her own path ever since. Much of that post-Anakin path was told in the animated series Star Wars Rebels. Ahsoka has a presence in the first two seasons of that show as well as the last episode. It’s been made very clear by now that the Ahsoka series directly continues the storyline from that series. If you didn’t heed my warning last time that binging Rebels was strongly advised, well, it’s too late at just ten days left. Besides, I warned you months ago, so…it’s your own fault, buddy. Not only will we see live-action versions of Ezra Bridger, Sabine Wren and Hera Syndulla,

New Ahsoka Trailer Reveals Rebels Reunion

New Ahsoka Trailer Reveals Rebels Reunion

, , , , 13

Ahsoka’s own show is fast approaching Disney+ at light speed, and the first full trailer was released this morning. It makes clear what executive producer Dave Filoni has been implying this whole time: the show is an outright sequel to Star Wars Rebels. Filoni has been in charge of the television side of Star Wars since the Clone Wars CG series premiered — and introduced Anakin’s apprentice Ahsoka Tano with it. Since then the character has grown to be a fan favorite, and Filoni has put her in almost every series he’s done since, whenever possible (she was only absent from Obi-Wan Kenobi). Rebels was the first show Ahsoka appeared in as an adult, and The Mandalorian was the first show to portray her in live action (played by Rosario Dawson). It all comes together in the self-titled Ahsoka, which reunites Tano with her old friends, the Twilek Hera Syndulla and the Mandalorian Sabine Wren. Ever since Rebels ended they’ve been searching for Ezra Bridger, that show’s central character (and

After George Lucas wrapped up his theatrical Star Wars movies “forever” with Revenge of the Sith, he turned to animation to tell some stories that occurred in between the prequel trilogy. The Clone Wars was the result, a CGI cartoon that debuted its pilot on the big screen and, there, revealed a new character that had not made any appearance in any of the movies: Ahsoka Tano. Ahsoka wasn’t just anyone…she was Anakin’s own apprentice. Through that connection, she would unavoidably be in nearly every episode, and Star Wars was taking a risk with that (we had already seen what happens when the audience doesn’t like a character). The gamble paid off this time, however…people loved Ahsoka. She generated a fanbase over the seasons of The Clone Wars that became increasingly worried about her absence in the movies and what that could mean. Where did she go by the time Anakin flipped out, became Vader and ordered all Jedi dead? Clone Wars producer Dave Filoni was about to answer that

Star Wars Celebration Info-Dump: A Galaxy Of New Movies And Shows

Disney could release information on their upcoming Star Wars things one at a time, like most other companies, but instead they usually cram everything into these big conferences two or three times a year, forcing us poor reporters to rush around and get everything up before everyone else does. The “Star Wars Celebration” conference took place this morning and Lucasfilm laid out all they have planned for the next year, and a few years after that. This time, there was more of an emphasis on the future of Star Wars in the movies, something we haven’t heard about since 2019. Despite prior plans, they aren’t committing to a new trilogy, just a few separate ideas — which is probably for the better. But there are a lot of TV shows in the works too. Read on for a Star Destroyer-sized infodump. Oh yeah, and if you’re one of those people who won’t stop complaining about how “bad” Star Wars is now, and how no one else can enjoy it because

The future of Star Wars is….definitely NOT in the theaters. After overcooking the franchise with three rushed sequel movies and a couple of spinoffs, Disney noticed how The Mandalorian made a significantly larger cultural splash than Rise Of Skywalker, and decided “fine, it’s a TV thing from now on.” All the theatrical projects Lucasfilm has announced in previous years are now “on hold.” But we’re sure getting a lot more shows! Obi-Wan arrives in one week and after that’s done, you can look forward to something called Andor later this summer. It stars Diego Luna, and we assume he is reprising his role from Rogue One, as it’s about the very beginnings of the Rebellion against the Empire. After that, 2022 gets a little murky, but 2023 sounds packed. It will be the year we finally get the Ahsoka show, starring Rosario Dawson as the title character (as she was in The Mandalorian and Book of Boba Fett). There will also be something that doesn’t have a title yet, which

Watch The First Trailer For Star Wars: The Clone Wars’ Return Season

Watch The First Trailer For Star Wars: The Clone Wars’ Return Season

One of many reasons we’re hyped about the upcoming Disney+ streaming service is that its existence gives Disney an excuse to produce the “lost” seventh season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, the arc that was meant to wrap the series up. The Clone Wars was cancelled midway through its sixth season due to Disney’s purchase of Lucasfilm and their desire (back then) to take the TV department in a different direction. Now, thanks to an event called Star Wars Celebration, we get our first real look at the new, resurrected season. The trailer was shown off 52 minutes into the Clone Wars panel at the event. Since I didn’t actually watch The Clone Wars when it was running, I’m not entirely clear on the events of this trailer and who everyone is in it. I do know Ahsoka was Anakin’s apprentice, but she split ties with him towards the end of the original run (the scene in question opens this trailer). Everyone wondered if Ahsoka was going to live
