During the Super Bowl, fans of Star Wars were excited to see the first trailer for the new movie, The Mandalorian & Grogu. However, instead of a trailer, Lucasfilm and Disney showed a short, comedic ad—a take on old Budweiser commercials—that didn’t include any actual footage from the film. This caused a lot of disappointment and concern that the movie might not be very good. The strong reaction from fans eventually led to what they were hoping for: new footage from The Mandalorian & Grogu has finally been released.
Get ready for a new trailer! Lucasfilm will be releasing the full trailer for Star Wars: The Mandalorian & Grogu tomorrow, February 17th. They’ve already given fans a sneak peek with a short teaser that includes actual footage from the movie. The teaser features both the Mandalorian and Grogu, including a funny moment of Grogu playing with the controls of their ship. It also hints at other characters and a group of rebel fighters who will appear in the film.
The Mandalorian & Grogu Footage Finally Revealed After Star Wars Backlash
Despite lasting just fifteen seconds, the teaser for The Mandalorian & Grogu quickly got fans talking. There was a lot of anticipation for the Super Bowl spot, as it was expected to be the first new look at the movie since a brief teaser in September. When it didn’t show much about the actual film, many viewers were disappointed. It’s possible Disney always intended to release the full trailer this week, but their quick response to the criticism suggests they may have changed their plans.
The short trailer has already generated a lot of excitement among fans. It begins with a sweeping shot of ships flying towards the horizon – a style Lucasfilm has used frequently lately. Unlike a similar scene in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, this one features Rebel Alliance ships, including both X-Wings and a Y-Wing. This, along with a glimpse of an R2 unit, suggests that the Mandalorian may be collaborating with the new Republic after the Empire’s fall.
As a big Star Wars fan, I’ve been following the marketing for The Mandalorian & Grogu, and honestly, I’m a little puzzled. The biggest complaint I’m seeing from other fans – and I share it – is that we just don’t know why we should be excited to see this movie. Lucasfilm is keeping the story completely under wraps, which is unusual. Even though The Mandalorian series felt like it gave Din and Grogu a pretty satisfying ending, here we are getting a film anyway. The challenge is that we’ve only known these characters through the TV show, and the series was specifically made to feel like a movie. So, some of us are worried about essentially paying to see a TV episode on the big screen. The marketing needs to address that quickly, and thankfully, the full trailer drops tomorrow, which hopefully will finally give us a reason to get hyped!
