The Mandalorian & Grogu First Footage Revealed, Including What Might be Hoth - D23 2024

Amid lots of other Star Wars news, including our first looks at Andor Season 2 and Star Wars: Skeleton Crew, John Favreau and Dave Filoni took the stage to give us our first look at The Mandalorian & Grogu — the anticipated film that will mark Star Wars' return to the big screen after an extended hiatus.

While the film only just started shooting, Favreau and Filoni still took the time to show off some initial footage featuring Grogu in his pod, Mando in his full armor, and a reminder that they are a "clan of two."

“This youngling is my apprentice. I’m a bounty hunter by trade, now that he is in my care, i’ll be more selective in my assignments," Mando says his clip.

After that we get several quick images, including Zeb, Grogu crawling through a tunnel, a GNK power droid, and what looks like Hoth (or just a snowy planet). In addition to the initial footage, Mandalorian & Grogu also received a new logo, which you can see below.

The Mandalorian & Grogu was revealed back in January with Favreau confirmed to be helming the film as the director. It will lead "Lucasfilm's ongoing feature-development slate," which also includes films by Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, James Mangold, and Dave Filoni.

Lucasfilm recently wrapped up Star Wars: The Acolyte, which received a mixed reception from fans on Disney+. As for Mando and Grogu, they last saw action in 2023 with Mandalorian Season 3, which seemed to wrap up their stories... or did it? We'll known when The Mandlorian & Grogu releases in May 2026.

As for the rest of D23 2024, there have been plenty of big announcements, including confirmation of The Incredibles 3, first details on Toy Story 5, and more. Stay tuned to IGN throughout the weekend as the show continues.
