Summary
Star Warshas maintained its July 12, 2025, release date forThe Mandalorian & Grogumovie, but that may not be the best call.The Mandalorian & Groguis one of the most anticipated ofStar Wars’upcoming movies. In fact, this will be a particularly exciting addition toStar Warsmovies and TV shows.
Not only is this movie going to build onThe Mandalorian, one ofStar Wars’best TV shows, but it will also be the first of its kind in the franchise. Specifically,The Mandalorian & Grogurepresents a jump from the small screen to the big screen for Din Djarin and Grogu, proving how significant they are inStar Wars. However, even with all that anticipation,The Mandalorian & Grogunow faces a major problem with its release date, and it doesn’t seem the franchise is changing its mind.
Everything We Know About The Mandalorian & Grogu Movie
The Mandalorian’s story will continue with a Star Wars movie. Here’s everything we know about the project, including cast, release, and timeline.
The Mandalorian Movie Will Still Release The Same Month As Avengers: Doomsday
The Mandalorian & Grogu’sMay 22, 2026, release date was confirmed some time ago. However, that was before the MCU made several announcements,chief among them being the July 29, 2025, release date ofAvengers: Doomsday. While that conflict would be significant enough,Doomsdaywill also be featuring none other than Robert Downey Jr., an incredibly popular actor in general but especially in the MCU, as Doctor Doom.
This poses a significant issue forThe Mandalorian & Groguat the box office.
This poses a significant issue forThe Mandalorian & Groguat the box office. Yes,The Mandalorianhas been incredibly popular in the franchise, butStar Warswill undoubtedly struggle to compete with something as massive as the newestAvengersmovie. This added information about the movie’s casting has only intensified the problems this could cause forThe Mandalorian & Grogu.
Is Star Wars Making The Right Choice?
In truth,Star Warsis taking a massive gamble by leavingThe Mandalorian & Grogu’srelease date as it is. This movie will already be a bit of a tough act in the franchise. After all, making a jump from television to the big screen is no small feat, andStar Warsis a franchise that frequently faces issues such as review bombing and intense backlash—often even before the movie or TV show has premiered. Presumably,The Mandalorian & Groguwill have all of this to navigate; now,Doomsdayis adding more complexity and risk to the movie’s success.

Despite the riskiness of this decision,Star Warsdoesn’t seem to be making any moves to changeThe Mandalorian & Grogu’srelease date. Of course,Doomsdaywill have already been out in theaters for a few weeks prior toThe Mandalorian & Grogu’srelease, which will perhaps mean less competing interest. Nevertheless, it remains to be seen whetherStar Warsis truly making the right choice by keepingThe Mandalorian & Grogu’sMay 22, 2026, release date the same.
