The Mandalorian And Grogu has arrived in cinemas worldwide, but is there a post-credits scene? Find out everything below.
The first big screen entry in the Star Wars franchise since The Rise Of Skywalker in 2019, it is a theatrical version of The Mandalorian television series, which followed the title character, also known as Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) and his ward Grogu.
The new film also stars The Bear’s Jeremy Allen White as Rotta The Hutt, the son of Star Wars legend Jabba, and it was released into cinemas on Friday (May 22).
Jon Favreau has directed the film and has written it alongside Dave Filoni and Noah Kloor, and it tells the story of the two lead characters being enlisted by the New Republic to rescue Rotta in exchange for information on a target.
NME has given the film a four star review, noting: “Some viewers will moan about the occasionally unconvincing CGI but what matters more is the wider input of director Jon Favreau, whose screenplay was written alongside regular The Mandalorian creatives Dave Filoni and Noah Kloors.”
“Favreau also runs the TV show, so understandably the cool, fun tone is in keeping with the hit spin-off show while his MCU experience as Iron Man director means he knows how to make huge franchise features with plenty of heart and energy. He’s the right man for the job, just like Pascal – among the coolest leading men around and the best choice for Mando, even if we only see his face for a few minutes. It’s an entertaining trip to a galaxy far, far away that proves there’s still cinematic life in this universe.”
Does The Mandalorian And Grogu have a post-credits scene?
As the first Star Wars film since 2019 and the first non-Skywalker saga big screen outing, The Mandalorian And Grogu breaks with some core traditions of the franchise.
For the first time, a Star Wars film includes opening credits for the cast and crew, airing the list of names as Din Djarin and Grogu land at their base at the New Republic in the opening scene.
It also means at the end of the film, there is no post-credits scene, meaning there is no further footage following the film’s climactic moments that audiences will have to stay seated for.
