Despite a major cameo in the Maul finale, fans are disappointed by the lack of Star Wars Day announcements: "Did Star Wars even do anything for May 4th?"

Star Wars fans feel like May 4th passed them by, as there was a surprising lack of news or announcements from the galaxy far, far away.

"Did star wars even do anything for may 4th. Any announcements? Or like did the maul finale drop and that was it," one fan wrote on Twitter.

"I was really expecting them to capitalize on the success of Hail Mary and promote Ryan Gosling in Starfighter leading up to Mando and Grogu but there was nothing once again Disney is fumbling the marketing," replied someone else. Star Wars: Starfighter is set to hit theaters in 2027.

"I really thought we were gonna have Ahsoka’s season two news but i was FOOLED," wrote another. Ahsoka season 2 has seemingly been confirmed for release this year, but very little has been revealed about the new installment yet.

"Was pretty much mainly the final two episodes of Maul: Shadow Lord. But honestly, with how incredible they were, that was more than enough for me," said another, more satisfied, fan.

Season 1 of animated series Maul – Shadow Lord came to an end this Star Wars Day, with a surprising cameo that gave fans a showdown almost 30 years in the making.

Next up from the galaxy far, far away is The Mandalorian and Grogu. Starring Pedro Pascal, Sigourney Weaver, and Jeremy Allen White, the movie is set in the aftermath of the fall of the Empire as Din Djarin and his small green ward are recruited by the New Republic to help protect what the Rebellion fought for.

The Mandalorian and Grogu arrives in theaters on May 22. In the meantime, catch up with our guide to the other upcoming Star Wars movies and shows on the way.
