Director Jon Favreau is doing all he can to shake off accusations that The Mandalorian and Grogu is just a big-screen TV episode.
"That level of spectacle is what I was aspiring to," Favreau told SFX magazine of the scale present during Mando's feature-length outing. "You really want to pull out all the stops, because people are asking, ‘Okay, is this just the TV show [on the big screen]?’ Well, there’s only one way to answer that question, and that’s to sit in a movie theater and watch it. I have to make my case that we made the most of this opportunity."
