Lucasfilm boss Dave Filoni says The Mandalorian and Grogu is "a big celebration" of the duo and "a completely different era of Star Wars" compared to The Force Awakens

Pedro Pascal as Din Djarin unmasked in The Mandalorian and Grogu.

It's only a few months until The Mandalorian and Grogu finally lands, bringing Star Wars back to the big screen for the first time in six years.

But, by the sounds of things, it won't be like previous films we've seen in the saga. "Episode VII was a completely different entity,” Dave Filoni, co-writer and second-unit director of The Mandalorian and Grogu, and who is also the president and chief creative officer of Lucasfilm, told Empire magazine.
