The Star Wars franchise is set to expand further with the upcoming film, The Mandalorian & Grogu. Unlike previous Star Wars movies that received budgets exceeding $300 million, this new chapter will reportedly have a budget not exceeding $120 million. This budget, though significantly lower, may not be a cause for concern considering the success of The Mandalorian series, which had a budget of $15 million per episode for its first season.
The Mandalorian & Grogu will be a 2-hour movie, set to start filming in Los Angeles on June 17, 2024. Directed by Jon Favreau, the movie is an unexpected addition to The Mandalorian timeline, sparking questions about whether it replaces or complements the show's fourth season.
