And if you thought it was possible to end a movie like this without a climactic aerial combat scene involving X-wing fighters, think again. It is developed from the Disney+ streaming TV series The Mandalorian and set in the timeframe just after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/film\/2023\/may\/24\/return-of-the-jedi-at-40-star-wars-george-lucas\">Star Wars: Episode VI \u2013 Return of the Jedi<\/a>, in which holdout warlords from the defeated Empire are plotting a return against the New Republic.<\/p>\n<p>Pedro Pascal plays the Mandalorian, a badass freebooting bounty hunter not unlike Han Solo, only he has on his shoulder Grogu, his \u201cward\u201d. (That quaint Victorian term is revived here for the first time since the days of Dick Grayson and Bruce Wayne.) Grogu is the Yoda-species infant with nascent telekinetic powers. As for the Mandalorian, he has a voice like Clint Eastwood\u2019s man with no name, and in fact he\u2019s the guy with no face; he hardly ever removes his helmet \u2013 apart from in one key scene \u2013 despite the fact that it must surely restrict his visual field. And he must surely remove it occasionally to eat and drink and trim his moustache. Body-double actors Lateef Crowder and Brendan Wayne variously play the helmeted Mandalorian striding around, giving director Jon Favreau and Pascal exceptional leeway with the filming and voice-recording schedule. The Mandalorian is a vivid symbol of the importance of genre IP over old-fashioned star presence and the obvious comparison with Dave Prowse body-doubling Darth Vader is disconcerting.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/film\/2026\/may\/19\/star-wars-the-mandalorian-and-grogu-review-helmeted-hero-tangles-with-hateful-hutts-in-decent-feature-outing\">Continue reading&#8230;<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/film\/2026\/may\/19\/star-wars-the-mandalorian-and-grogu-review-helmeted-hero-tangles-with-hateful-hutts-in-decent-feature-outing\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"feedzy-rss-link-icon\">Read More<\/a><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.guim.co.uk\/img\/media\/c3f51e88a4a491a0d90ec8cf0194886ef79868be\/615_0_6440_5152\/master\/6440.jpg?width=140&amp;quality=85&amp;auto=format&amp;fit=max&amp;s=7fc40c6a9a7871124d65d10893a79bb4\" title=\"Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu review \u2013 helmeted hero tangles with hateful Hutts in decent feature outing\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The badass bounty hunter and his little green friend take on the Empire and Jabba the Hutt\u2019s family in this solid enough addition to the ever-expanding universe Here is a non-canonical, or semi-canonical tale \u2013 maybe the distinction is beginning to blur \u2013 from the Star Wars universe, serving up some entertaining but very familiar&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10945,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10944","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
