The Mandalorian and Grogu may have its first new cast member, and she’s a sci-fi legend.
Star Wars started 2024 with a big announcement: a Mandalorian movie called The Mandalorian & Grogu will be the next franchise entry to hit theaters.
Star Wars is a franchise with a lot of characters, but all of them all feel rooted in a particular place in time. You can feel that the Skywalker twins and Han Solo are products of the late 1970s to some degree or another.
