Grogu Steals the Show: The “Mando” Press Tour Begins

The Force is officially with us! Today, May 11, marks the official start of the global press tour for The Mandalorian & Grogu, and the little green guy is already stealing every headline. In a “mind-blowing” futuristic update, Disney debuted a new animatronic Grogu during the London press stop that is so lifelike, it reportedly “fooled” several journalists into thinking it was a puppet with a soul.   

This high-energy tour is building massive momentum for the May 22 release. While the film faces stiff competition from the Prada sequel, the emotional connection fans have with the “Mando-Grogu” duo is expected to drive record-breaking ticket sales. Directed by Jon Favreau, the film is being billed as a “cinematic homecoming” for Star Wars fans. With Grogu making appearances on talk shows across Europe this week, the positive energy surrounding the project is palpable. Whether you’re a Jedi or a Bounty Hunter, the world is ready to follow the “Child” into his biggest adventure yet.
