Star Wars' New Hope or Same Old Routine? The Mandalorian and Grogu, Jon Favreau's ambitious big screen spinoff, has finally been screened for press ahead of its May 22 release date.
Reactions on social media are mixed, with some hailing it as a bold new direction for the franchise while others dismiss it as more of the same.
A notable departure from The Rise of Skywalker in 2019 is the film's decision to follow the Disney+ series' storyline rather than adhering to the traditional Star Wars timeline.
