"It's been two years since we last saw Din Djarin and young Force user Grogu in The Mandalorian, and now they're moving up in the galaxy with The Mandalorian and Grogu, the next Star Wars film to hit theaters. A new trailer has given us our first look at the movie, and it looks set to recapture the magic of Disney+'s first Star Wars show, complete with plenty of strange creatures and aliens both beloved and obscure."
"The first familiar creature in the trailer is an Anzellan, the diminutive species to which Babu Frik belongs. Since they're the same size as Grogu, it appears they get along like a house on fire. In fact, one of the trailer's few lines of dialogue is given by an Anzellan: in the final moments, Grogu uses the Force to defend against a one-eyed sewer rat, and his Anzellan friend says, "Nice shot, baby!" Seems like the Baby Yoda moniker has stuck with Grogu."
"One of the trailer's more shadowy figures is a flat-headed reptilian species. However, this is actually one of Star Wars' most established beings. That's an Amani, a species that first appeared in Jabba's palace in Return of the Jedi. There's no telling what this creature is up to in The Mandalorian and Grogu, but while clearly threatening, it doesn't appear to be a bounty hunter like what we saw decades ago."
Din Djarin and Grogu return in a theatrical Star Wars film titled The Mandalorian and Grogu after a two-year gap. A fresh trailer showcases numerous familiar and obscure alien species and creatures, signaling a tonal return to the Disney+ series with strange fauna and action set pieces. Anzellans appear alongside Grogu and interact playfully, including an Anzellan line praising Grogu's Force use. An Amani reptilian figure, first seen in Jabba's palace, appears as a shadowy but threatening presence. Garazeb "Zeb" Orrelios returns as an ally, and a Mantellian Savrip features in a gladiatorial arena.
