This is the way… to an all-new adventure at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge! When The Mandalorian and Grogu movie hits theaters in 2026, it won’t just stay on the big screen — a brand-new mission featuring everyone’s favorite bounty hunter and his adorable sidekick is coming to Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run.
The exciting news was shared during Horizons: Disney Experiences Showcase at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event. Star Wars creative executive Dave Filoni joined Disney Experiences Chairman Josh D’Amaro onstage to give fans a sneak peek at what’s coming to Galaxy’s Edge at both Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort.
Fly with Mando and Grogu
Filoni explained that Lucasfilm has been using Epic’s Unreal Engine to create the virtual sets for The Mandalorian series — and now, that same technology will help power the new mission. Thanks to an expanded partnership between Disney and Epic Games, the latest adventure at Smugglers Run will be more immersive and visually stunning than ever.
“The intersection of storytelling and innovation has always been central to Lucasfilm, and we’re excited to see where this collaboration will take us next,” Filoni told the crowd. “Just imagine it: you’ll be able to fly alongside Mando and Grogu on thrilling, and dangerous, missions.”
What to Expect
While details are still under wraps, it’s safe to say that this new mission will feature high-stakes action, unexpected twists, and maybe even a few familiar faces from the galaxy far, far away. Whether you’re in the pilot’s seat or the gunner’s chair, you’ll get to be part of the action alongside Mando and Grogu.
When Can We Fly?
The new mission is set to launch alongside the release of The Mandalorian and Grogu in 2026. So, gather your crew, brush up on your flying skills, and get ready to take the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy on an unforgettable adventure.
