“Jon and I had a great time working on that, as we always do,” he told ExtraTV. “It was great seeing Grogu. He’s become such a star. It’s amazing how it’s evolved. What we can do now with the puppetry compared to Season 1 and where we are today in a film. Working with a team — I worked quite a bit with them on the puppetry legacy effects. They did a fantastic job, and what a wonderful little creation Grogu is.”

‘The Mandalorian’s’ Biggest Test Yet

Previously, however, the heroes’ journey has been confined to streaming. Now, the reserved Mandalorin and his apprentice are ready to conquer the big screen.
