s at Star Wars Celebration 2025, The Mandalorian & Grogu featured the film's inspirations, details on new and returning characters, and a new look at Pedro Pascal without his helmet. ScreenRant's attendance at Star Wars Celebration also provided key insight into the project.

Speaking to Pedro Pascal, ScreenRant's own Molly Brizzell inquired about Din Djarin in the film and whether he would be helmetless this time around. This topic has stirred much curiosity since The Mandalorian season 3, which saw Din Djarin return to keeping his helmet on in front of others despite many Mandalorian traditions being challenged:

"I hope so, I really do. I know everything that there is to know, and I'm not gonna tell you any of it because I want you to experience it. I want everyone to experience the incredible surprises that are in store in one of the greatest adventure movies that has ever been made. I mean that."

Pascal's comments confirm that he shares many fans' desire to see more of Din Djarin without his helmet, even if he can't confirm whether it will happen. It also gives fans more reasons to be excited, implying that The Mandalorian & Grogu is packed with twists and turns that will make it an unforgettable experience. If the movie's star is this confident about The Mandalorian's transition to cinemas, we must be in for a real treat.

Pedro Pascal Is Definitely Excited About The Mandalorian & Grogu

He's especially excited for fans to be surprised

Pascal emphasizing his excitement for The Mandalorian & Grogu despite already knowing what happens naturally raises more questions about what we can expect. More significantly, Pascal boldly claims the next Star Wars film is "one of the greatest adventure movies that has ever been made," a title already attributed to some of the franchise's previous entries. Star Wars actors are bound to hype their own projects, but there's no denying how much ion Pascal has going in.

Our Take On The Mandalorian & Grogu

Pascal's enthusiasm for the next Star Wars movie inspires confidence

I have to it, just hearing this brief statement from Pedro Pascal has drastically increased my excitement for The Mandalorian & Grogu. I'll always have some excitement for a new Star Wars movie, but with The Mandalorian season 3 wrapping up so many of the show's plotlines, it left me uncertain if there was enough story left to warrant a movie. Now, however, Pascal's faith in the movie and his excitement for fans to see it are highly infectious.

Pascal's hope that Din Djarin will take his helmet off again also makes me excited about the possibilities that entails. It could create more conflict between him and other Mandalorians, allow him to connect more with Grogu, and just let us see more of Pascal's acting in general. After hearing these exclusive comments, I'm looking forward to what The Mandalorian & Grogu has to offer the Star Wars saga.

The Mandalorian & Grogu releases in theaters on May 22, 2026.
