Star Wars finally corrects a major film problem, but is it enough to save the franchise?


Star Wars is one of the largest franchises in the world, but although it is still active, it has not had a film in theaters for more than half a decade. This despite Disney’s attempts to produce such a film, with the cinematographic absence which should finally end in 2026 with a new film. The said film will also be quite economical, which could give him all the help he needs.

The Mandalorian and the Grogu is surprisingly much cheaper than many recent Disney productionsEspecially for a film of this scope. He pointed out the end of the inflated budget era in Hollywood which condemned several films to be box office flops. This is more than necessary to help the new Star Wars The film, however, taking into account the silver screen connotations that the franchise has developed in recent years.

The Mandalorian and the Grogu is ready to finally bring Star Wars Back to the big screen after seven yearsThe film 2026 being the first release of this type for the franchise since 2019 Star Wars: Episode IX – The Rise of Skywalker. Since Disney bought Lucasfilm, studio budgets Star Wars The films were rather exorbitant. The cheapest of them was Rogue One: A Star Wars storywhich was produced with a budget of 200 million USD dollars after having essentially been filmed again.

At the other end of these, the incredibly expensive Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker,, Solo: a story of Star Wars And Star Wars: The Last Jediwhich was $ 275 million USD and $ 317 million to produce. Fortunately, The Mandalorian and the Grogu will not swim on this side of the swimming pool, and fortunately it will have a much more reasonable budget. According to reports,, The Mandalorian and the Grogu will have a production budget of $ 166 million After the tax credits. This makes it the most expensive Disney Star Wars Film, and incredibly conservative in its budget for such a film.

Star Wars actor John Boyega reveals how Tom Cruise helped him make Finn in episode VII: The Force Awakens.

The general rule for films is that they have to make their production budget 2.5 times before starting to achieve real benefit. Thus, as long as the film earns more than $ 415 million at the box office, it is a success. It will probably be very easy to achieve, and criticisms will have to be aggressively disappointing for fans and general moviegoers to jump it in theaters. There is also the fact that Disney + The Mandalorian was easily the most successful Star Wars TV show. Unfortunately, this does not necessarily say much, and it testifies to the difficult amount of battle that the film can have.

Star Wars has been reduced to a forgetful television franchise

The Mandalorian was one of the first successes on the Disney + streaming platformAnd he reported the start of a new era for Disney as a whole. From there, the studio has released several others Star Wars shows, with most of these sets between the two Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of Jedi and Disney’s following trilogy. In the case of the three seasons of The Mandalorian And some other shows, they succeeded. Others, however, have not been welcomed at all and have only poisoned the global well for the brand.

For example, the highly anticipated Kenobi Obi-Wan The mini-series was largely hated and considered to have been fucked up a lot. Ahsoka Had a slightly more positive reception, but it was not exactly a gamechanger. Acolyte was incredibly controversial, and while other programs were positioned as mini-series, this program was not one and was downright canceled after a season due to the weakness of the hearing and high production costs. The recent Star Wars: Crew Skeleton was considered a breath of fresh air and essentially the version of the brand GOONIESBut his hearing assessments were astronomically lower than those Acolyte.

Legally Blonde’s writer writes this new romantic news.

In the very case of fame Andorthat some consider the only big Star Wars Show, he had particularly disappointing notes until his positive criticisms are suitable for viewers to give him a chance. At this point, Star Wars is considered more a television franchise than a film franchise, namely for children who have grown up in recent years. In addition, the overwhelming majority of these emissions is at best mediocre and hated at the worst of distance, completely tanning the image of the brand. The occasional public has no reason to be necessarily excited by a new film because of this, while hardcore fans have every reason to avoid such a project.

In fact, the complete dismissal of Skeletal crew shows that Star Wars Fans have left the building more and more and are no longer ready to check everything with the name of the franchise on it. This is a great reason why even The Mandalorian and the Grogu Could face theatrical challenges, transforming the release of the film into an even more important affair than Disney wants to admit it. He does not need to earn almost as much money to be a success, but it could be far from being enough to erase the task of recent years.

The Mandalorian and the Grogu are done or breaks for Star Wars

The Mandalorian and the Grogu It is not a guaranteed success, even with the popularity of its protagonists. For example, the third season of The Mandalorian was not as well received as what came beforeAnd the media and the popularity of the first season in particular are several distant memories of the past. Likewise, Disney completely dropped the ball as regards Grogu, alias the child or (erroneous) “baby yoda”. For example, there were no similar toys or goods in development in the first season of The Mandalorian abandoned.

Disney missed a major marketing chance just because Christmas was at the corner of the street, and when the official goods were produced, Disney overflowed by saturating the market with growled items. Many of them found themselves in large stores like Ollie’s, Rose’s and Gabe, highlighting the fall of grace for the show itself and Star Wars in general. NOW, It has not yet been seen how the Star Wars The brand remains in its current form. The situation is very different from the gap between Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith And Star Wars: Episode VI – The Force Awakens.

Andor is a brilliant Star Wars show, but fans can overdow his largest winning formula

As the only star wars show for adults, Andor manages to say his themes and his messages more explicitly than before, but it is not the only serious story.

After all, despite the strongly conviction of the prequel trilogy, many estimated that Revenge of the Sith was actually good and a worthy conclusion. Vice versa, Skywalker climb Had a much more lukewarm reception and pointed out how the Trilogy of the Disney suite felt empty and soulless for many fans. Add the increasingly nonchalant attitude towards the new shows and how it has the impression that the brand has argued in the “content” of the treadmill and a new Star Wars The film does not have the same weight of excitement as in the past. Thus, hardcore fans and the consumer public may not be influenced to return to the galaxy far, far.

This makes the new film a particularly essential project for the franchise. The Mandalorian and the Grogu is the only planned Star Wars film in recent years to be successfully developedwith many other potentials Star Wars Projects dying on the vine. This puts many expectations on this subject of fans, especially those who have embittered Star Wars content. At the same time, the fact that it is essentially a suite (and a probable conclusion) to Disney + The Mandalorian means that it might not be as easily accessible as most Star Wars movies.

This is a problem that Marvel Studios encountered films related to television shows, with Captain America: Brave New World being the last example of this riddle. This creates one of the multiple problems that could lead to death due to central-paper to The Mandalorian and the GroguEspecially if the brand’s television content continues to disappoint or slide into non-record. Thus, the new film could either buy the Disney + content of the franchise, or ultimately damn that time being poisoned by previous failures.

The Mandalorian & Rogu should be released in theaters on May 22, 2026.
