Disney's 'The Mandalorian & Grogu' Moves to Streaming After Weak Box Office

The Mandalorian Grogu Disney streaming box office Star Wars film

Disney released the Star Wars spinoff "The Mandalorian & Grogu" on May 21, 2026. Directed by series creator Jon Favreau and starring Pedro Pascal, Sigourney Weaver and Jeremy Allen White, the film follows the titular bounty‑hunter and his apprentice as they aid the New Republic against an Imperial warlord.

The movie earned a low opening of $98 million domestically and a total of $342 million worldwide, trailing its $165‑$180 million production budget and marking the weakest debut for a Disney‑owned Star Wars film. After a 70 % drop in its second weekend, the picture will become available via premium‑video‑on‑demand on July 21 for $29.99 on platforms such as Apple TV, Prime Video and YouTube.

The release highlights challenges for the franchise’s theatrical strategy and Disney’s shift toward quickly monetising underperforming titles through streaming.
