'The Mandalorian and Grogu' Is Making a Huge Mistake With One of Star Wars' Most Beloved Characters

Editor's Note: The following contains specific descriptions of The Mandalorian and Grogu footage shown at CinemaCon 2026.Jon Favreau delivered tons of new footage for The Mandalorian and Grogu at the 2026 CinemaCon, including shocking reveals of the full opening action sequence, the opening titles and credits sequence, and the first act setup, which discloses the new status quo of one of the most iconic characters of the Disney Star Wars era. The Lasat warrior Garazeb "Zeb" Orrelios (Steven Blum) takes the spotlight, and we already knew from previous trailers that this Rebel would appear in the first theatrical Star Wars movie in seven years. His presence in the movie is incredibly problematic, however, causing issues in other parts of the Star Wars franchise, specifically the television spin-off, Ahsoka.
