On March 22, 2026, actor John Boyega confirmed discussions with Lucasfilm's new co-CEO Dave Filoni regarding the potential return of his character Finn to the Star Wars universe. This development surfaced as reports indicated Lucasfilm's film "The Mandalorian and Grogu," previously anticipated for a May 22, 2026 theatrical release marking the franchise’s return to cinemas, might not proceed as expected. The future of the "Mandoverse"—the interconnected Disney+ series and films stemming from "The Mandalorian" that began in 2019—had reportedly grown more uncertain on March 21. Earlier, on March 20, Lucasfilm co-CEO Dave Filoni had expressed surprise about the live-action return of Rotta the Hutt, a character from "Star Wars: The Clone Wars," within "The Mandalorian and Grogu."
