Details for Mando and Grogu’s Millenium Falcon Mission Revealed

Mando

A new adventure featuring Mando, the titular Mandalorian from The Mandalorian, is coming to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at both Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort. And yes, Grogu’s coming along for the ride, too. This exciting update to Millennium Falcon: Smuggler’s Run will debut on May 22, 2026.

During The Future of World-Building at Disney panel at SXSW, The Mandalorian creator and Disney Legend Jon Favreau was joined onstage by Imagineers Leslie Evans and Asa Kalama to talk about what’s coming soon to Batuu.

“One of the cool things about Disney is how we can tell our stories in so many different formats,” Favreau told the crowd. “We’re already taking Mando and Grogu from the TV screen to the movie screen, and at the same time, [The Mandalorian executive producer] Dave [Filoni] and I are working with Asa to bring this story to the Disney parks, too.”

LEGO

It’s something that can only be done at Disney, bringing avid Star Wars fans closer to the stories they know and love via the innovative magic at Disney Parks. This update is only a parsec or two away — both the movie and this update to Millennium Falcon: Smuggler’s Run will debut on May 22, 2026.

“Opening an attraction and a such a massive movie on the same day wouldn’t be possible without the relationships we have inside Disney,” Kalama added. “Jon and Dave have shared their story with us, and now we’ve all worked together to come up with a new mission for Smugglers Run that plays into this narrative.”

LEGO

Working alongside The Mandalorian team, the Imagineers captured scenes for the attraction on the movie set, and you might see some familiar (and beloved) locations aboard the Falcon. Care for a trip to Cloud City, anyone?

But that’s not the only thing making the jump from the parks to the movies, and vice versa. You might have seen the playful BDX droids puttering around Disneyland before, and soon they’ll make a trip around the world to visit Disney World, Tokyo Disneyland, and Disneyland Paris. And that’s in addition to the little droids appearing in The Mandalorian, too.

LEGO

Going from Imagineering to the parks, to their feature film debut, is a lot for the droids. With all this work, they’re sure to need a tune-up eventually and don’t worry, Imagineering already has the right creature for the job.

As previously seen in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and the latest season of The Mandalorian, say hello to an Anzellan, who specializes in tuning up droids. Just maybe don’t make him too cranky.

Disney+ Share First Episode of “Win or Lose” on YouTube

Disney

Pixar Animation Studios and Disney+ shared the first episode of the critically acclaimed new series “Win or Lose” on YouTube today (you can watch the full episode below). Pixar’s first-ever original series features the intertwined stories of eight different characters as they each prepare for their big championship softball game—the insecure kids, their helicopter parents, even a lovesick umpire. The first six episodes are now streaming on Disney+, with the final two episodes premiering next Wednesday to conclude the heartfelt series.

In the first episode, “Coach’s Kid,” Laurie (voice of Rosie Foss) may not be the most skilled player on her softball team, but she makes up for it in spirit—most of the time. The 12-year-old struggles with insecurity that manifests into an amorphous, sentient creature called Sweaty (voice of Jo Firestone) that only she can see. Laurie’s anxiety mounts as the championship draws nearer—she literally carries an ever-growing Sweaty on her back, struggling under its weight. All she wants is to score a hit and make her dad aka Coach (voice of Will Forte) proud.

Featuring a voice cast that also includes Josh Thomson, Milan Elizabeth Ray, Rosa Salazar, Dorien Watson, Izaac Wang, Chanel Stewart, Lil Rel Howery, Melissa Villaseñor, Flula Borg, Kyleigh Curran, Jaylin Fletcher, Erin Keif, Tom Law, Beck Nolan, Orion Tran, and Rhea Seehorn, “Win or Lose” delivers Pixar’s signature blend of humor, heart, and groundbreaking animation.

LEGO

Directed and written by Carrie Hobson and Michael Yates, and produced by David Lally, this visually stunning and deeply relatable series is packed with laugh-out-loud moments, emotional depth, and an unforgettable soundtrack featuring music by composer Ramin Djawadi and original songs by CAMPFIRE and Djawadi.

And now through March 30, new and eligible returning customers can subscribe to the Disney+, Hulu Bundle Basic for $2.99/month for four months – a $32 savings compared to the regular monthly price for four months – by visiting www.disneyplus.com.

World’s Largest Lego Festival Coming May 3

Lego

LEGOLAND Resorts have joined forces to launch the LEGO Festival, the first ever celebration of its kind! Designed to be a child’s first festival, it’s where LEGO play comes to life on an epic scale. With dancing, rocking, building and gaming, it’s set to be the most epic reminder to keep playtime a priority. LEGO Festival kicks off May 3 and runs for six weekends at seven LEGOLAND Resorts globally until World Play Day on June 11th.

“LEGOLAND Resorts have always been a ‘child’s first’ experience of a theme park – who better to deliver their first festival experience? Together with the LEGO Group, we’ve created the ultimate way to discover and experience the power of creative play with the hopes of sparking imaginations, social connection, self-expression and learning. As a first festival for Merlin Entertainments, we wanted to be sure LEGO Festival is a place for fun and memorable experiences for the entire family, where imaginations can run wild and creativity knows no limits. LEGO Festival will embody what LEGOLAND is all about – play as a way of life.” commented Fiona Eastwood, CEO of Merlin Entertainments.

LEGO Festival offers five different areas to encourage guests to play in different ways, with the following zones: music, creativity, dance, gaming and chill out.

The guest journey begins with a memorable welcome and a unique photo opportunity at each LEGOLAND Park, featuring an iconic and personalized (to the city) ‘I heart Play” LEGO model. At this incredible model, each child is given a Festival lanyard before embarking on their journey to experience all five zones and ultimately making their “Play Pact” at the end of the day.

For every “Pact” made, Merlin Entertainments and the LEGO Group promises to arrange for underserved children and their families to enjoy play time at a LEGOLAND Resort. The Play Pact, requires children to promise to build more, laugh louder, explore endlessly and always keep playing!

With five engaging and interactive zones, and 49 new big build LEGO models being introduced across the globe, the LEGO Festival is bound to be a family tradition for years to come!

World Play Day is the LEGO Group and LEGOLAND Resorts’ celebration of the UN-recognized International Day of Play, which was adopted in March 2024. It is a day dedicated to celebrating the benefits and joy that play brings and encouraging families around the world to take a moment to play.

Seven Resorts. Six weekends. Five countries. One huge rallying cry to the power of play.

For more information and to sign up to be the first to hear festival buzz, visit legoland.com/legofestival/, and visit the page for the relevant Resort. LEGO Festival is included with regular admission.

Disney shares Special Look for “Andor” Season 2

Disney

Disney has released an exciting special look and unveiled a brand-new poster and images for the highly anticipated second season of Lucasfilm’s Emmy®-nominated thriller “Andor,” which returns for its long-awaited conclusion on April 22. The special look, available now on Disney+ and YouTube, offers a glimpse at the making of Season 2 of the compelling series, in which the characters and their relationships will intensify as the horizon of war draws near and Cassian becomes a key player in the Rebel Alliance. Everyone will be tested and, as the stakes rise, the betrayals, sacrifices and conflicting agendas will become profound.

Rife with political intrigue, danger, tension, and high stakes, the series is a prequel to “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, which portrayed a heroic band of rebels who steal the plans to the Empire’s weapon of mass destruction: The Death Star, setting the stage for the events of the original 1977 film. “Andor” sets the clock back five years from the events of “Rogue One” to tell the story of the film’s hero, Cassian Andor, and his transformation from disinterested, cynical nobody into a rebel hero on his way to an epic destiny.

The final season will unfold over 12 episodes broken down into four chapters of three episodes each. The first chapter will premiere April 22, with subsequent chapters debuting each week.

“Andor” Season 2 stars Diego Luna, Stellan Skarsgård, Genevieve O’Reilly, Denise Gough, Kyle Soller, Adria Arjona, Faye Marsay, Varada Sethu, Elizabeth Dulau, Alan Tudyk, with Ben Mendelsohn and Forest Whitaker. The series was created by Tony Gilroy, who also serves as an executive producer along with Kathleen Kennedy, Sanne Wohlenberg, Diego Luna, Luke Hull and John Gilroy. Tony Gilroy wrote the first three episodes, with Beau Willimon writing episodes 4-6, Dan Gilroy penning episodes 7-9 and Tom Bissell putting pen to paper for episodes 10-12. The directors for the series are Ariel Kleiman (Eps. 1-6), Janus Metz (Eps. 7-9) and Alonso Ruizpalacios (Eps. 10-12).

Marvel’s “Daredevil: Born Again” Ignites a New Spark

Daredevil

A wave of relief and a resounding cheer are more than justified for “Daredevil” enthusiasts. “Daredevil: Born Again” emerges as a triumphant revival, not merely resurrecting Matt Murdock’s narrative, but injecting it with a vibrant, renewed energy that honors its hard-earned legacy. This meticulously crafted, character-centric drama expertly navigates the delicate balance between forging new paths and acknowledging the weight of past conflicts, ensuring that both long-standing devotees and fresh-faced viewers find a welcoming and compelling experience.

Charlie Cox, with an undeniable mastery, once again dons the crimson mask, solidifying his status as the definitive Daredevil. His portrayal is a testament to nuanced growth and unwavering confidence, rendering the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen even more captivating than before. However, a hero’s journey is defined by their adversary, and Vincent D’Onofrio’s return as Wilson Fisk, the Kingpin, is nothing short of a tour de force. His performance cements Fisk as one of Marvel’s most formidable and complex villains, his iron grip on the city serving as a chilling counterpoint to Murdock’s relentless pursuit of justice, their confrontations crackling with raw, visceral intensity.

LEGO

While “Born Again” confidently stands as its own narrative, it skillfully rewards those familiar with the original Netflix series. Subtle references and callbacks are woven throughout, enriching the experience for seasoned viewers without alienating newcomers. For those seeking a refresher, the entirety of “Daredevil” and “The Defenders” are readily available for streaming on Disney+, providing a seamless bridge to this new chapter.

 

With nine episodes, each thoughtfully paced at about 45-50 minutes, “Born Again” strikes an ideal equilibrium between narrative depth and engaging pacing. The series adeptly avoids the pitfalls of bloated storytelling, opting for a tightly structured narrative that faithfully retains the signature grit and profound emotional resonance that distinguished its predecessor. This commitment to strong storytelling is evident in every scene.

LEGO

Though designed as a standalone tale, “Born Again” subtly acknowledges its place within the vast tapestry of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Skillfully integrated cameos enhance the viewing experience, providing delightful surprises for MCU aficionados without overshadowing the core narrative or diluting the street-level focus on Hell’s Kitchen’s struggles.

In an era marked by the fluctuating quality of Marvel’s television endeavors, “Daredevil: Born Again” stands as a testament to ambition and success. It remains steadfastly grounded, mature, and unflinchingly embraces the darkness that defines Daredevil’s enduring appeal. Disney and Marvel have demonstrably learned a valuable lesson: the power of extended runtimes and meticulously crafted character development, proving that investing in depth yields remarkable results.

Lego Showcases It’s Largest Portfolio at Toy Fair 2025

Lego

The LEGO Group has unveiled its largest product portfolio at Toy Fair 2025, highlighted by the first sets from the newly revealed LEGO® Bluey™ theme in partnership with BBC Studios. The 2025 LEGO product assortment includes more than 340 sets across 30 themes, further affirming the company’s promise to provide building experiences for fans of all ages to explore the limitless possibilities of hands-on play.

“Championing the power of play is core to the LEGO brand,” said Jared Carr, Senior Vice President, Americas Market Group, the LEGO Group. “Designed for builders of all age groups, our newest portfolio appeals to a wide range of interests and passion points, enabling children and adults to imagine and create through LEGO play.”

One highlight from the portfolio unveiled at Toy Fair 2025 includes the first five sets from the LEGO Bluey collection, including two LEGO DUPLO® sets and three LEGO 4+ sets, bringing the animated television series to life in LEGO brick form for the first time. The eagerly awaited product line will be available via LEGO stores, LEGO.com and Amazon starting June 1. Featured in the new theme are:

LEGO

  • LEGO DUPLO Bluey Ice Cream Trip with Bluey, 10458 (2+): Jump in the Heeler family car and join Bluey and Dad on a trip for ice cream. Preschoolers develop color-sorting skills and learn to recognize numbers as they match scoop colors with the flavors.
    LEGO DUPLO Bluey’s Family House with Memory Game, 10459 (3+): First toddlers build the house and act out Heeler family life, and then the memory games begin. Parents hide items and figures behind the windows of the house. Toddlers twist the spinner to see which paired items they need to find. To make the match, they open the windows and use memory skills to remember where their pair is hiding.

LEGO

 

  • LEGO Bluey Playground Fun with Bluey and Chloe, 11201 (4+): This versatile preschool playground toy features minifigures of TV dogs Bluey and Chloe in a vibrantly colored playground, complete with seesaw, slide, jungle gym and rotating pelican ride.

LEGO

 

  • LEGO Bluey: Bluey’s Beach & Family Car Trip, 11202 (4+): Pack the car for a fun day at the beach with Bluey, Bingo and Mum. Choose a nice spot under the palm tree, splash on the sunscreen, then it’s time to play. Bluey buries her legs in sand to make a mermaid tail and Bingo builds a sandcastle (it’s so good, a crab makes it its home!) while Chilli, Bluey’s mum, relaxes under the parasol. Grab an ice cream from the cooler, then… who’s ready for surfing?

LEGO

  • LEGO Bluey: Bluey’s Family House, 11203 (4+): Step inside Bluey’s iconic home! Start in the playroom with the cool kiwi rug and role-play food stall. At the top of the house is Bluey and Bingo’s bedroom, where Chattermax sits waiting. Can you spot the Queen’s throne? There are many rooms to explore, including Mum and Dad’s bedroom and the kitchen. In the backyard, under the tree are snacks, a barbecue and a balloon to play ‘keepy uppy’ with.

“We are over the moon to bring the fun of Bluey to life with our new LEGO 4+ and LEGO DUPLO sets. Just like Bluey and her family, these sets are all about having ‘Heaps of Fun’ and encouraging children and families to explore their creativity and imagination, all while learning through play” said Roberta Cardazzo, Design Manager on new LEGO DUPLO Bluey sets. “We hope families everywhere will enjoy building and playing together, creating their own memorable adventures!”
