Rotten Tomatoes revealed its Top 5 most anticipated movies of May, and The Mandalorian and Grogu tops the list. The next Star Wars movie won a poll that includes The Devil Wears Prada 2, Mortal Kombat II, Backrooms, and Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan: Ghost War. The Din Djarin and Grogu adventure was far and away the most anticipated film on the list, with Rotten Tomatoes confirming “It’s safe to say that fans are over the moon for the release of Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu, as it was voted the No. 1 most anticipated movie of May.” For all the talk about the Disney+ series’ big screen debut lacking hype, these are positive results from the famously opinionated Rotten Tomatoes voters.
On the box office side of things, the film is expected to open somewhere between $80-100 million on Memorial Day weekend; however, that could change depending on how many families show up. The film’s marketing is clearly targeting kids, but Disney hasn’t forgotten any demographic, with the film’s merchandise being sold in even the unlikeliest of places, such as Bath and Body Works. Fans have reported that The Mandalorian and Grogu Burger King meals are sold out at nearly every location. Currently, there are no estimates on how it will perform internationally, but there’s no shortage of Star Wars fans around the world. Grogu is extremely popular in Asian countries like Japan and China, which are hubs for Mando merchandise. Star Wars Celebration 2025 took place in Japan, which was attended by the film’s main cast, including Pedro Pascal and Sigourney Weaver. Currently, The Mandalorian and Grogu- A Special Look on Disney+, which features 4 episodes that take fans behind the scenes for a look at the making of the film, is trending #1 on the app in several countries. The social media embargo for the film will be lifted on May 14, and the review embargo will be lifted on May 19. The Mandalorian and Grogu will release on May 22.
