Is there a post-credits scene featuring The Mandalorian and Grogu?

In a time when Marvel movies reign supreme with their thrilling post-credit scenes teasing future adventures, it’s natural to wonder if the latest Star Wars film, the first in seven years, might follow suit. The Mandalorian and Grogu serves as an exciting entry point into the “Mandoverse,” a new timeline nestled between the original and sequel trilogies. As the film that officially brings this universe to the big screen, it seems like a prime candidate for a post-credit scene that could hint at what’s next, whether in theaters or on Disney Plus with Ahsoka season 2.

So, does The Mandalorian and Grogu feature a post-credit scene? Here’s the scoop.

Don’t get your hopes too high, and don’t linger through the credits. The Mandalorian and Grogu does not include any post-credit scenes, which is pretty standard for dedicated Star Wars fans. Most of the main episodic films skip the after-credit sequences, including Solo and Rogue One.

The closest thing to a post-credit moment in Star Wars history occurred with the 1999 release of The Phantom Menace, which ended with a black screen and the iconic wheezing of Darth Vader. Another notable after-credits moment was the heartfelt tribute to Carrie Fisher at the end of The Last Jedi. Beyond that, no other Star Wars film has ventured into post-credit territory, largely because both George Lucas and J.J. Abrams were not fans of the concept.

While the films may not have embraced post-credit scenes, some Disney Plus Star Wars spin-off series have included them, like The Book of Boba Fett and Andor. Generally, though, the franchise isn’t known for these sequences, and expectations for The Mandalorian and Grogu to break that mold were low, especially considering the current state of the franchise and its future projects. Reports indicate that Dave Filoni’s Mandoverse crossover film and the fourth season of The Mandalorian are still in development, while Ahsoka season 2 has been pushed to 2027.

Shawn Levy’s upcoming Star Wars: Starfighter, set five years after The Rise of Skywalker, doesn’t lend itself to a direct post-credit tie-in with a New Republic era film. This new installment will follow an ace pilot mentoring a young Force-sensitive character as they evade a new Dark-side adversary. With a stellar cast that includes Ryan Gosling, Amy Adams, and Matt Smith, it’s slated for release in May 2027.
