The Things You Missed

Does The Mandalorian and Grogu have a post-credit scene?

2026 · Jon Favreau · 132 min

The answer

No post-credit scene

No mid- or post-credits scenes of any kind — the story wraps before the credits roll. The only reason to stay in your seat is Ludwig Göransson's score, which plays the credits out.

What plays over the credits instead

None — no mid-credits scene, no post-credits scene, nothing tucked behind the studio logos. SlashFilm's spoiler-free guide is blunt about it: the film "doesn't feature any credits scenes of any kind, be it a mid-credits stinger or a post-credits scene," and Nerdist agrees. Star Wars has never played that game theatrically, and Jon Favreau's first cinema outing with these characters keeps the tradition intact. The story finishes, the frame goes black, the crawl begins.

The one argument for staying is musical. Nerdist's advice is that you "can sit through the credits to enjoy Ludwig Göransson's incredible score" — the composer who wrote the bass-recorder motif that opened a streaming series in 2019, here with a room full of cinema speakers behind him. SlashFilm's take is less romantic: everything the movie has to say is said before the credits roll, so head for the lobby if you like. Both agree on the only fact that matters, which is that nothing is waiting for you at the end.

There is no sequel hook because the film was never built to need one. It was designed as an entry point, a self-contained adventure you can hand to someone who has never opened Disney+, and Lucasfilm's next theatrical release is an unrelated story: Shawn Levy's Star Wars: Starfighter, set roughly five years after The Rise of Skywalker and dated May 28, 2027. Wherever Din Djarin and Grogu go next, nothing here tells you about it.
