'The Mandalorian and Grogu' Super Bowl Teaser Fails to Please 'Star Wars' Fans

Disney's 30-second Super Bowl spot for The Mandalorian and Grogu shows Pedro Pascal's Din Djarin and Grogu on a snowy landscape assumed to be Hoth, riding a carriage pulled by Tauntauns in the style of an old Clydesdale Budweiser commercial, complete with Sam Elliott providing a voiceover.

The brief teaser reportedly cost Disney $10 million to air. Many viewers expressed disappointment, saying the spot felt like a commercial rather than new story footage and that its practical effects looked "TV quality." On Reddit, one user wrote, "Well the marketing for this movie continues to be terrible," while another added, "Movie comes out in 3 months and this is the best we get?" Other reactions were mixed: "I thought it was funny and was gonna be the Budweiser commercial with the horses" and "I'm kinda here for the audacity of this ad." The Super Bowl has become a moment for big movie reveals, and some expected a fuller trailer offering more details.
