You talkin' to me? Or you talkin' to Grogu?

*The Mandalorian and Grogu*'s trailer revealed*Taxi Driver*, *Goodfellas*, and *Killers of the Flower Moon *auteur Martin Scorsese as a part of the upcoming *Star Wars *universe film's ensemble cast on Tuesday.

A new trailer contains the first glimpse of Scorsese's character, a four-armed Ardennian shop owner who interacts with Pedro Pascal's bounty hunter Din Djarin, the titular Mandalorian, in a crowded market.

"I'm looking for some information," Din says in a low and menacing tone, before placing a glinting coin on the shop owner's counter. Scorsese's New York drawl fills the scene when his character retorts, "Whoa! For this price, I'll tell you whatever you want."

"I'm looking for a Hutt," Din explains, which turns Scorsese's shopkeeper on a dime. "Closed for the night, thank you!" he announces, slamming a protective screen in the Mandalorian's face.

While Scorsese is primarily known for directing over 50 features, documentaries, short films, and television episodes, he also has numerous acting credits to his name. He last appeared in the Julian Schnabel drama *In the Hand of Dante*, which premiered at the 2025 Venice International Film Festival.

But he's also given himself several voice roles in his own films, including *The Wolf of Wall Street*, in which he speaks over the phone to Leonardo DiCaprio's wicked Jordan Belfort, and *The Irishman*, in which he provided a critical command during a courtroom scene. His last memorable voice role outside his own filmography came in 2004, when he played the pufferfish Sykes in *Shark Tale*.********

The rest of the *Mandalorian and Grogu *trailer* *sees Pascal's bounty hunter promise the 50-year-old alien infant Grogu, colloquially known as Baby Yoda, to burn through "gangsters" and "war criminals" en route to eliminating "every bad guy in your deck of cards."

Elsewhere, Sigourney Weaver's fighter pilot notes that the titular team's mission "isn't about revenge," but "preventing another war." There's also a glimpse of Din duking it out with Rotta (voiced by Jeremy Allen White), the son of iconic *Star Wars *villain Jabba the Hutt.****

The film, directed by Jon Favreau, who co-wrote the screenplay with new Lucasfilm CEO Dave Filoni, continues the Disney+ series *The Mandalorian*, which aired its final episode in 2023.

"The evil Empire has fallen, and Imperial warlords remain scattered throughout the galaxy," reads a previously released description of the film. "As the fledgling New Republic works to protect everything the Rebellion fought for, they have enlisted the help of legendary Mandalorian bounty hunter Din Djarin and his young apprentice Grogu."

*Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu *premieres in theaters on May 22.**
