A galaxy far, far away is about to get closer than ever. “The Mandalorian and Grogu” will be available to stream on Disney+ starting Sept. 2 after grossing $345 million worldwide in theaters this summer. That total made it the lowest grossing live-action “Star Wars” movie (below the $393 million haul of “Solo”).

Directed by Jon Favreau, the film premiered in theaters May 22 and follows bounty hunter Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) and his apprentice, Grogu, as they’re recruited by officer Colonel Ward (Sigourney Weaver) to aid the New Republic. The unlikely duo must rescue the heir to Jabba the Hutt, Rotta the Hutt (voiced by “The Bear’s” Jeremy Allen White), in order to track down an Imperial leader.
