After Baby Yoda's success on the small screen, "The Mandalorian and Grogu" marks the return of the Star Wars franchise, eight years after the multiplanetary saga last graced our movie theatres. We take a look at this latest instalment starring Pedro Pascal and Sigourney Weaver. Meanwhile, in Cannes, local talent is in the spotlight with more than 60 French productions and co-productions screening at the festival.
