What's Happening:

• After its initial run, the film arrived on digital platforms on July 21.
• Physical 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray releases are slated for August 25.

• For more on the movie, you can also check out Mike's recap of director Jon Favreau's audio commentary.
• And speaking of Mike, you can check out his review of the film, in which he called it "a pleasantly low-stakes escapade that zooms in on the working and father/adopted-son relationship between Din Djarin and Grogu."

• But that's not the only Mando fun coming to Disney+ next month.
• On that same day, the Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu Official Podcast will debut, offering a behind-the-scenes look at the film.
