Jeremy Allen White to Voice Rotta the Hutt in The Mandalorian & Grogu Movie

Date:

Jeremy Allen White, the breakout star of The Bear, is officially stepping into the Star Wars universe. White has been cast as the voice of Rotta the Hutt, Jabba the Hutt’s slug-like son, in the upcoming film The Mandalorian & Grogu.

Set in the aftermath of Return of the Jedi, the film picks up where Jabba’s reign of terror ended—with Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher) famously strangling the crime lord to death. Following Jabba’s demise, his cousins unsuccessfully attempted to seize control of his territory, as revealed in The Book of Boba Fett. Now, Rotta’s arrival in the storyline hints at another potential power struggle, possibly bringing Boba Fett (Temuera Morrison) and Fennec Shand (Ming-Na Wen) back into the fray to protect their hard-won dominance on Tatooine.

The movie will be directed by The Mandalorian series creator Jon Favreau, who is co-writing the screenplay with Dave Filoni, known for his work on Ahsoka. Pedro Pascal is confirmed to return as Din Djarin, the titular Mandalorian, alongside Grogu—affectionately known as Baby Yoda—who will also be featured prominently in the film. Adding to the excitement, Sigourney Weaver has joined the cast in a currently undisclosed role.

This highly anticipated project continues the Star Wars franchise’s expansion, blending beloved characters with new narratives that promise to thrill fans. The Mandalorian & Grogu is set to premiere on May 22, 2026.

Star Wars enthusiasts and newcomers alike can look forward to witnessing Jeremy Allen White’s unique take on Rotta, a character poised to play a pivotal role in this evolving galaxy far, far away.
