Pedro Pascal Teases Grogu During Star Wars: The Mandalorian And Grogu Promotions: 'He's Had A Manicure...

The cast and filmmakers from Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu continued their global tour this week with stops in Paris and London. Pedro Pascal, Sigourney Weaver, and director/co-writer/producer Jon Favreau were in the City of Light for a special screening of film footage for more than 2,000 fans at Le Grand Rex in Paris, before travelling to London for the U.K. fan event at Cineworld IMAX Leicester Square, where they were joined by producer Kathleen Kennedy.

But someone who is stealing the show through the tour is Grogu, who makes his big screen debut with Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu. Belonging to the same mysterious species as Yoda, Grogu has already taken over the internet through memes, merchandise and a fanbase that just keeps growing. During an interview, Sigourney Weaver and Pedro Pascal were asked about their cool co-star and they didn't stop from gushing about Grogu.

Weaver, who makes her debut in the Star Wars universe, said, "I love the little hairs on his head, his ears, how expressive he is, and his nails." Pascal also joked, "He's even had a manicure for the event, so we know who the real star is." He also shared that the bond between Din Djarin and Grogu has deeply resonated with audiences, and he believes that several moments in the film will stay with people long after they leave the cinema.

The evil Empire has fallen, and Imperial warlords remain scattered throughout the galaxy. 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 (Pedro Pascal) and his young apprentice Grogu.
