Disney4me Posted April 20 Report Share Posted April 20 In case you missed it, Star Wars Celebration Japan was held this weekend, and Disney dropped a TON of Star Wars news bombs. Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run We learned that yes, Ryan Gosling is going to star in a Star Wars movie, Andor season two is going to be OFF the hook, Ahsoka season two is bringing back Hayden Christensen as Anakin Skywalker, and SO much more. However, we also got some details on a ride in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disney World and Disneyland. Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run is changing — and we just got even MORE details on those changes. Disney revealed some of the changes for the ride at last year’s SXSW conference. In honor of the release of The Mandalorian and Grogu movie on May 22nd, 2026, Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run will offer NEW experiences for those who ride it, beginning on that same date. ©Disney The ride will get a new storyline featuring both the Mandalorian and Grogu. The story goes like this: Hondo Ohnaka just found out about a deal on Tatooine between ex-Imperial officers and some pirates. There’s a bounty for their capture, so you’re going to “borrow” the Millennium Falcon and team up with Din Djarin and Grogu to track them down. But there’s more — you’ll also get to visit some NEW destinations on the ride, including Bespin… ©Disney …Tatooine… Tatooine on the new version of Smuggler’s Run ©Disney …and the ruins of the Death Star…WHOA. Death Star ruins on the new version of Smuggler’s Run ©Disney Here’s another scene from Tatooine. ©Disney Well, we’ve got NEW concept art with MORE destinations, including Coruscant. CORUSCANT, y’all. ©Disney You’ll even have a chance to fly through Beggar’s Canyon… ©Disney …and through the remains of a Krayt Dragon. ©Disney You’ll even be visiting a loading dock on Cloud City, where you might spot a VERY familiar ship from Star Tours also visiting. ©Disney There’s also a scene inside a Death Star launch bay near Endor. ©Disney But you’re probably wondering how you’re supposed to visit ALL those destinations in such a short time? Well, you won’t. BUT for the first time ever, you and your crew get to be in control of the destination. SAY WHAT? Yep! And forget the pilot position…folks are going to be SCRAMBLING to be an engineer on the new version of the ride because the engineer gets to communicate with Grogu through the new mission. Pilot shmilot! ©Disney So Millennium Falcon: Smuggler’s Run is about to get a lot more exciting on May 22nd, 2026. AND WE ARE HERE FOR IT. Stay tuned to DFB for more.
