Fast-food Star Wars promotions are usually a little chaotic by design, but Burger King’s new The Mandalorian & Grogu tie-in actually sounds like it knows exactly what kind of chaos it wants. Burger King has officially announced a limited-time menu launching May 4 at participating U.S. locations to celebrate the upcoming movie, which hits theaters on May 22, 2026. And yes, the menu names are doing a lot. According to Burger King’s official announcement, the lineup includes the BBQ Bounty Whopper, Grogu’s Blue Cookie Shake, Grogu’s Garlic Chicken Fries, and Imperial Cheddar Ranch Tots.

SWTOR Executive Producer Letter header image featuring Star Wars The Old Republic key art and text about Update 7.9, 8.0, and spring rewards

It looks back at what has already landed in 2026, confirms that Game Update 7.9 “Legacy Reborn” is still coming later this spring, and makes it clear that the first real 8.0 feature details are being saved for the upcoming 7.9 livestream.

Disney+ Announces Tales of the Moisture Farmer for May 4 Release

Cinematic Star Wars-inspired poster image for Tales of the Moisture Farmer showing a desert farmer, vaporators, and twin suns in a Disney+ style layout

Lucasfilm has apparently found its next great Star Wars story, and this time it is not about Jedi, Sith, bounty hunters, clones, or criminal syndicates. It is about something far more dangerous: trying to keep a moisture farm alive on Tatooine. According to a teaser image now circulating online, Tales of the Moisture Farmer is set to arrive on May 4 as a four-episode Disney+ event series, promising what may be the most aggressively grounded Star Wars project ever pitched. If the title is real, the series looks aimed squarely at the most underserved corner of the galaxy: overworked Outer Rim labor, broken vaporators, and the kind of dry agricultural despair only twin suns can provide.

Lucasfilm has spent the last few years exploring more specific corners of the Star…

May the 4th used to be mostly about memes, marathons, and people posting the same Vader GIF like it was brand-new information. Now? It’s basically a release date. Because 2026 marks the 6th year in a row where Disney+ debuts a new Star Wars project on May the 4th — and at this point, it’s clearly not an accident. 6 Years of Star Wars Releases on May the 4th (Disney+) Here’s the streak: That’s six straight years where May 4th wasn’t just “Star Wars Day.” It was also content drop day. Why This Matters (Even If It Sounds Like a Fun Little Trivia Fact) This isn’t just a cute calendar coincidence. It says something pretty obvious about Disney’s current Star Wars strategy: May the 4th is now a marketing anchor Disney+ doesn’t need to explain May 4th releases anymore. The date sells itself. Animation is carrying the tradition Notice the…
