Disney Parks has shared a first look at the Razor Crest mission briefing for the new Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run adventure debuting May 22, 2026 at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.
The official Disney Parks post was published May 4, 2026 as part of the company’s Star Wars Day rollout. The preview is framed as a transmission from the Razor Crest, setting up the new Smugglers Run mission connected to Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu.
What Disney confirmed
Disney confirmed that the new adventure is coming to Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run on May 22, 2026. The post also identifies the location as Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, which means the update applies to the attraction at Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort.
The preview does not include a full ride-through or a detailed breakdown of the mission. Instead, Disney is showing the mission briefing that guests will see as part of the setup for the updated experience. That makes this a first-look content drop, not a new operational announcement.
Why it matters for Galaxy’s Edge
Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run has been one of the anchor attractions in Galaxy’s Edge since the land opened. The May 22 update gives the ride a new story hook tied to Din Djarin, Grogu, and the Razor Crest era of Star Wars storytelling.
Disney has already been building toward that date with related previews, including poster art and a new Galaxy’s Edge soundscape featuring music from the upcoming mission. Together, the posts make clear that Disney is treating the Smugglers Run update as one of its main park-connected Star Wars beats for May 2026.
What guests should know
Disney did not announce a separate preview period, virtual queue, Lightning Lane change, or opening-day procedure in this mission-briefing post. Guests planning trips around May 22 should treat the date as the confirmed debut target, then watch Disney’s official app and park updates for day-of operating details.
The post also does not say whether the new mission will permanently replace the existing Smugglers Run setup or rotate with previous versions. That detail still needs a separate official confirmation.
Until Disney publishes those operating details, the safest planning move is to treat this as a confirmed content preview and not as a boarding-process update. The date is useful, but the exact guest experience on opening day still depends on Disney’s later attraction guidance.
