The Mandalorian and Grogu • Trailer Response
The first trailer for The Mandalorian and Grogu has dropped, and we dive into every frame, from Zeb’s live-action bow staff combat to Rotta the Hutt’s surprising return and more.
Alex Kormann was born and raised in New Jersey, where his earliest memories of photography involve playing with his father’s film cameras as a child.
In 2014, photography took on a deeper meaning for him after his father passed away from cancer. It became a personal form of therapy, and through sharing his father’s story, he witnessed firsthand the power of storytelling and its ability to make a meaningful impact on others. That realization solidified his passion for visual storytelling.
Kormann went on to study photojournalism at UNC-Chapel Hill and was hired by the Minneapolis Star Tribune shortly after graduating. After spending two years in Duluth, he now lives and works in Minneapolis.
He has a particular interest in long-form storytelling and enjoys working with medium format film. In addition to his work as a photojournalist, he is also a co-host of the Star Wars Generations podcast on TruStory FM.
