Major spoilers for the penultimate episode of The Book of Boba Fett follow.
The Book of Boba Fett Chapter 6 was notable for its various surprise appearances, but "From The Desert Comes a Strange" also appeared featured a couple of significant character deaths. Cobb Vanth (Timothy Olyphant) was gunned down by Cade Bane, and while there is a decent chance he survived (it looked like he was hit in the shoulder), things seemed a little bleaker for Garsa Fwip (Jennifer Beals).
The Twi'lek owner of the Sanctuary cantina was caught in the blast when a bomb set by the Pyke Syndicate exploded, likely killing of seriously injuring everyone in the establishment. Though it's possible Fwip did make it out in one piece, Beals has revealed that she always knew her time on the show would be limited.
"They gave me all of my episodes at the same time," she tells THR. "So I could read where I started and where I ended." When asked if there was a chance her character escaped her fiery fate, all Beals would say was: "You’d have to talk to Dave [Filoni] and Jon [Favreau] about that. We know she’s a survivor, so who knows."
"Of course, I would have loved to go on and on," she continued, "but there is the moment of acceptance in that this is the story. I feel very fortunate to have stepped, for even a brief amount of time, into the Star Wars universe."
Do you think we'll be seeing Fwip in the season finale of TBOBF? Drop us a comment down below.
