THE MANDALORIAN: Temuera Morrison Plays Coy About His Boba Fett Future; New Stills From "The Tragedy" Released

Following that big return as Boba Fett in last week's episode of The Mandlaorian, Temuera Morrison has addressed his possible future as the bounty hunter, and whether he'll share the screen with Grogu.

Directed by Robert Rodriguez, "The Tragedy" was one of the biggest episodes of The Mandalorian to date. Bringing Boba Fett back to live-action (after a couple of brief cameos) for the first time since Return of the Jedi, the bounty hunter remains as badass as ever thanks to Temuera Morrison.

Yesterday, the actor admitted that no one has told him how Fett managed to survive the Sarlacc Pit, and has now commented on whether the character has a future beyond The Mandalorian

"I’m just going to have to wait and see," he teased. "I think a lot of it depends on how things go with this season, but I don’t really know. I wanted to bring everything I had to that [episode] and give them a glimmer of what I can offer. There’s room for this to go someplace. I hope I’m going to be included." 

Rumours of a spinoff series persist, so here's hoping Morrison is indeed set to return.

For now, it looks like Boba will have a role to play in the next two episodes of The Mandalorian, and asked whether he hopes to share the screen with Grogu, the actor added: "Baby Yoda’s probably the biggest actor in Hollywood at the moment, but I never got to work with him very closely or with the people who move him around. I was using him in a not-so-good way, as bait. But hopefully I’ll get to meet him and we can have a little bonding session."

We shared some officially released stills with you yesterday, but more can be found below:

Tython is a planet with a lot of history in the Star Wars Universe, and a location which is powerful in the Force. Who Grogu connected with remains to be seen, but we're betting on Ezra Bridger.

Seeing Slave I circle Tython was undeniably incredible, while the arrival of the Stormtroopers also made it clear that the stakes were going to be high in Robert Rodriguez's episode of The Mandalorian.

"The Tragedy" confirmed that the Dark Troopers are fully robotic, so there go those compelling theories about Moff Gideon creating Force sensitive human/cyborg hybrids to take over the Galaxy.

We're still not over the destruction of the Razor Crest, but Slave I is a pretty cool ship to hitch a ride on, eh? Here, we get a proper look at the interior, and there will be plenty of room for Din Djarin's crew.

Grogu appears to be more powerful after visiting Tython, but using the Force exhausts him, and that made him easy prey for Moff Gideon. The question is, who is the "donor" the villain mentioned here?

@RokoVII - I never understood the fascination with Boba Fett but this was an awesome portrayal and Morrison was absolutely dope.

It would be great if Quentin Tarantino wrote and directed an episode starring Boba Fett. Fett may be one of those "tough guys" that Tarantino likes.

I've got a sneaking suspicion he's gonna get killed off in the season finale and Mando may end up inheriting Slave-I to replace the Razor Crest. If it suits the story I'd be cool with that, although I'd equally be happy to see Boba survive and pop up in the future or get a spin-off or something. Whatever makes for the best story really.

I doubt that if they're gonna make a Boba Fett show, Morrison will in it. Or otherwise only be barely (with most of the show being flashback to the Empire era)

Out of all the guest-appearances, Morrison seems like the least charismatic actor to lead a spin-off.

2. Rosario Dawson
3. Katee Sackhoff
4. Temuera Morrison
