Boba Fett made his long-awaited return to the galaxy far, far away during the second season of The Mandalorian, and the legendary Star Wars villain-turned antihero will soon put Tatooine's criminal underworld on notice when he claims the spotlight for his own Disney+ spinoff show.
The Book of Boba Fett is set to premiere on the streaming service on December 29, and Total Film has debuted a brand new still featuring the iconic bounty hunter taking aim.
Fett will team-up with fellow bounty hunter Fennec Shand (Ming-Na Wen) on the show, but what about a certain other masked mercenary they're both very familiar with? Morrison was asked about the possibility of an appearance from Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal), but wasn't giving anything away.
"I can't say anything," he grinned, "but we have some wonderful, colourful things to look forward to. I don't want to say too much about it because we're all going to go on this journey together. And every little bit of information is pretty precious now."
The trailer did shed a little more light on what fans can expect, but we still don't know a whole lot about The Book of Boba Fett. The Mandalorian season 2 finale post-credits scene saw the infamous bounty hunter arrive to Jabba the Hutt's palace on Tatooine along with Shand. After dispatching Bib Fortuna, Fett seemingly claimed Jabba's throne for himself, hinting that he also plans to take over the notorious gangster's crime syndicate.
Jon Favreau will produce TBOBF along with Dave Filoni and Robert Rodriguez, who helmed the Fett-centric chapter of The Mandalorian, "The Tragedy." Steph Green (HBO's Watchmen, The Americans) and Kevin Tancharoen (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) will direct episodes along with Rodriguez, Filoni and Bryce Dallas Howard.
