The Book of Boba Fett: Release Date And Everything About The Star Wars Series on Disney+
Jon Favreau has already confirmed that The Book of Boba Fett is not about the third season of The Mandalorian, but about a new spin off
The end of The Mandalorian revealed a clue to the future, The Book of Boba Fett was announced in a post-credits scene in which Boba Fett and Fennec Shand appeared in the old palace of Jabba of Hutt (the legendary villain who caught Han Solo in carbonita) to seize the “throne” of the criminal world from Bib Fortuna, who had been in charge for the last 5 years.
At first it was thought that The Book of Boba Fett could be the name of the third season of The Mandalorian (although it would definitely be weird for it to be called that, taking the focus off Mando, Grogu and the upcoming battle), but Jon Favreau and Disney revealed that this is not the case, it is a new spin off that focuses on the legendary mercenary of the Star Wars canon, and would take place at the same time as the third season of the series with Pedro Pascal, which is the most Disney Plus hit to date.
The series The Book of Boba Fett will be produced by the same Jon Favreau with the collaboration of Robert Rodriguez (director of the chapter of The Tragedy in The Mandalorian) and will join offs spin of Ahsoka Tano with Rosario Dawson and Rangers of the New Republic, which are part of the 11 Star Wars titles that Disney is developing to create an Avengers- style universe.
Also in the works are an Obi-Wan Kenobi limited series starring Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen as Darth Vader a series about characters Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) and Lando Carlissian, and a mystery thriller called The Acolyte from the creator of the Russian series. Doll Leslye Headland, plus various animated projects from Star Wars films by Taika Waititi and Patty Jenkins. In the case of The Book of Boba Fett, what has fans somewhat confused is the release date, the possible connection it could have with season 3 of The Mandalorian and its timeline that would allow crossovers between the two series. At the moment not much is known, but there are some questions that already have answers.
The Trailer And Teasers:
The first look at the series promises an action-packed story, on the level of The Mandalorian. The trailer synopsis reads that: “The Book of Boba Fett” a thrilling Star Wars adventure shown in a surprise ending credits sequence after the end of “The Mandalorian” season 2, finds legendary bounty hunter Boba Fett. and the mercenary Fennec Shand navigating the galaxy’s underworld as they return to the sands of Tatooine to claim their claim to the territory once ruled by Jabba the Hutt and his crime syndicate.
In addition, the new Disney teaser reveals more details about the world of this legendary character, such as the settings or the rest of the characters that will be accompanying him on his missions and adventures. In addition, Jon Favreau revealed that the series will have elements of the gangster genre, while Robert Rodríguez assured that we will learn more about the true personality of Boba Fett and his bounty hunting skills.
When It Premieres on Disney+?
It has already been confirmed that the series will arrive on Disney+ on December 29, 2021.
Will It Be Connected To The Mandalorian?
We know from what Jon Favreau said that the series is set on the same timeline as The Mandalorian the hit Disney Plus series which means that it will start right after the events at the end of the second season, where we saw Fett and Fennec taking control of Jabba’s former crime palace from Hutt.
The stories of Boba Fett and Din Djarin were connected in the events of the second season of The Mandalorian, it is not necessary that their paths cross again, but it is definitely possible that the two mercenaries will meet again in the future, but not we know how that could happen.
Are They Going To Be Released At The Same Time?
According to Disney’s announcement, the third season of The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett will be released in December 2021. This is rare because Disney usually leaves their big titles on separate dates so that they do not steal audience from each other, but this could mean two things. First, it’s possible that The Book of Boba Fett is a shorter series that premieres just before season three and serves as a kind of introduction to it. Second, there is also the possibility that the stories of the two series are connected and that they are released at the same time because the characters could cross between one and the other. For now, we only know that December will be a month full of Star Wars stories on Disney Plus.
Who Are The Protagonists?
In addition to confirming the premiere date and the fact that this would not be the new season of The Mandalorian, Disney also revealed that the series will star Temeura Morrison as Boba Fett and Ming-Na Wen as Fennec Shand. As for the rest of the characters, Disney has not confirmed any further details for now.
What is The Book of Boba Fett About?
The end of The Mandalorian gave us a good clue about it, we know that Fennec and Boba will continue a lot of the events of season 2, mainly that scene from the credits in which they took the throne from Bib Fortuna. The Book of Boba Fett will likely show Boba Fett inhabiting and / or taking over the criminal world that was previously ruled by Jabba.
With Robert Rodriguez behind the project, we can assume that the series will have a lot of action and probably some tributes to the original Star Wars saga. The official synopsis reads: The Book of Boba Fett, a thrilling Star Wars adventure, finds legendary bounty hunter Boba Fett and mercenary Fennec Shand navigating the underworld of the Galaxy as they return to the sands of Tatooine to claim their territory once ruled by Jabba the Hutt and his crime syndicate.
Is Disney Preparing a Multiverse?
It is clear that Disney wants to recreate the success of the Avengers saga with Star Wars, so it is possible that they have a multiverse in mind, although not in the sense of adding time travel and alternate realities, but in a way that would allow us see a series of crossovers between the different Star Wars series and the return of some classic characters.
Boba Fett is not the only one, Obi Wan and Anakin Skywalker also have a series, Ahsoka Tano has hers and the new films will show stories of other characters that have not been explored, so it is very likely that we will come across a huge universe full. of stories connected in one way or another.
