Fett was reintroduced to the live-action Star Wars universe in the first episode of The Mandalorian‘s second season last year, having escaped Tatooine’s hungry Sarlacc in the years since Return of the Jedi.
In the trailer, we see the return of the assassin Fennec Shand (Ming-Na Wen), who assisted Boba in getting his armor back and helping Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) retrieve fan-favorite Grogu from the Empire. The series ended with Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) returning in a surprise CGI appearance to become Grogu’s new Jedi Master.

While another user claimed that Disney will be the best source of entertainment this holiday season, with upcoming Disney+ shows like Boba Fett and Marvel’s Hawkeye, as well as Tom Holland’s Spider-Man: No Way Home:
There’s plenty more live-action Star Wars coming to Disney+. The Mandalorian will be returning for a third season, while former Jedi Ahsoka Tano (Rosario Dawson), exiled Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor), and rebel spy Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) are getting their own shows.
