The Book of Boba Fett, the latest installment in the Star Wars franchise, has officially landed. Available Dec. 29 exclusively on Disney+, the Mandalorian spinoff series stars Temuera Morrison as the bounty hunter Boba Fett and Ming-Na Wen as the mercenary Fennec Shand.
The first season contains seven episodes, which will be released every Wednesday at 12:01 a.m. PT starting Dec. 29.
Written by Jon Favreau and directed by Robert Rodriguez, the new show follows the character who was assumed dead after falling prey to the sarlacc in Return of the Jedi. He survives the tentacled ordeal on Tatooine (as seen in flashbacks in The Book of Boba Fett‘s first episode) and joins forces with Fennec Shand to take over Jabba the Hutt’s palace and his network of criminal cronies.
