‘The Book of Boba Fett’ is over, and here’s everything we know about season 2, its story, premiere date, and more.

The Book of Boba Fett comes to an end with a final episode that is bigger than anything we’ve seen on the series to date. Not only has it been the longest episode of all, but it has also given a lot of play to your Disney + subscription. All the excitement around the ending probably makes you wonder if the series will return or not. Will this be the last time we see old Boba Fett?

But before we get into whether or not The Book of Boba Fett will get a second season, we need to talk about how the ending leaves the former bounty hunter and his motley crew of allies. Hopefully, you’ve already seen the ending because we venture into SPOILER territory in the next section.

‘The Book of Boba Fett’: ending explained

Although the finale concludes the main plot of the series, it leaves things open enough for a second season. After an hour-long battle against the Pyke Syndicate, Fett’s army – which includes Din Djarin, the Teen Bikers, a squad of Freetown marksmen, Black Krrsantan, Peli Motto, Grogu, and a Rancor – Finally manages to put an end to the invading force of fish-faced gangsters. Boba Fett even has a one-on-one showdown with his old mentor Cad Bane and, using a gaffe stick and his Tusken fighting skills, Boba emerges victorious.

It sounds like Bane is dead, but the franchise is unlikely to keep a character as cool as Cad Bane six feet under. And to underscore how well the Pykes have been defeated, Fennec Shand kills every leader of Tatooine’s underworld traitor factions, along with the mayor and head of the Pyke Syndicate in a matter of seconds. She is very good at her job. The season ends with Fett and Shand strolling the streets of newly liberated Mos Espa and the citizens expressing their thanks.

Okay, the real last scene of the season is Din Djarin and Grogu leaving Tatooine in the Mandalorian’s new starfighter, and this clan of two blasting off into hyperspace for The Mandalorian Season 3 (coming on Disney+ later this year). of this year).

Well, the last real scene happens in the middle of the credits. We slowly approach Boba Fett’s bacta tank to see Cobb Vanth (Timothy Olyphant) recovering from Cad Bane’s explosion last week. And there, to make sure Vanth gets back on his feet is the cybernetic surgeon (Stephen Bruner aka Thundercat) who brought Fennec Shand back into shape.

‘The Book of Boba Fett’ Season 2

Disney and Lucasfilm haven’t said anything official yet about the fate of The Boba Fett Book, but it’s not uncommon for them to say nothing about future seasons. The Boba Fett Book was indeed marketed as a limited series and not the debut of a new continuing series, but that can always change. The real question is whether there is still more story to tell. Judging by the end of this season, I’d bet so.

Those closing moments give the series what it’s been missing: a colorful cast of contrasting characters. Boba, Fennec, Krrsantan, Drash, Skad… It finally looks like the whole gang is here. Plus, there’s the inevitable return of Cobb Vanth. 

That has to happen somewhere, and that should be in The Book of Boba Fett Season 2 (especially since The Mandalorian needs to stay away from Tatooine – we’ve seen so much of Tatooine!). And despite the flaws of the first season, a second season could benefit greatly from having a great cast to play with and, theoretically, more time to prepare a more cohesive story.

‘The Book of Boba Fett’ Season 2: release date

That’s the big question, right? Considering The Mandalorian had a yearly schedule until The Book of Boba Fett arrived, it’s possible we’ll see a new season of Boba Fett in early 2023. However, that would probably require The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett to have separate teams. 

The reason why we haven’t received the third season of The Mandalorian is probably that Boba Fett and The Mandalorian have basically the same team: close to 500 people have worked on both series. If both series are going to have an annual schedule, they’ll need a lot more help.

That’s without taking into account all the other Star Wars series that is on the way. Obi-Wan Kenobi is probably next, Andor and The Mandalorian season three will follow, and then there’s the Ahsoka Tano series and the still-mysterious The Acolyte. There’s a lot of Star Wars to come, and the likelihood that we’ll get a second season of The Boba Fett Book, and the likelihood that we’ll get it sooner rather than later, really depends on Lucasfilm’s long-term plans for all of these. series. There is too much to do.
