Boba Fett, the legendary bounty hunter who delivered Han Solo frozen in carbonite to Jabba the Hutt in between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, was believed to be dead after falling into the Sarlacc pit in Return of the Jedi.
But fans have been arguing for the character’s survival almost from the beginning, and plans for a movie exploring the character’s story after falling into the Sarlacc pit were in development shortly after Disney bought Lucasfilm. Development stopped, however, after Solo performed low at the box office. Still, fans wanted more of Boba Fett, and Disney took the opportunity to reintroduce the character during the second season of The Mandalorian.
Fett’s return was more than fans could hope for as the reveal that a series based on the character would be coming to Disney+. The Book of Boba Fett will take an unprecedented deep dive into the character of Boba Fett like we’ve never seen before.
Though details about the plot of the story are yet to be fully revealed, here are 25 Star Wars characters and places we would like to see appear in The Book of Boba Fett.
1. Ahsoka
Ahsoka Tano, the former Padawan of Anakin Skywalker and a fan favorite character from The Clone Wars animated series, was introduced into live action in The Mandalorian. Though she will be appearing in her own series on Disney+, it would be fun to see the character appear in The Book of Boba Fett.
Ahsoka, as was revealed in The Mandalorian, is on a desperate search for Grand Admiral Thrawn, presumably because he was the last person to see Ezra Bridger (the main character of Star Wars: Rebels) before the two were whisked away to some unknown location in the galaxy.
Though Ahsoka and Boba Fett’s interactions are limited to one standoff in The Clone Wars, Boba’s ability to track down and find people could be very useful to Ahsoka, creating a viable possibility for the character to appear in The Book of Boba Fett. Boba Fett also had an interesting relationship with Ahsoka’s former master who became Darth Vader. It was Boba Fett who tracked down the pilot who destroyed the Death Star and learned that his name was Luke Skywalker. When he delivered this news to Vader, the Sith Lord immediately realized Luke was his son.
With Anakin/Darth Vader appearing in the Ahsoka series, it would be a fun exploration of Darth Vader’s past for Ahsoka to dig for clues about her former master through Boba Fett. Additionally, Ahsoka’s connection to clones such as Rex, who, as a clone of Jango Fett, shares the same face as Boba Fett, could create some interesting interactions.
