In the first season of The Mandalorian, Din Djarin begrudgingly accepted a job working with rookie bounty hunter Toro Calican on Tatooine: track down one of the galaxy's most feared assassins, Fennec Shand. Djarin and Calican wound up doing exactly that, though not without struggle. But while Djarin went to get a ride, Shand convinced [...]
For previous Star Wars shows like The Mandalorian, all of the trailers and TV spots have only shown footage from the first half or so of the season, leaving plenty of surprises for the latter half of the series. We have assumed that's also the case with The Book of Boba Fett, especially since so [...]
Boba Fett is back, and he's a bigger deal than ever. A fan favorite ever since he first appeared in 1978 in the infamous Star Wars Holiday Special (and then in 1980 in his much more well-known debut in The Empire Strikes Back), Fett has rarely received the spotlight in Star Wars storytelling, left instead [...]

Some exciting news dropped today from Deadline, reporting that Natasha Liu Bordizzo has been cast by Lucasfilm to bring Sabine Wren to live-action in the upcoming Ahsoka series!

While Star Wars hardly got involved with the big Disney+ Day celebration whatsoever, there was a new special that dropped, taking a behind-the-scenes look at the history of Boba Fett. "Under the Helmet: The Legacy of Boba Fett" is a 22-minute documentary looking at Fett's story and how he came to be a beloved Star [...]
There are a great many things that Star Wars is known for. But one that people don't often think about is the fantastic documentaries that have accompanied the saga. In fact, a couple of these documentaries, which look at the making-of certain films, are widely considered gold standards not just amongst Star Wars but amongst [...]
