What to know from Book of Boba Fett for Mandalorian season 3

 

Now that the book is closed on The Book of Boba Fett, the writing appears to be on the wall: It’s a less-than-ideal look at everyone’s favorite Star Wars bounty hunter (original trilogy version).

For all the promise Boba Fett held over the years for Star Wars fans as an alluring antihero, by the time he finally got his own spotlight, he had been eclipsed by several other characters, including a new favorite Star Wars bounty hunter in Mandalorian armor — the Mandalorian, aka Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal), aka Baby Yoda’s dad.

That eclipsing happened literally in The Book of Boba Fett, which ceded several episodes to Din Djarin and Grogu, beginning with the aptly titled episode “Return of the Mandalorian.” It was meant as a sort of crossover sequence, but it felt more like a full-scale colonization of the spinoff, as Book of Boba Fett became The Mandalorian season 2.5. In the process, it teased some details that are sure to be important for Mandalorian season 3.
