Boba Fett film definitely not happening

[ChrisIII]

I wouldn't call it canceled really, as there was never any major confirmation of it being made in the first place. (Ditto with Obi-Wan) Plus with Solo flopping the story/anthology films are pretty much on hold regardless.


We're getting the Mandalorian TV show of course, which is pretty much built on Fett's mystique anyway, so there's that.

Thus.... it is saved.

Good, Boba Fett sucks.

That's good to hear.

I never really had any interest in Boba Fett to be honest.

Maybe they are starting to learn that releasing a film per year is unproductive.

It's both relieving and disappointing to me because the interest is there, but with the way Star Wars fans currently are and what happened leading up to Solo's release, I'm not surprised Disney killed it.

Also worth mentioning is the landscape for a Fett movie is not there. A lot of the problem Solo faced around it's release besides the JO from people who hated TLJ weirdly enough was that it went up against several other big names. It was a big year for summer films and even this winter has some big releases. So waiting until these franchises die down a little and the Sequel JO stops a bit is probably for the best. It also allows Disney time to refine tastes for any potential film seeing as it's going to be about 2 years or so following 9 that we know anything definitive.

I wouldn't be surprised if Fett is moved to television given the current TV push, but I guess we'll see where the landscape is going post-Mando. Although if The Mandolorian is popular it might land itself a TV show and if it can't get Morrison to voice Fett, Baker is still the clone voice they use.
