APPARENT SPOILERS for The Mandalorian SEASON TWO FOLLOW

The Hollywood Reporter:

Temuera Morrison, who played Jango Fett in 2002's Star Wars: Attack of the Clones, will appear in season two of the Disney+ Star Wars series.

Sources say Morrison will play Boba Fett, the famed bounty hunter who first appeared on the big screen in 1980’s Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back and who seemingly died in 1983’s Return of the Jedi as he fell into a sarlacc pit. Actor Jeremy Bulloch portrayed the character in the original trilogy.

Boba Fett is expected to play just a small role in season two of the series, after the character was teased in the season one episode “The Gunslinger,” when a mysterious figure sporting the bounty hunter’s trademark spurs approached the apparently lifeless body of Fennec Shand (Ming-Na Wen).

Add that to the apparent casting of Rosario Dawson as Ahsoka Tano, and The Mandalorian Season 2 is looking to have a lot more familiar faces than the first season did.

Personally, I’d be fine with The Mandalorian continuing to chart out unseen eras and characters from the Star Wars saga, but if I’m going to trust anyone here, it’s the braintrust of Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni.

The Mandalorian Season 2 is currently set to hit Disney+ in Fall 2020.
