Boba Fett's future is in doubt: the character will not appear in the new Star Wars

Temuera Morrison holds a unique place in the Star Warssaga, debuting as Jango Fett in the saga's second episode.

As the genetic template for the Republic's clone army, he became the face of millions of soldiers. He subsequently voiced Django, Boba, and all the clones, including Captain Rex and Commander Cody, in the animated series. Years later he returned to feature films. First in the showThe Mandalorian, and then in the solo movieThe Book of Boba Fett. However, this could be the end of his story.

According to Collider, Morrison confirmed during the Tampa Bay Comic Convention that Boba Fett is not currently involved in any of the upcoming "Star Wars" projects. war. “No,” the actor quickly responded when asked about Fett’s upcoming appearance.

I think we really need to appreciate these moments now. All of you need to send a fax, letter or email to Lucasfilm management. I'm sure they'll be happy to hear from everyone. “Please give Daniel Logan and Temuera Morrison another chance and place them somewhere.”

The panel also included Daniel Logan, who played young Boba inAttack of the Clones. He's a little more optimistic about the chances of a comeback:

There will be many opportunities. Especially for this guy [Morrison], especially considering the era ofStar Warslike inAhsokaand everything that happens afterReturn of the Jedi. The craziest thing aboutStar Warsis that you don't find out about filming for about a week, maybe two, or even less, right? But the fact is that Temuera is the greediest person inStar Wars. He played so many characters.

Boba Fett will not appear in The Mandalorian and Grogu

The most logical project for the appearance of Boba Fett was the upcoming film The Mandalorian and Grogu.The action will take place after the events of the third season ofThe MandalorianandThe Book of Boba Fettand will continue the story of Din Djarin.

The film, directed by Jon Favreau, will be the first full-length release in the franchise since 2019. However, Morrison has repeatedly confirmed that he was not invited to participate in the film. His co-star Ming-Na Wen confirmed that Fennec Shand will also be absent.

This is likely due to the mixed reception from audiences ofThe Book of Boba Fett. The series was criticized for its slow pace, uneven tone, and for having the main character absent for two full episodes. Perhaps that's why the studio decided to focus on Din Djarin and Grogu.

The premiere of "The Mandalorian and Grogu"in cinemas will take place on May 21, 2026.
