Temuera Morrison spoke on why BobaFett returns to Tatooine to run Jabba the Hutt's crime empire, teasing future storylines. 'We’re going to be branching out and looking at other things to do. But yeah, we’ll start small and then we’ll venture out.'
Temuera Morrison explains why Boba Fett wants to run Jabba the Hutt's empire in The Book of Boba Fett. The fan-favorite bounty hunter returned to the Star Wars universe with his own TV series on Disney+ on December 29. Set up in a credits scene in The Mandalorian season 2, Boba Fett's current mission is to become Mos Espa's crime lord — a role previously held by Jabba the Hutt.
Following years of rumors, Lucasfilm finally confirmed that Boba Fett did survive his sarlacc pit fall in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi in The Mandalorian season 2, episode 1, "Chapter 9: The Marshal." The outing wrapped up with a shot of Boba Fett looking over the Tatooine dunes while Din Djarin and Grogu traveled back to their ship. Subsequently, Boba Fett and Mando's paths crossed as the former attempted to re-acquire his father's suit from the latter.
"That’s a very good question. We’re going to start somewhere, I guess. We’re going to be branching out and looking at other things to do. But yeah, we’ll start small and then we’ll venture out. If you focus on the job, you’d better ask the writer that." While Morrison was extremely careful not to reveal any plot details, it sounds like Lucasfilm has a multi-season narrative for The Book of Boba Fett in mind. According to the actor, his character opted to start taking over Jabba the Hutt's empire as some sort of stepping stone towards a bigger target.
Right now, however, Lucasfilm is focused on establishing Boba Fett's reign in Mos Espa. Considering the persisting questions about his past since surviving the sarlacc pit, this is arguably the best creative move for The Book of Boba Fett at this point. After that, perhaps the show can branch out to other planets, since Morrison has already teased a promising "venture out" into some more exciting adventures for Boba Fett. .
