‘Full of Surprises’
Lucasfilm
In a slight change from the pattern established by “The Mandalorian,” which gave us two seasons of eight episodes each, the first season of “The Book of Boba Fett” is scheduled to air only seven individual hours. That’s still plenty more storytelling than most fans ever thought they’d get for the bounty hunter who seemingly met his anticlimactic demise at the hands (er, tentacles) of the dreaded Sarlacc in “Return of the Jedi.” But in addition to his apparent allergy to certain death, the man behind the mask is now speaking up and assuring viewers that there are some major surprises still to come. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, actor Temuera Morrison sounds downright giddy about coming back to the “Star Wars” universe once more. In fact, the article notes that co-star Ming-Na Wen had to intervene and stop Morrison from spilling a few too many details about what lies in store for us in the coming weeks. Here’s what Morrison had to say:
“Yes, full of surprises. The Book of Boba ‘full of surprises’ series. [laughs] Yeah, we’ve got some good stuff coming up. Ooh, wait till episode seven, wow!”
Admittedly, that’s not much to go on or even a particularly groundbreaking revelation about a season finale, but one can’t fault the fan-favorite actor for playing coy. He’s simply happy to be here, as he goes on to describe his experience meeting Jon Favreau on the set of 2009’s “Couples Retreat.” As he puts it, “Sometimes, life is about relationships, and while I didn’t get to do much on ‘Couples Retreat,’ I got to meet Jon. And at that time, he was prepping to direct ‘Iron Man.’ So he obviously sat around a table where they said, ‘Well, Boba’s got to look like Jango [Fett], so let’s see what Tem is doing.’ So I had this wonderful opportunity to get back on this journey, this vessel, this walker, and it’s been exciting and thrilling.”
Temuera Morrison is thrilled to be in the suit once again, and so are we. You can catch new episode of “The Book of Boba Fett” every Wednesday on Disney+.
