The Book of Boba Fett, the upcoming Star Wars series from Lucasfilm, will launch exclusively on the Disney+ streaming service on Wednesday, December 29. Fans got their first tease about The Book of Boba Fett during an end-credit scene on the finale of The Mandalorian‘s second season. The series focuses on legendary bounty hunter Boba Fett (Temuera Morrison) and mercenary Fennec Shand (Ming-Na Wen), staking their claim on the late Jabba the Hutt’s territory of the galaxy’s underworld. Fennec Shand appeared in the first season of The Mandalorian, apparently left for dead but rescued by Boba Fett, whom she now travels with as a seeming debt of honor. Together they face off against a collection of alien mobsters in the Tattoonie underground–where Fett very confidently sits before them on Jabba’s throne. Here is how to watch The Book of Boba Fett when it debuts.
