A Boba Fett movie has languished in development hell ever since Lucasfilm started planning its Star Wars Anthology lineup.
If the Boba Fett movie is thawed from carbon freeze, it’s unclear if it would take place sometime during the Empire’s reign or if Lucasfilm would take after the now-Legends Star Wars canon and have Boba Fett escape the Sarlacc Pit so he can have more adventures post-Return of the Jedi.
In fact, Fantastic Four reboot director Josh Trank was hired to helm the bounty hunter’s adventure, and reportedly there was even a teaser reel for the movie that was intended to be shown at the 2015 Star Wars Celebration.
However, Trank left the movie shortly before that event, publicly saying that he made the “personal decision to move forward on a different path,” although some reports claimed that his exit was due to creative differences.
