The Book of Boba Fett, starring Temuera Morrison as the titular bounty hunter and co-starring Ming-Na Wen as fan-favourite Fennec Shand, debuts this December exclusively on Disney+.
Director Robert Rodriguez (Alita: Battle Angel) recently spoke to the folks at Collider about the latest live-action Star Wars spin-off.
Rodriguez shared this tantalising tease:
“[I] can’t say anything about it at all right now, but it’s coming out in December… Wait until you see what’s coming. It’s going to blow your mind. That’s all I can say. I can talk it up all I want, because I know it over-delivers. It way over-delivers. People are going to be so pumped when they see it.”
The Alita: Battle Angel and Sin City director goes on to talk about the cutting-edge technology utilised for series such as The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett:
“At first I thought maybe it made the most sense for a series because you could have loads that you could reuse and places you can come back to often that would be impossible to get to on a regular basis in a series. I don't know if I would use it very much in a movie where it's just one-off scenes that are done. They're only a couple minutes long and then you never go back to that location again. Like on a sequel to 'We Can Be Heroes' even I was thinking ‘Would I even use the volume? Or would I shoot a traditional green screen again?’ Because I got some pretty cool stuff.”
The third season of The Mandalorian goes into production in September. But Rodriguez hasn't confirmed whether he's back to helm another episode of the Emmy-winning series.
