In what can only be considered unsurprising news, it has been announced that Logan director James Mangold will helm a standalone Star Wars movie centered on the bounty hunter character Boba Fett.
It will be a part of the Star Wars series that will not be a part of the main Skywalker saga, following the previously released Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and this weekend’s release of Ron Howard’s Solo: A Star Wars Story. (My guess is the title of the film will eventually be Boba Fett: A Star Wars Story). Unconfirmed reports of an Obi-Wan Kenobi film have been surfacing almost since the beginning of Disney’s acquisition of Lucasfilm. The film will reportedly be directed by Stephen Daldry and star Ewan McGregor.
