Boba Fett made his live-action return to Star Wars in The Mandalorian's "Chapter 14: The Tragedy," an episode directed by Robert Rodriguez. Series executive producer Jon Favreau originally approached Rodriguez to direct the important episode because he loved Rodriguez's interpretation of the character. He also decided to pitch to Rodriguez and the studio the idea of creating more episodes centering around the character. Although Rodriguez usually avoided franchises, that changed with Boba, as Rodriguez felt that he was an underdeveloped character and that it was as if he was an original character Rodriguez could expand.
Reports of a Boba Fett–centered Disney+ miniseries first surfaced online in early November 2020. The reports also mentioned that the series' filming had begun. On December 10, 2020, Kathleen Kennedy teased that the "next chapter" of The Mandalorian would arrive on Christmas of 2021. Although many fans perceived this to be the third season of The Mandalorian, "Chapter 16: The Rescue," the Season Two finale of The Mandalorian released on December 18, 2020, teased that The Book of Boba Fett would be the show to arrive in that timeframe instead.
Trailers
The first teaser trailer was released on November 1, 2021. The promotional trailers mainly used the first minutes of the series premiere as, according to Rodriguez, the second half of the episode gave too much information.
