The Mandalorian continues to dominate the Star Wars discussion with reveal after reveal. This time, it was the finale episode of Season 2 that ended with the biggest bang possible, including a very special end-credits stinger for the future of the Disney+ Star Wars universe in The Book of Boba Fett.

For those who haven't seen it: At the end of season 2, there is a scene where Boba Fett makes a short appearance as an announcement for The Book of Boba Fett, which will be coming in December 2021. Some folks wondered whether this meant that the show will be taking the place of the The Mandalorian Season 3. Will both shows run side by side? How does this new project fit into the current slate of projects?

Jon Favreau, creator of The Mandalorian, recently did an interview on Good Morning America to clarify the exact nature of the project. Favreau made a point to explain that The Book of Boba Fett is going to be a continuation of sorts, but not a replacement for The Mandalorian. The show will be running next year instead of The Mandalorian season 3, but production The Mandalorian will pick up as soon as The Book of Boba Fett concludes.

Pre-production for The Mandalorian Season 3 is currently underway, though, so they'll be ready to hit the ground running when time comes to start filming. The Book of Boba Fett is planned to star Temuera Morrison alongside Ming-Na Wen, with Jon Favreau, Dave Filoni, and Robert Rodriguez executive producing. According to Disney, the show is set within the same timeline as The Mandalorian, so it will likely have some effect on the adventures of the universe's current cast of characters.

While this may be disappointing news for those who wanted to jump straight into a new season of The Mandalorian, this new show could be a welcome change of pace. Of course, there will be a buffet of Star Wars content for everyone given the huge number of announcements at Disney's Investor Day event. Whatever flavor of Star Wars content is needed, there will surely be something to satisfy everyone over the next few years.

The Book of Boba Fett will premiere on Disney+ in December 2021.
