Disney+’ hit series “The Mandalorian” has been a huge success for the streaming site, with the third season due out sometime in 2022.

“The spin-off of ‘The Mandalorian’ will star Temeura Morrison as Boba Fett and Ming-Na Wen as Fennec Shand,” a description on IMDb read.

The show will follow the pair as they return to Tatooine and stake a claim on the territory once ruled by Jabba the Hutt’s syndicate, the piece noted.

“The Mandalorian’s” creator, Jon Favreau, along with executive producer Dave Filoni, will also serve as executive producers on the new show, alongside Robert Rodriguez, Lucasfilm head Kathleen Kennedy and Colin Wilson.
