Disney Plus has released three new character posters forStar Wars: The Book of Boba Fett, which will serve as a treat to appease followers of the series until the new episode arrives later this week. The images provided look at some new additions to the bounty hunter-centered narrative that will likely play an integral part in forthcoming events.
Last week’s character posters forStars Wars: The Book of Boba Fettintroduced audiences to two significant individuals, the mayor’s Majordomo and Madam Garsa. Each made a brief appearance in the shows first episode, sparking intrigue into the role they could potentially play. A bit more surfaced about each in the following episode, but a cloud still lingers around their purpose and motivations. The mayor’s Majordomo’s appearance and veiled threats unearthed speculations that the mayor of Mos Espa may have been behind the assassination attempt on Fett and Shand, which panned out to be accurate, despite the mayor’s denial. The matter, however, became complicated once the mayor directed Fett to seek answers at Madam Garza’s Sanctuary cantina, which is where the new character officially came into play.

The first newBook of Boba Fettposter reveals a Wookie bounty hunter named Black Krrsantan, who officially made his first live-action debut into theStar Warsuniverse after being introduced in Marvel’sDarth Vadercomic in 2015. Audiences haven’t seen much when it comes to viable antagonists for the bounty hunter turned daimyo, but Black Krrsantan looks to be an adversary who will giveBoba Fett and Fennec Shand all the troublethey can handle. Black Krrsantan’s appearance, however, comes secondary to the proceeding poster, which is that of Jabba the Hutt’s twin cousins. They both enter, looking to reclaim their cousin’s seat, which is not something Fett or Shand will allow to happen. The sister and brother each look to play different parts with universal intentions. The brother’s voice takes a more vocal stand, while the sister appears to be pulling the strings deep within his ear.
The additional image provided is the Tusken Raiders, whose relationship with Fett has been an evolving connection. Their presence at the moment only arrives in flashbacks offered by the titular character, showcasing the bounty hunters journey after the events ofStar Wars: Return of the Jedi.Fett went from captive to inducted community member throughoutthe first two episodes ofThe Book of Boba Fett, helping the Tusken Raiders in many ways. The posters showcase two critical community members: the clan’s supposed chief and their best warrior. Fett has had a unique relationship with each, earning their respect in different wys, which came full circle at the end of the previous episode. It’s clear that their impact is significant and has shaped the bounty hunter’s rebirth, but their connection to the present is relatively unknown. Their inclusion in this week’s posters hints that they still have a more prominent role to play, the nature of which will arise as things progress.
The posters envelop the characters in a sea of orange sand, highlighting where this story occurs. The arrival of these new posters indicates that each new character will appear in this week’s upcoming episode, but their actual impact may not surface until later on down the road. Nonetheless,theBook of Boba Fettposters generate excitementand provide audiences with something to look forward to as things develop. Fett’s position as daimyo has become a complicated web of concern and looks to become even more embroiled as enemies threaten his position of power. It will be exciting to see how things play out within this week’s new episode, but until then, the arrival of the new posters will have to suffice.
New posters are sure to arrive next week after the third episode, but what new characters will enter the newly establishedStar Warsuniverse? That’s the question on the minds of many, with answers closely seated on the horizon. While not much has surfaced, enough has risen to paint a picture of where everyone stands on the thin line between ally and foe. Who can Fett and Shand trust as things move forward?Only theBook of Boba Fettcreators knowthe answer to that puzzling question, but Disney Plus will let audiences in on the secret soon enough.
The Book of Boba Fettpremieres new episodes every Wednesday on Disney Plus.
