STAR WARS ANTHOLOGY (2018): 2nd Film Will be Boba Fett Origin Story

Boba Fett Origin Story is the Second Star Wars Anthology Film. Boba Fett’s shadowy past is officially the subject of the second Star Wars Anthology film. Star Wars fans already know that Boba Fett is a direct clone of Jango Fett, the DNA donor for the Republics’ first Clone Army. Boba Fett witnessed his father decapitated in Star Wars: Episode II: Attack of the Clones.

The second Star Wars Anthology film “will explore the rich world of bounty hunters in the “Star Wars” galaxy” but “is set in a separate movie universe that is not associated with “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” or upcoming Episodes VIII and IX.”

Josh Trank was set to direct the film but recently stepped down. No new director has been assigned. Simon Kinberg is scripting and producing the second Star Wars Anthology.
