On November 12th Disney will be hosting its first ever Disney+ Day, which will be a day meant to honor the streaming service by thanking fans with new content, and looks at content to come. The new looks are promised to be from Disney’s major franchises, which include Marvel and Star Wars, and luckily both franchises will be getting some love on D+ Day 2021.
While all the Marvel and other D+ content looks great for this celebration, Star Wars fans should take note of a special releasing on D+ Day 2021. The special is described as, “celebrating the origins and legacy of Star Wars’ legendary bounty hunter, Boba Fett,” so get ready to consume some Fett content.
Now this doesn’t sound like a trailer for his upcoming show, rather it sounds like a true special dedicated to fleshing out who he was before his Mando resurrection, and who he has become since. I’m guessing it may be like the Marvel Studios LEGENDS specials that provide recaps of key characters and villains to get casual fans primed for Book of Boba, but one would also have to think that the special will also feature some fresh content from the Book series. If anything, fans will get to see some Neo Boba Fett in one form or another.
It’s not clear if anything else Star Wars related will get teased on D+ Day, but I wouldn’t be surprised if there were brief teasers or some sizzle reels for the Kenobi series and/or Andor (the release does mention trailers and whatnot also being released on this day for upcoming D+ content). Hell maybe even Bad Batch S2 will get some love!
That may be too much to ask for, but at least the Boba stuff is confirmed, and one has to think some Book of Boba content will be covered. The first trailer should release before 11/12, but who knows, maybe Disney will save that for this big day too. It’s not like Star Wars fans need convinced to watch it, so why go crazy with reveals left and right?
