The return of Boba Fett was one of the most talked-about elements of The Mandalorian season 2, as the fan favorite bounty hunter hadn't been seen - in his adult form - in live-action Star Wars media since 1983. To pull off his grand comeback, Lucasfilm dusted off an old idea from the Legends universe and revealed that Fett had survived his trip into the jaws of the Sarlaac beast after all, allowing him to team up with Din Djarin and claim the top spot in the galactic criminal underworld.
