Boba Fett takes on the Star Wars underworld in first 'Book of Boba Fett' trailer

The first trailer for The Book Of Boba Fett has dropped, with the Disney Plus series teasing the titular bounty hunter's rise to prominence in the galactic underworld.

In the trailer, Boba Fett (Temuera Morrison) and Fennec Shand (Ming-Na Wen) set about establishing themselves as major players amongst the gangsters of the Star Wars universe, using the palace of Fett's former employer, Jabba the Hutt, as their base of operations.

One scene teases Fett and Shand being hired for a job by a mysterious Ithorian, while another shows them trying to rally Jabba's former captains to now swear their allegiance to Fett. When one asks why they should not just kill Fett instead, Shand reminds them that such talk would have led Jabba to feeding them to one of his many pets. Fett says that "Jabba ruled with fear. I intend to rule with respect."
