The Book of Boba Fett ended up overshadowing its title character by delivering episodes focused on The Mandalorian. Those included cameo appearances from Luke Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano, marking the first time we've seen them share the screen in this Galaxy Far, Far Away.
What we haven't seen is their first meeting, but it probably won't surprise you to learn that The Clone Wars, Star Wars Rebels, and Ahsoka mastermind Dave Filoni has that story mapped out.
The question is, will he ever get to tell it?
"Yeah, I have a whole story about that, that I devised many years ago, actually," he told Screen Rant (via StarWarsNews.net). "I had to put that tile in place to do what I’m doing now and understand it. I haven’t found a way to tell that story yet – I’ve told a piece of it afterward, but we’ll see. You’d love it, it’s a great story!"
Asked what fans can expect from his Rebels follow-up, Filoni added: "I would say that there is a strong aspect of that from what I showed [at the Mando+ panel], and it’s kind of fulfilling the promise of a story that I was gonna tell, and I think we’ve found the best way to tell it. So I’m excited about that, we’ll see how it evolves. It’s just exciting to get to do it, so I can’t wait for people to see it."
There was a time when Filoni's sequel to that popular animated series was also going to be animated, but it's now evolved into the live-action Ahsoka. We can't imagine Luke will factor into that, though we never expected to see him in The Mandalorian or The Book of Boba Fett, so who knows?
Alongside Jon Favreau, Filoni has proven himself someone who should definitely be overseeing these Star Wars projects, so Lucasfilm is bound to give him the platform to tell this Ahsoka/Luke story at some point. We'll just have to wait and see when it happens...
