For Ming-Na Wen, it is a role of a lifetime to be in Disney+’s The Book of Boba Fett as part of the Star Wars Universe.
Already a favorite of Disney, the actress bounced around from voicing Mulan to being one of the core actors in ABC’s Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Now she remains in the family after her introduction as Fennec Shand in Disney’s The Mandalorian to the continuation in The Book of Boba Fett.
Her bounty hunter character, Fennec Shand, had quite a journey confronting The Mandalorian and perhaps getting killed. Alas, death is never a final thing in the Star Wars Universe as her character is revived in a new role as the right-hand woman to Boba Fett in the new series.
The Book of Boba Fett follows the most beloved and feared bounty hunter (played by Temuera Morrison) as he returns to Tatooine to take the Jabba the Hutt’s seat as the new crimelord. Boba Fett finds claiming the crime syndicate may be harder than it seems after the Hutt’s rule with an iron fist.
