An upcoming “Star Wars” standalone movie will reportedly focus on one of the franchise’s most popular villains: Boba Fett. Kinberg, who was a producer on “Logan,” will also be a producer of the Boba Fett film. Disney has not yet confirmed the report and there is no information on release dates, cast or when in the “Star Wars” timeline the film will take place. A movie based on Boba Fett has been in development on and off for a number of years, with several names reportedly attached to it, including “Chronicle” director Josh Trank. The bounty hunter played a small but key role in the original trilogy, helping Darth Vader track down the protagonists in Cloud City in “The Empire Strikes Back.” There, Han Solo was frozen in carbonite for Boba Fett to deliver to Jabba the Hutt.
