Hollywood premieres are huge occasions, bringing out the celebs, the superstar company, and the movers n’ shakers of the film n’ TV industries. These occasions are sometimes supposed to supply the primary official debut of no matter venture is being celebrated and promoted. But because of rising considerations over the omicron variant of the coronavirus, Disney’s huge Book of Boba Fett premiere occasion has been postponed to February 8, a mere day earlier than the present’s seventh and remaining episode airs on February 9.

To be honest, the premiere occasion date wasn’t going to line up with the debut of the present, both. The Book of Boba Fett debuts on the Disney+ streaming service on December 29 (one week away as of press time!), and the premiere was initially set for January 4, the day earlier than—really mere hours earlier than—the second episode turned obtainable at 12:01 am PT on January 5. It appears affordable to assume that attendees would get to look at each the primary and second episode collectively, simply so they may take pleasure in some a part of the present earlier than us peasants. There’s no telling what Lucasfilm will determine to debut in February on the rescheduled premiere, however the remaining episode would be the solely footage nobody’s seen but.

Variety, who broke the information, stated company included have been Star Wars TV masterminds Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni, The Book of Boba Fett government producer Robert Rodriguez, Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy, and star Ming-Na Wen, with extra names to come back… assuming the occasion isn’t pushed again once more and even canceled altogether. Somehow, I’m having a tough time imagining America’s going to get a greater grip on the coronavirus in a month and a half than it does now.
