'The Mandalorian' Premiere Ends With Surprising 'Star Wars' Return

Warning! If you want Mandalorian spoilers, this is the way.

Hes baaaack and, no, were not even talking about Baby Yoda .

Disney+ kicked off the Season 2 premiere of The Mandalorian on Friday with a few surprises.

Timothy Olyphant plays the marshal of a space town; a giant sand monster terrorizes the locals of Tatooine, and, of course, theres more of the Child, aka everybodys favorite magical green 50-year-old baby.

But a surprise reveal at the end of the episode will be what gets fans of the original Star Wars trilogy buzzing: It seems like Boba Fett is back.

In the episode, the Mandalorian (Pedro Pascal ), in search of others of his kind, winds up in a remote part of Tatooine only to discover that a fellow Mando seen there is apparently just Olyphant (in another role as a marshal) wearing Mandalorian armor.

Olyphants character, Cobb Vanth, isnt a real Mandalorian. Hes just a dude who bought the armor off of some Jawas and used it to help save his town from occupation.

Vanth agrees to hand over the armor if the real Mandalorian will help his village rid itself of a Krayt dragon, a giant sand monster that eats pretty much whatever it wants. The Mandalorian agrees, and hijinks ensue as Mando helps save the day.

Throughout the episode, the show drops Easter eggs related to Boba Fett, the original Star Wars trilogy bounty hunter that everyone fan-dalorians over.

First, Olyphants Vanth appears in what seems like Boba Fetts armor.

The Krayt dragon also makes its home in an abandoned Sarlacc pit. (Fett is last seen in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi falling into a Sarlacc pit .)
