Sophie Thatcher hints that her character on The Book of Boba Fett will be sticking around and appearing in more Star Wars projects. It was a busy week for Thatcher, as her hit series Yellowjackets wrapped up season 1 to critical acclaim and many wondered what would be in store for season 2.
The introduction to Drash and the speeder-bike gang has generated a great deal of controversy, with some fans in favor of the characters as a homage to George Lucas' earlier film American Graffiti and others saying the characters' colorful bikes stand out too much in the Star Wars universe, particularly the beige color palette of Tatooine.
Most of it was on the backlot. I have something else in the volume, but I also don’t know how much I can say. You can assume my character might be in more stuff. [...] Yeah, I don’t disappear. I don’t even know if I’m allowed to say that. While Thatcher's comment could just refer to her appearing in future episodes of The Book of Boba Fett, the show tells an interconnected story with The Mandalorian, the upcoming Ahsoka series, and the announced Rangers of the New Republic show, which have potential for multiple crossovers.
It is also possible that Lucasfilm has plans to make a spinoff show based around the biker gang, with Thatcher as the lead of the series. While it would seem odd for such a controversial addition to the Star Wars mythos to receive their own show, the fact is that it sometimes takes fans time to come around to an idea or character.
Disney is all over a spinoff
The whole space scooter gang is kind of lame, but interested to see how the characters develope.
The fact that someone actually thought the design of the speeder gang was a good idea and allowed it into a Star Wars show set on Tatooine is just more evidence that no one at Disney has a clue about Star Wars. Worst design decision I've ever seen, hands down.
Disney Star Wars just keeps getting worse 😂
No disrespect to the actors themselves but those characters are by far the worse additions to the star wars franchise there's ever been. So out of place and just unnecessary. Not really sure what Disney are thinking here
Loose thee colourful flying mopeds...
Boba should have disintegrated her on site.
I like Sophie Thatcher in any show, but I'm not completely convinced, the Biker Gang was a good idea. I don't hate it, it just stood out too much, I guess. It was such a heavy contrast to the deaths of the Tuskens.
Yuck. Weak sauce. Like, that sauce is water.
Haha. Drash, aka Trash, is gonna be the Rose Tico of this show. And after the entire internet makes fun of Drash, Lucasfilm will quietly cut the character from anything meaning on screen again.
