10 Star Wars Nightmares That Could Come True In 2023 (And Beyond)

A lot could go wrong in this galaxy from this year onwards...

Make no mistake, there is an awful lot to be excited about if you're a Star Wars fan at this moment in time.

In 2023 alone you're about to be treated to both the Ahsoka and Skeleton Crew live-action series, with The Mandalorian season three and The Bad Batch season two also dropping on the small screen earlier this year. And Cal Kestis has finally made his long-awaited return alongside BD-1 in Jedi: Survivor.

That, along with the recently announced next wave of big-screen offerings recently revealed at Star Wars Celebration 2023, has quite rightly provided a ton of hope for the future.

But that still doesn't necessarily mean all of your dreams for this galaxy far, far away are set to come true in the coming months and years. In fact, based on the information out there currently, there's even a chance that some of the most painful nightmares in recent Star Wars history could become a reality in the not too distant future.

Again, hopefully the next few years provide countless glorious moments and a triumphant return to cinemas for all things Star Wars. However, from certain icons perhaps having no place in future entries, to other much-discussed projects that may never get the chance to blast off into hyperspace, these are those Star Wars horrors that could rear their heads from 2023 onwards.

10. Boba Fett Doesn't Return

After largely being overshadowed by the likes of Din Djarin and co. during his own Book of Boba Fett spin-off, an inevitable cameo or bigger appearance from the son of Jango was expected by most in Mando season three. Especially given that the titular character briefly takes a trip to Tatooine early into the season.

However, as Temuera Morrison himself would reveal not too long ago, he was actually originally set to appear in the show again. Yet, in the end, nobody got in touch with him. So, he was just left "waiting and wanting to give up", as reported by Comicbook.com.

The star also speculated during his appearance at the SUPANOVA Comic Con and Gaming convention in Melbourne, Australia (via TheDirect) that Disney's recent budget cuts could be to blame for his absence. And after a few recent conversations in L.A. involving talk of "changes" and "cutbacks", the star noted how there was no point trying negotiate for more money and he'd now have to just "see what happens."

Hopefully this isn't the last we've seen of Morrison's version of the beloved figure. But judging from those comments alone, most will have a bad feeling about Boba's live-action Star Wars future...
