Matt Smith’s shooting schedule for Starfighter starts the week’s Star Wars news and Boba Fett’s blaster is up for auction.
Star Wars fans have two movies on the horizon to look forward to. Up first, The Mandalorian and Grogu will arrive in theaters May of 2026. Next, Starfighter is scheduled for May of 2027. In this episode of Podcast Stardust, we discuss an update on Matt Smith’s shooting schedule for Starfighter. Also, Boba Fett’s blaster from The Empire Strikes Back is up for auction. This sparks a conversation about the potential for a museum for these props, and which blaster from Star Wars we would like to have.
In this fully armed and operational episode of Podcast Stardust, we discuss:
- How our Halloweens went and any Star Wars experiences we had,
- Matt Smith’s shooting schedule for Starfighter,
- Boba Fett’s EE-3 from The Empire Strikes Back is up for auction, and
- What blaster we would pick from the set if given the chance.
