Hold onto your helmets: The Book of Boba Fett is finally streaming.

Disney+ has debuted the first episode in its new Star Wars series, starring Temuera Morrison as the titular bounty hunter. Morrison first voiced Boba Fett for the Star Wars expanded universe, before embodying the character for Season 2 of The Mandalorian.

"What he brings to the performance of Boba is just awesome," director Dave Filoni said of Morrison in a new behind-the-scenes clip. The Book of Boba Fett series was created by Jon Favreau and is executive produced by him, Filoni, Robert Rodriguez, Kathleen Kennedy, and Colin Wilson.

"[Morrison] brings all sides of himself when he plays the character," agreed Rodriguez, who directed episode 1. "I think the audience is going to be surprised just how likable this character is because of Tim."

"I'm just one part — another little, small cog in the machine," Morrison offered. "And it's all adding up to magic."

The Book of Boba Fett "Chapter 1" is now streaming on Disney+.
