Well, now we can add another to the list. As confirmed in the final episode of The Mandalorian Season 2; we learned that fan favourite Boba Fett will indeed be back, in a set of live action adventures due to arrive in December 2021, under the title The Book Of Boba Fett.

During a post credit scene, Boba Fett and Fennec Shand return to Tatooine to take care of unfinished business. 

We see Return of the Jedi character Bib Fortuna, Jabba’s old right-hand man, sitting on his throne in the old palace. Fennec (Ming-Na Wen) enters shooting most of the creatures around him, and blasting the shackles off the blue dancing girl. Then Boba (Temuera Morrison) enters. Bib exclaims, “Boba, I thought you were dead!” Boba then shoots him dead and takes the throne at Jabba’s palace.

Jon Favreau and Star Wars stalwart Dave Filoni will produce a number of the other announced Lucasfilm series for Disney Plus, so there’s a strong possibility they’ll oversee the spinoff.

Temuera Morrison is expected to reprise his role. On top of being a logical regular for The Book of Boba Fett, Ming-Na Wen is also set to return as Fennec Shand in a voice role on the upcoming Clone Wars sequel series The Bad Batch.
