Last week’s season finale of The Book of Boba Fett on Disney+ reached 1.5 million U.S. households, soaring past the season two finale of The Mandalorian, according to Deadline.
- The five-day finale draw for The Book of Boba Fett was 36% higher than that of the season 2 finale of The Mandalorian.
- The Book of Boba Fett finale was directed by Robert Rodriguez and written by Jon Favreau and Noah Kloor.
- Ironically, the uptick in viewership came after the previous two episodes focused heavily on characters from The Mandalorian, which had fans talking for weeks.
- With the season 2 finale of The Mandalorian debuting in December 2020, the increase in Disney+ subscribers also likely played a role in the difference in viewership.
- Disney reported that Disney+ reached 129.8 million subscribers worldwide at the end of their Q1.
- The biggest season finale viewership to date for a Disney+ original series remains that of Marvel’s Loki, which drew 1.9 million U.S. households through its first five days.
