I, like you, hadn’t really watched the movies, or really any star wars stuff. (Star Trek fan-the original series.)

I had only seen small scenes of the 1st movie (episode 4) until I watched the Mandalorian. Since I enjoyed that, I was told to watch the clone wars tv show/cartoon, as it would explain the Mandalorian history a bit and introduce you to younger versions of characters that show up in that show. I did, and for the most part, I enjoyed it. It had some hit and miss episodes (and really made me hate the Jedi) but overall was a solid show. I also found it very helpful with references to other characters and events. I think the clone wars series (not the movie- I havent watched that) which is, by the way, also a Filoni driven show, will also help with the book of Boba fett-it will give you more info/backstory on the characters that showed up in this episode for example. And also more insight and backstory on the cartels, like the Pykes and the Hutts. I know it is 7 seasons but dont be discouraged, the seasons are short-ish and the episodes are 30min. I thought it went by quickly.

I also very much enjoyed the bad batch. Also Filoni helmed, I believe. And it gives insight into the fall of the old republic and the rise of the Empire. And also has a certain end scene character show up as well.

Hope that helps.
