The Mandalorian The Disney Plus series looks a lot like Boba Fett, but get ready for reality. CNET sister site ComicBook.com has confirmed that Boba herself will appear in the second season of The Mandalorian and will be played by Temuera Morrison, who starred in Boba Fett’s father Jango Fett in the 2002 film Star Wars: Clone Attack. Representatives from Morrison and Lucasfilm did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Bounty hunter Boba Fett has long been a Star Wars fan favorite. He appears first in the animation about the infamous Star Wars Holiday Special and then in live action in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back.
As for The Mandalorian, the series focuses on another bounty hunter named Din Djarin, who is mainly referred to as “Mando” and is played by Pedro Pascal. Mandalorians are a clan of experienced warriors, and although Din Djarin was not born into the group, he was brought up by them and adopted their ways and traditions.
In the series, he pursues and finds a child of an unknown species and decides that he cannot hand it over to his client, so he keeps it with him and protects it. The child has become an extremely popular character, and although neither his style nor his name has ever been revealed, it is commonly referred to as “Baby Yoda” based on the old Star Wars character from Yoda.
