Boba Fett Chimes in on Episode VII

♦ by Unknown Wednesday 7 November 2012

We've heard what Luke Skywalker and Han Solo and Princess Leia have to say about Disney's recent buyout of Lucasfilm and Star Wars: Episode VII. But what about the saga's resident badass, Boba Fett?

In a recent interview with Unleash the Fanboy, actor Jeremy Bulloch, who originated the role of the famed Star Wars bounty hunter, offered his thoughts on the studio deal that transpired last week. "Obviously it came as quite a shock to everybody, there must have only been a few people who knew about it, but I think in general it really came as a surprise," Bulloch said. "I always felt that there was more of a story to tell after Return of the Jedi, and always hoped that they would go back and do an Episode VII. I hope it really is good, and that they go back and capture that 'wow' factor that made the trilogy so great."

Assuming Boba really did escape the clutches of that Sarlacc pit in Return of the Jedi, is there a chance Bulloch would reprise his role? "Realistically I'm sure if Boba Fett were to return they would go with someone younger, but I'm still fit and can jump around. I'd love to be involved in some way, maybe a cameo as an aging Bounty Hunter in the corner somewhere," he said.
