Under the Helmet: The Legacy of Boba Fett

This documentary on the Star Wars character Boba Fett ties in nicely with the new Disney series The Book of Boba Fett.

The character was conceived as some kind of super imperial soldier with an enhanced costume.

He made his debut in the Star Wars Holiday Special in 1978 as a Bounty Hunter. He was also seen with Darth Vader in a parade.

The characters debut was in The Empire Strikes Back where he was played by British actor Jeremy Bulloch but voiced by Jason Wingreen.

Despite a minimal presence in Empire and The Return of the Jedi. Boba Fett struck a chord with Star Wars fans.

This was a diverting documentary with a focus on Kiwi actor Temuera Morrison who now plays Boba Fett. He made his debut in the Star Wars prequel playing Boba's father.

It would certainly be of interest who might know much about the history of the character. The main omission seems to be the lack of acknowledgement about Jason Wingreen.

Good documentary, but why is there absolutely zero reference to Jason Wingreen, the original voice of Boba Fett? It's almost as if there is some sort of contract at Disney that does not allow them to talk about the movies pre-Special Editions.

Seems like a huge disservice to the man that originally voiced the character (and who is the better voice, in my eyes).

This documentary though is short but Is packed with information on character development of Boba Fett. The film included many great interviews and lots film footage from various Star War movies! It is a must watch! This documentary also includes clips from the new series being filmed/developed!

Can't wait to watch the new series to be aired!!

I couldn't get past the squeaky narrator.... This isn't the Mickey Mouse club... oh ... yeah it is.

It should have been Temuera Morrison narrating ...

This doc was great... there was a lot of good info and some things I didn't know about the making of the character. BUT, it's a pretty bad oversight (assuming it wasn't intentional) to not mention the voice of Baba Fett, Jason Wingreen. To me, he is THE voice of the character.
