Star Wars fans delighted: Boba Fett remains true to himself!

THE BOOK OF BOBA FETT

December 03, 2021 at 8:59 pm

Before the start of “The Book of Boba Fett”, a star of the “Star Wars” series chats a little out of the box. Netzwelt offers the brand new information.

• Boba Fett and his sidekick Fennec Shand are and will remain antiheroes.
• They are neither clearly the good guys, nor are they really bad.
• That explains Fennec Shand actress Ming-Na Wen before the start of the “Star Wars” series.

“Star Wars” fans don’t have to wait long until “The Book of Boba Fett” appears on December 29, 2021. The “The Mandalorian” spin-off on Disney + will bring viewers a reunion with the iconic bounty hunter figure (Temuera Morrison) and Fennec Shand (Ming-Na Wen), who was saved from death by him. And as actress Ming-Na Wen now assured, Boba has not changed a bit!

The “The Mandalorian” main character Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) became a clearly good one in the course of 2 seasons. But Boba, who was still hunting Han Solo in the old “Star Wars” films, remains, according to Wen’s statement an antihero.

Wen told Disney’s D23 Magazine (via The Direct) that the character she is playing and Boba Fett are not “the bad guys” would be, but “not so good either.”

“We are the antiheroes. I like to play an antihero. Then you get away with more”, “The Book of Boba Fett” star Ming-Na Wen said literally.

The 58-year-old actress Ming-Na Wen also offered a little insight into the upcoming dynamics of the team consisting of 2 antiheroes. According to this, Boba Fett and Fennec Shand have a near-death experience in common. As “Star Wars” fans know, he was devoured by the Sarlacc (in “Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi”) while she was gazed at certain death when she saw Boba Fett (offscreen) in “The Mandalorian” and made a cyborg.

Such a shared experience naturally creates a close bond – and that is exactly what all viewers and fans at Disney + can look forward to in the near future.
