Boba Fett Star Temuera Morrison Issues Star Wars ‘Fax Campaign’ to Help Convince Lucasfilm to Give Him 'Another Chance' — but Will It Make Any Difference?

Boba Fett prima Temuera Morrison has called connected Star Wars fans to inundate Lucasfilm with requests to spot the histrion reprise his relation arsenic the iconic bounty hunter, with nary motion yet of The Book of Boba Fett Season 2.

Morrison primitively played Jango Fett successful Star Wars: Episode 2 – Attack of the Clones but years aboriginal rejoined Star Wars arsenic Jango's lad and clone Boba Fett.

The past clip we saw the 64-year-old New Zealander play Fett was astatine the extremity of his ain show, The Book of Boba Fett, successful February 2022. The Disney+ spin-off bid proved divisive, with immoderate Star Wars fans feeling it went excessively acold successful softening the iconic villain's character.

Three-and-a-half years aboriginal and it feels similar Boba Fett is genuinely stuck successful a postulation far, acold away, with not a whiff of a instrumentality coming from Lucasfilm oregon genitor institution Disney.

As reported by Collider, Morrison, alongside Daniel Logan, who played young Boba/Jango Fett’s clone son, told fans astatine the FanX's Tampa Bay Comic Convention that there’s thing successful the works successful presumption of a caller appearance.

He past utilized the accidental to contented his plea: “I deliberation we truly person to treasure those moments now. All of you request to nonstop a fax, oregon a letter, oregon an email, to those powers that beryllium astatine Lucasfilm. I'm definite they'd emotion to perceive from everyone. Please springiness Daniel Logan and Temuera Morrison different accidental and enactment them somewhere.”

In truth, Morrison’s ‘fax campaign’ feels much successful anticipation than expectation. Lucasfilm has fixed nary denotation that The Book of Boba Fett volition return. Will determination beryllium a The Mandalorian Season 4? Lucasfilm has yet to say, but if it does happen, possibly Boba Fett would popular up there. Otherwise, if Lucasfilm really makes the Dave Filoni New Republic team-up movie it has announced, possibly Boba volition articulation forces with Mando and Ahsoka successful an Avengers-style combat against Grand Admiral Thrawn.

In June, Morrison revealed helium really pitched Lucasfilm connected Boba Fett appearing successful Ahsoka Season 2 ("can I beryllium Rex and instrumentality his helmet off, please?"), pointing retired that helium plays not conscionable Boba Fett but each the clones based upon the character.

He besides said helium bumped into Star Wars stewards Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau precocious and reminded them Boba Fett inactive exists. Apparently “they benignant of said, 'Well, well,' they didn't privation to accidental excessively much, enactment it that way. There was a fewer whispers of — they didn't privation to accidental excessively overmuch — but they conscionable near it astatine that."

That speech near Morrison feeling similar "I've been preserved for a aboriginal date, and I'm going to beryllium tastier." He compared his feeling pursuing the brushwood to going to grandma’s location and seeing “that preservative jar of peaches up connected the shelf.”

“That's what I think,” helium continued. “I'm 1 of those peaches, and I've been enactment up connected the shelf. I've been preserved for a aboriginal date, and I'm going to beryllium tastier.”

Last year, speaking astatine the From Clone Troopers to Bounty Hunters sheet astatine Fan Expo Chicago, Morrison cited The Book of Boba Fett's mediocre reception arsenic the crushed for the erstwhile beloved quality not returning successful Star Wars: The Mandalorian & Grogu. He added that Disney hadn’t asked him to look successful the incoming movie oregon a 2nd play of The Book of Boba Fett.

The show, which told the communicative of Boba Fett arsenic helium escaped from the Sarlacc Pit and acted arsenic a miniature play of The Mandalorian, was among the worst received Star Wars shows. "This show's reception does look to person impacted the aboriginal of the quality successful the franchise," Morrison said astatine the time.
