Any Star Wars fan will definitely know Boba Fett the Bounty Hunter. Whether you first see him in the original trilogy or the prequel trilogy, it doesn't matter. Ever since his debut in The Empire Strikes Back, the armour clad hunter has garnered massive likings and fans from around the world. Many has demanded that a Boba Fett spin-off film to be released for years, and with recent Disney acquisition of Lucasfilm and Episode VII to begin production soon this year it seems that a spin-off is more possible than ever.
Lawrence Kasdan previously worked on The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi and is currently working with J.J. Abrams on Episode VII. In a recent podcast episode of AMC Movie News, director Jon Schnepp dropped the bomb that a spin-off is indeed happening and a Star Wars legend is behind the creative process.
“I know they haven’t announced it, but one of them is Boba Fett,” Schnepp said on AMC Movie Talk. “I know. I know for a fact. Sorry, I will never reveal my source, but it is the one written by Lawrence Kasdan.”
Terrific news indeed. If you're like me and love the way the original trilogy's story is written then all hopes will be high for a great Boba Fett film that will quench the thirst of fans.
