This is our spoiler review of the Disney+ documentary, "Under the Helmet: The Legacy of Boba Fett and the animated short titled "The Story of the Faithful Wookiee," available in the Star Wars vintage collection.
The documentary begins with the concept art design of Boba's armor. The first person to wear the suit was editor Duwayne Dunham. George Lucas was so impressed with the look of the suit, he decided Boba should make his first public appearance in the county parade in 1978.
Actor Jeremy Bulloch played Boba in "The Empire Strikes Back" in 1980 and Return of the Jedi in 1983. For the prequels, Temuera Morrison portrayed Boba's dad, Jango Fett, in "Attack of the Clones" in 2002. Morrison returned as Boba in "The Mandalorian" and "The Book of Boba Fett", both series on Disney+.
"The Story of the Faithful Wookiee" was a part of the "Star Wars Holiday Special" that aired on CBS in 1978. This animated short is unique because it features the voices of Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Anthony Daniels, and James Earl Jones and it's the first television appearance of Boba Fett!
