The "Star Wars" Galaxy's Most Feared Bounty Hunter: Who Is Boba Fett?

LucasFilm

Boba Fett is a name that you're probably familiar with, even if you're not a fan of the Star Wars films. He is the galaxy's most infamous and feared bounty hunter, one in the service of the Empire in the original films, and who seemingly meets his grim demise at the hands of the monstrous Sarlacc in Return of the Jedi.

He's only onscreen in the original trilogy for a grand total of six minutes and speaks only four lines throughout two movies, but Boba Fett has etched his name into legend. Technically you can count a brief cameo in A New Hope as well, but he was a last-minute addition to the film, and only appears in the rereleased version of the original movie.

He has transcended his limited screen time and become one of the most beloved characters in all of Star Wars.

So, who is Boba Fett?
