Star Wars Spin-Offs: 10 Actors Who Could Play Boba Fett

We run down the prime candidates for the role of "Galaxy's Badass-In-Chief"

Those rumours of a Boba Fett movie just won€™t go away. As if the excitement of the long-awaited Star Wars reboot wasn€™t enough, there's been speculating that one of the spin-off films will follow the adventures of everyone€™s favourite bounty hunter. As it's all speculation, obviously very little is known. It might follow Boba in the gaps between the original series, as he journeys round the galaxy with his fellow bounty hunters. Or it might pick up his story where it left off, maintaining the EU continuity of him defeating the sarlacc. Or it could go ballsy and repeat the prequels, tracking his path from orphaned child to badass extraordinaire. Basically, you could end up getting anything from a young, hopeful whippersnapper to a wizened old veteran. Basically, the possibilities are not only endless, but endlessly exciting. One thing's for sure: in whatever form he features, Boba Fett won€™t be an easy character to cast. In the original series he has about three lines and spends most of his time standing around looking cool. The role requires someone who can pull off brooding, dangerous, and remorseless, but also likeable, all in one go. Whoever's cast will also have to do an incredible job to live up to the fans' expectations. Here are ten actors who could not only pull it off, but would do so in style.
