10 Star Wars Villains Who Weren't As EVIL As You Think

10. Jango Fett

Long before his baby boy would go on to become one of the galaxy's most feared bounty hunters, Jango Fett could be found helping the likes of Count Dooku/Darth Tyranus, playing a part in the attempts to assassinate Padmé Amidala, and clashing with a few Jedi during Episode II: Attack of the Clones.

All that tells the story of a beskar-sporting bounty hunter who didn't care which side of the fight he was on, only that he got paid.

But there was actually a lot more to the genetic template for the entire clone army than that.

On top of being classed as an "honourable" man by old friend/pirate Hondo Onaka (at 9:50 in the clip below), Jango evidently cared for his additional request after agreeing to be the clones' genetic template: his unaltered clone son, Boba.

While he would go out of his way to label the rest of the clone army as "livestock bred as cannon fodder", Jango took the time to train and raise his boy (via StarWars.com), teaching him valuable combat skills and the ruthlessness needed to survive in this unforgiving galaxy before his shocking death via lightsaber on Geonosis.

Again, the Mandalorian-armour-wearing mercenary wasn't what you'd class as a perfect role model by any means, but he clearly loved his boy and had an excellent relationship with his clone son.

Put simply, this deadly assassin was still a pretty good dad.
