Some actors connect with the Star Wars fanbase more than others. Alec Guinness famously hated the original films, unable to comprehend their popularity. Others have been a lot more amenable, putting in a lot of time for the fans who adore the universe they helped create.

A stellar example is Jeremy Bulloch, who is most famous for playing Boba Fett. Despite never having his voice attached the character, fans have really connected with the actor. It probably helps that he has a few cameos out of the suit as well. We've already raised he was a pilot on the Tantive IV in Revenge Of The Sith, but he also played an Imperial Officer in Empire Strikes Back.

It's more than just a visual cameo though - Bulloch gets a bit of action, dragging Leia away on Luke's arrival and getting the honour of being ambushed by a bunch of security guards.

Could his two cameos be related, with Officer Bulloch being the grandson of Pilot Bulloch who betrays his family's ideals to join the Empire? We smell a trilogy of Star Wars books.
