Stand-Alone Movies BOBA FETT and Young HAN SOLO Spin-Offs Being Planned?

The Story Group is the decider of what is canon in the comics. But yea, you may be right. They might green light a dark adult oriented film. I hope they do.

 

Rogue One from what I've gleaned is pretty damn dark, so I don't think a Boba Fett film will be a problem.

 

Seeing as Temuera Morrison is boba fett in canon it would only work as a pass the torch story if its set after episode 6

 

No way. Bennett absolutely passes as a younger Temuera Morrison. That role is all him.

 

While that probably wouldn't work for a movie set after episode 6 since its over probably over 30 years after Episode 2 so Temuera Morrison probably would be fine to play him at the age he is now

if its set before episode 4 that one could possibly work

 

If they can recast Han Solo, there's no reason they need to bring Morrison back.

 

I've been saying this guy's absolutely perfect for about two years now. I hope they make this Han Solo movie a "cat and mouse" type of movie between these two.

 

I am not saying he'd be bad in the role at all... but, since the latest rumored names that came up for young Han were all in their earily to mid 20's, they'll probably be looking for a younger actor for him too, unfortunately

I mean Manu is already older then Morrison was in the prequels

 

Only because harrison ford can't play someone in his mid-20s

 

They will need to work out how old boba fett would be in whatever time they set the young han solo in

 

My point is, if they can recast a character and actor thought of together so much, why do they need to bring back Morrison? What would be the benefit? He's not a draw and it's not like he put some stamp on the character in his voice dubbing apart from sounding bored, same if you want to count his Jango performance. They can cast better.

 

Lets be honest if they recast they will have to get someone who will pretty much do an impression of morrison since Fett in canon is a clone of jango just like every clone is and clone wars and rebels have pretty much done the same

if they set it as a young boba fett in his 20s then they could probably get someone who looks like morrison and can sound abit like him to play a slightly more different fett but thats probably the most realistic way of looking at it

If its set after episode 6 then morrison could easy play that role and it actually wouldn't surprise me if they did a pass the torch story since they ain't gonna wanna forget about the fetts as they continue forward

 

Fett would be in his 30s if it was set shortly after ROTJ.

 

Would that be the case though? He is a child in AOTC and he is in the clone wars cartoon as a kid although not sure how old he is in clone wars but still there is a couple of years between AOTC and ROTS and then 20 years in between Episode 3 and episode 4 and then there is there is a certain amount of time In between the OT to get to episode 6

I wouldn't want to guess since I don't know what the gaps were between the OT films but I imagine mid 40s would be the most plausible

 

Let's say 12 in AOTC. 15 by the end of Clone Wars. 35 by the start of the original. 4 years from the original to ROTJ. He's 39.

 

That's a good guess but I recall Temuera Morrison saying he was 10 during AOTC. It was in the "Bucket Head" special feature.

 

Wow. Nothing against Morrison, but if they ever recast Boba is has to be Manu. That would be awesome.

 

To me, it doesn't matter who looks like what since I want Boba to not take off his helmet. I don't care for as a character; I care for his badassery. He should be like Judge Dredd: Masked the entire time but surround him with characters with depth who can act as surrogates for the audience.

 

Cad Bane should be the villain in Fett's film.

 

IMO a Boba Fett film should be a combination of Dredd, John Wick, and The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly: a very gritty sci-fi neo-noir crime western where the protagonist is mysterious and there is very little exposition.

 

They could just photoshop Fett and his weapons in Dredd(2012) and it'd be my favorite movie of all time, as far as I'm concerned.

 

The latest:

It is hinted that the BF film may take place after ROTJ.

 

Article speculates that the supposed Boba Fett movie may actually be a Obi-Wan Kenobi standalone. Says Obi-Wan, not Boba Fett, is "the most deserving for a standalone film" and "would probably be the most interesting character to see" .

Yeah it should play up the strengths of the character.
