Michael Fassbender Being Eyed To Play Boba Fett In Gareth Edwards' Star Wars Spinoff?


I guess if we say it long enough it becomes true. The rumor of Godzilla director Gareth Edwards' Star Wars spinoff being about a group of bounty hunters that steal the plans for the first Death Star has gone from that, a rumor to fact, and so much so that rumors of actor Michael Fassbender being eyed to play Boba Fett in the film are being reported.

According to ikwiz, “Boba Fett is a mantle. The name, the ship and the armor gets passed down to a successor. That's how he is brought back for the films and explains the character for later stories.”

They add that Disney understand the importance of the character for fans, and will make sure we will get more of him.

“Fett fans are in for a few surprises. They [Disney] get the cult status of the character, so you're going to see more Boba Fett in the future.”

The site finishes things by saying that "Michael Fassbender is the frontrunner to be Boba Fett, fact!"

As always take it with a grain of salt or two, but Fassbender as a packed year ahead of him. The actor is currently filming the Steve Jobs biopic, and he has the X-Men: Apocalypse, Assassin's Creed, and Prometheus 2 films coming up, so I'm entirely sure if he could manage to squeeze Bobba Fett (if that is in fact a character in the film) in considering the film is also scheduled to open in 2016.

What do you think?
