SDCC: Boba Fett to Appear in The Force Unleashed II, Because Boba Fett
I’m pretty excited about The Force Unleashed II game, but the news that Boba Fett will have a “small but pivotal role” isn’t part of that. All I can hope for is that he’s shoehorned in a little more gracefully than he was in the prequels, although that’s a pretty low bar to hurdle. I can also hope that I’ll get used to his Jango Fett voice instead of the Jeremy Bulloch voice I knew for the first 25 years of my life, but I’m not going to hold my breath on that one. (Via Kotaku)
