Since appearing in Season 2 of “The Mandalorian”, Boba Fett (Temuera Morrison) has been seen several times without his helmet, as his armor was stolen by the Jawas and sold to Cobb Vanth (Timothy Olyphant).

However, filmmaker Joe Johnston, co-creator of the character’s look, said it was a mistake to reveal his face.

In an interview with The New York Times, he claimed that much of the success surrounding Fett was the mystery behind the accessory.

Additionally, he argued that the helmet suggested that Boba could be anyone wearing his armor, not just the Jango Fett clone.

“I never wanted them to show Fett’s face. I never wanted them to show the actor living the character. Taking off his helmet puts an end to the mystery. Originally, before they took off the helmet, it could have been anyone.

He continued:

“I know we can imagine how he looked because of Jango, but that doesn’t mean his clone was the one wearing the armor.”

So, do you agree or disagree with his opinion?

Remember that the premiere of “The Book of Boba Fett” is scheduled for December 29.

Some titles hint at the plot, like “The Syndicate,” which is expected to follow Fett as the new Underworld King on Tatooine.

Rumors have also hinted that the plot may give Mandalore more attention, as suggested by episode five: “The Homeworld”.

Another interesting detail is that the first episode will be counted as Chapter 17, i.e. it will be a direct continuation of the 2nd season of ‘The Mandalorian’, serving as a sort of season 2.5. from the series with Pedro Pascal.

The series will also explore Fett’s dominance of the criminal underworld after assassinating Bib Fortuna (Matthew Wood) and taking charge of Tatooine.

Fortuna was Jabba the Hutt’s staunch servant and took office after the leader’s death in Return of the Jedi.
