Despite only appearing on screen a few times in the original Star Wars trilogy, Boba Fett has become one of the saga’s most iconic characters. From his unusual beginnings to his untimely demise, this is everything you need to know about the story of Boba Fett. During the last days of the Old Republic, a group of cloners on the planet Kamino created a clone army supposedly on the orders of the Jedi High Council. To do this, they used the genetic material of a bounty hunter named Jango Fett.
There was one clone, however, who remained unaltered at Jango’s request. This unaltered clone is Boba Fett, who was raised to believe that he is Jango’s actual son and that’s where this story begins. Enter Obi-Wan Kenobi. When Obi-Wan arrives on Kamino to question Jango about his involvement in the assassination attempt of Padme Amidala, their relationship gets off to a fairly rocky start. Obi-Wan knows that Jango is the killer he’s been looking for, and Jango realizes he and his son will need to make a quick getaway. It’s at this point that Boba Fett’s hatred for the Jedi Order begins even as a child, he’s witnessed their distrust of his father, a man he very clearly looks up to. After deliberating with the Jedi Council, Obi-Wan Kenobi returns to apprehend Jango Fett. By the time he gets back, however, Jango and Boba are in the process of making their escape from Kamino. When a fight breaks out between Obi-Wan and Jango outside Jango’s ship, Boba is forced to defend his father against the Jedi.
