The Book of Boba Fett: Fans fix yet another Star Wars character

The Book of Boba Fett: Fans fix yet novel Star Wars character

The Book of Boba Fett spoilers lie ahead. The penultimate chapter of the Star Wars series featured even more characters from ringing Disney Plus series The Mandalorian. Aside from Luke Skywalker, Grogu, R2-D2, Ahsoka Tano and Cobb Vanth, episode 6 also introduced a new picture to the live-action universe.

Cad Bane (voiced by Corey Burton, with stunt actor Dorian Kingi), the ruthless Duros bounty hunter and hired gun for the Pyke Syndicate, strolls into the desert Freetown to confront Vanth (Timothy Olyphant). The popular character is familiar to fans of The Clone Wars, the lauded animated series set during the three ages between the prequel films Episode II: Attack of the Clones and Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. Bane is Boba Fett’s mentor and was imagined to show up in the spinoff series.

However, fans aren’t precisely pleased with his altered live-action look. YouTube channel Cinematic Chapters hasty rectified Bane’s appearance. Take a look at the more faithful fabricate below.

Changes mainly see Bane regain his darker blue skin, listed with a narrower face. “I imagine the reason for Cad Bane’s lighter skin sparkling and different facial proportions are a mix of his age and the live-action translation of a stylized character,” Cinematic Chapters explained.

This isn’t the obliging time fans have rectified the look of a beloved picture. Deepfake YouTuber Shamook went viral with a video de-aging Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker in The Mandalorian, and Shamook has since been hired by Lucasfilm. When the de-aged Skywalker appeared in episode 6 of The Book of Boba Fett, his look had vastly improved.

We’ll see if Bane invents another appearance in the finale of The Book of Boba Fett, airing Feb. 9.
