00:00Him. I don't think fans could have ever predicted that Boba Fett would go on this kind of
00:05vision quest from a lizard with the Tusken Raiders. So what was your reaction?
00:11You like? Oh, I loved it. Yeah, we don't. It's so much fun to get to see all of these sort of
00:17new chapters. Yes, it's great. And I think that's what it's about. It's just revealing
00:23the real Boba what he's been through. We're stripping away the layers,
00:27finding him at his vulnerable points, the influence of the Tuskens. They trained him to
00:36make him hard. They trained him to survive in these harsh conditions, taken into their tribe,
00:48becoming schooled in their arts and their martial arts,
00:54having the sensei, the Tusken sensei take me under her wing. Actually, I must mention she
01:01done a great job, Joanna Bennett. She played that Tusken who trained me. And what a wonderful job.
01:08Actually, I met Joanna on Aquaman. She was Nicole Kidman stunt double as well. So I had a
01:17wonderful relationship. I already knew. That's why we had that kind of good rapport, too,
01:21with all the training. And so I think this is what the series is about, revealing
01:27some of these stories in the back background story. So we've been blessed that we didn't
01:31see too much of Boba in those earlier episodes. So now it's a blessing. Now we can discover his
01:36world. Yeah. Along with the fans. So I'm glad you enjoyed it. Yeah. So we went on a trip,
01:43the rebirthing. I think that's what that was all about. Finding the branch.
01:50I mean, yeah, what I loved when I watched it was really seeing Boba going from that
01:58solo alone bounty hunter and then becoming part of the Tusken tribe and family and, you know,
02:06nurturing that sort of humanity in him that I don't think was there earlier on. It was it was
02:15really as a fan, as a Star Wars fan, it was remarkable and it was so much fun to watch
02:20that transformation. So it's only going to get better, better. That's right. Episode two kind
02:26of said, you know, Episode one had to do a lot of setting up, I guess, and a little bit of
02:30filling in the gaps. And then I felt Episode two is really, really sort of went up a notch,
02:37I feel. But we'll wait and see. But it was very exciting. Very exciting. Wonderful place to work.
02:44Wonderful people we had to work with. Very talented people. And we we had a great time as
02:48well. Didn't we? We had a great time. Fabulous time. Can't wait to do it some more.
