I mean, I do agree, but on the other hand Hollywood ain’t exactly overflowing with Maori-led movies, which a Fett movie would be.
Everyone seems to hate the idea of a Boba Fett movie (and I’ve never dug his character that much myself), buuuuut – if they did make a Boba Fett movie, it would be one of the very few big sci-fi/fantasy movies to have a person of colour (a Maori man specifically, even though race as we know it doesn’t seem to exist in the Star Wars universe) as the title character. I mean, you can count them on the fingers of one hand, can’t you?
So, you know, I wouldn’t denounce the entire concept just yet…
Update: Temuera Morrison is still totally up for playing Boba

Star Wars + characters of colour
