London : English actor Jeremy Bulloch, who played Boba Fett in the original ‘Star Wars’ trilogy, has died after health complications, including several years living with Parkinson’s disease. He was 75.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, actor Daniel Logan, who grew close with Bulloch after playing a younger version of Boba Fett in 2002’s Star Wars: Attack of the Clones, confirmed that Bulloch died Thursday (local time) in his native England.
“Jeremy was the one to teach me how to be a gentleman and interact with fans at conventions and show up and be present. He was a true English gentleman,” Logan told The Hollywood Reporter upon news of the actor’s death.
Bulloch spent his final weeks at St. George’s Hospital in Tooting, close to the home where he and his wife, Maureen, had lived for more than 50 years, according to a statement on the actor’s website.
“Maureen and two of his sons, Jamie and Robbie, were with him during his final days,” the statement reads.
Bulloch played the mysterious, fan-favorite bounty hunter in The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.
