Star Wars: The Book of Boba Fett has reassured audiences that Grogu is doing well in the care of Jedi Master Luke Skywalker. In the most recent episode, Chapter 6: From the Desert Comes a Stranger, Mandalorian Din Djarin visits The Child, hoping to present him with armor for protection.
However, Ahsoka Tano advises against it and gives the armor to Luke Skywalker. Luke presents Grogu with a choice, either he chooses the armor or the lightsaber who once belonged to Jedi Master Yoda.
Grogu’s decision is left a mystery by the end of the episode. However, most can probably predict what decision he will make.
Once again audiences were presented with a young Luke Skywalker thanks to some incredible work by VFX artists. The first time we saw a young Luke Skywalker, since Return of the Jedi mind you, is during the season 2 finale of The Mandalorian.
Luke Skywalker has returned in Star Wars: The Book of Boba Fett but who is playing this iconic role?
It was quite the surprise if I do say so myself. Regardless the question we all want to be answered is who is playing Luke Skywalker in The Book of Boba Fett?
Well the answer can be found in the credits and as We Got This Covered pointed out, “his body was played by two people: performance artist Graham Hamilton and stunt double Scott Lang, both of whom are listed as playing “Jedi”.”
But that’s not all. Not only was YouTuber Shamook one of the VFX artists but “Luke’s voice in the episode also followed the route used in The Mandalorian, being digitally recreated via the Respeecher voice synthesizer, though the sound team almost certainly also has an original voice track from Hamill to model the AI performance on.”
That is some incredible dedication! To think how none of this would have been possible when Star Wars first graced movie screens!
