Four years ago today we lost one of the true gentlemen of the Star Wars saga and one of the first big names to tour the world on the convention circuit, and as such met thousands upon thousands of fans, delighting them all. Jeremy Bulloch first joined the saga in 1980 when he portrayed the bounty hunter Boba Fett in The Empire Strikes Back, and through later appearances in Return of the Jedi and as Captain Jeremoch Colton in Revenge of the Sith he cemented his legacy, and while doing so endeared himself to a grateful fandom who were as fond of him as he was of them.
Here at Fantha Tracks we have dozens of stories and memories of Jeremy, from trips across Europe travelling to Celebration to conventions and fan meets, always with a smile and a story, and that’s not unique. Jeremy had a way of connecting with fans, giving them moments they’ll never forget, and for that we – as a collective fandom – could never thank him enough.
