Overview

"Holiday Special" and "Droids" Voice

No voice actor listed in Boba Fett's first appearance, Star Wars Holiday Special, an animated segment that premiered November 17, 1978.

Cree Summer, the daughter of Don Francks, tells Great Big Story that Don was the first voice of Boba Fett. The official Star Wars website (https://www.starwars.com/news/the-star-wars-holiday-special-boba-fett), IMDb, and Nerf-Herders-Anonymous also think it was Francks.

For Boba Fett in the Droids animated series in 1985, it's believed Don Francks did the voice.

One film historian insists it was Gabriel Dell who did the SWHS voice, but that's not corroborated anywhere.
