Original Voice of Boba Fett in "Empire"
To the surprise of fans, Wingreen's voice was re-recorded by Temuera Morrison for the DVD release of the films, which were available after Attack of the Clones had Morrison cast as Jango Fett.
Origin
"My agent called me and said to go over to the recording studio, where I met Gary Kurtz and Irvin Kershner. Normally, you see the face of an actor you're dubbing, so you have to lip-synch. But that was no problem here -- I could say the lines at any time. I got in position, they ran the film a few times, and I said the lines. Kershner came out and made a suggestion or two and went back in the control room, I did it again, and I was finished." -- Jason Wingreen, as quoted in Star Wars Insider #49 (May/June 2000)
