So while most of the surviving clones have probably died of old age by the time of The Mandalorian, Boba Fett is only just entering his 40s. But unlike his "brothers," Boba ages at a normal rate. Based on what we've learned of this period, Boba was created in a lab on Kamino alongside the rest of the initial batch of Clonetroopers. Boba was born in 32 BBY, the same year as the events of The Phantom Menace. He's only about 41 years old in the era of The Mandalorian. The Dark Side takes a heavy toll on your skin. Case in point: Despite the fact that Sebastian Shaw was in his late 70s when he played the unmasked Darth Vader in Return of the Jedi, the character himself was only 45 when he died. How Old Is Boba Fett in The Mandalorian? Because only there are only about 19 years of time separating the prequel and original trilogies, a lot of Star Wars characters aren't as old as you probably assume them to be. It takes a lot of work (or some major recasting) to bring back those iconic characters as they looked in the 1980's. Of course, the heavy use of CGI de-aging in Luke's scenes also shows why we may not see much of those human OT favorites. As the surprise return of Mark Hamill's Luke Skywalker illustrates, most original trilogy characters wouldn't look significantly older in The Mandalorian compared to the classic films. We don't know exactly how much extra time has elapsed in Season 2, but it doesn't appear that more than a few months have gone by. ![]() ![]() 59 Images The Mandalorian: Season 1 is set in roughly 9 ABY, or about five years after the events of Return of the Jedi.
