In this interview I talk with stuntman/coordinator
Dickey Beer best known for his roles in
Star Wars Return Of The Jedi, as "Boba Fett"
Bike scout trooper, Gamorrean Guard, Barada, and more!
We discuss his stunt work on Jedi as Boba in the famous 
sail barge scene where Luke Skywalker/Mark Hamill, and crew
showdown with that vile gangster Jabba the Hutt.

He talks about the shoot in Yuma Arizona where one of the
largest set ever constructed for a major motion picture was built, as well as the largest assembled collection of aliens and creatures 
headed by Phil Tippett were present. 

Lastly Dickey gives his words of wisdom for aspiring actors/stunt people.

Join us for Episode 13, where we chat with the legendary actor about what it was like to be a part of one of Ray's classic movies. John reminisces about on-set incidents, what it was like to shoot the live-action sequences for the Dynamation processes, and his thoughts on the film more than 5 decades later.
