Temuera Morrison spoke about being cast as Boba Fett in The Mandalorian and joked about the cyclical nature of being a celebrity throughout his life. "When we find Boba, he's well-worn, and he's been through a lot. He's a survivor, and he's weathered," Morrison told The New York Times in December 2020. "Now it was time to find out more about what makes Boba tick. Is he more than just a simple man, trying to make his way through the galaxy? Is he tired of all the fighting? Is he tired of all the killing?"
Morrison joked, "The one thing I can relate to is, I'm quite a mature man now and things always change. Sometimes you're in Hollywood, in all the magazines and newspapers. And sometimes you end up in the fish and chip shop in New Zealand, where all the old magazines and papers go. You're old news."
Well, with the success of The Mandalorian, Morrison isn't old news anymore and the publicity has come with some nice cash. According to Celebrity Net Worth, Morrison is worth $1.5 million. Sounds like playing Boba Fett isn't just a meaningful role for Morrison, but an enriching one too. He can get all the fish and chips he wants now!
