Temuera Morrison appeared in Disney +’s Obi-Wan Kenobi series for a brief moment, and now, fans know just exactly who he was playing.
Who was Morrison playing in Obi-Wan Kenobi?
Morrison surprised fans when he briefly showed up in the Obi-Wan Kenobi miniseries, dressed as a disheveled Storm Trooper and asking for any spare credits.
According to the recently released Star Wars: Dawn of the Republic: Visual Guide book (via The Direct), Morrison’s character is listed as Nax. The character entry goes on to note that he served in several battles across the Clone Wars, fighting on Teth, Umbara, and Christophsis. Despite his dedication to the 501st Legion, Nax was ultimately forced to retire from the Republic’s forces due to severe injuries.
The guide goes on to mention that Nax would eventually suffer from some health-related issues due to age acceleration, which is a result of him being a clone. Nax’s diagram also confirms that he still physically carries the wounds of his past as shrapnel is still buried in his legs.
Morrison’s history with Star Wars is a long one, with the New Zealand actor having played Jango Fett, as well as many of his genetic clones, in the 2002 prequel film Star Wars: Attack of the Clones. Since then, Morrison also voiced the role of Boba Fett in the 2004 re-release of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, and would also star as Boba in the second season of the Disney+ series The Mandalorian, before getting his own show, The Book of Boba Fett, which premiered in 2021.
Earlier this month, Morrison mentioned that he was actually set to fly to Los Angeles shortly after the convention, and was going to see “what’s happening in the galaxy,” saying that he wants to make sure they don’t put him “on a shelf.”
“There’s a few things happening in L.A.,” Morrison said. “I’m looking to pop into L.A. on the way home to New Zealand, just to sit and have a catch up, and see what’s happening in the galaxy…This is why I was gonna pop in and see what’s going on, and make sure they’re not gonna put me on a shelf.”
