STAR WARS “Boba Fett”, 007 and INDIANA JONES master stuntman Dickey Beer comes to DCS Sept 16-17
“Boba Fett? Where?!” …right here!
STAR WARS fans have seen him in RETURN OF THE JEDI as a Biker Scout, a Gamorrean Guard, a Stormtrooper, and Jabba’s skiff guard “Barada”, but Dickey Beer also holds the honor of being Bounty Hunter Boba Fett in the film, jumping into action as only he can in those skiff action scenes. He even doubled for Mark Hamill a bit in that scene… heck, he’s half the characters you see in that sequence! Indiana Jones fans may also be interested to know he played one of the key Thuggee guards in INDIANA JONES AND THE TEMPLE OF DOOM, including one in the mine cart chase, and one knocked off the rope bridge in the film’s climactic sequence. Dickey has done stunt work in major movies like A BRIDGE TOO FAR, AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON, IVANHOE, SUPERMAN III, KRULL, NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN, SUPERGIRL, DUNE, A VIEW TO A KILL, TAI-PAN, EMPIRE OF THE SUN, RAMBO III, INDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE, TOTAL RECALL, CLIFFHANGER, ROB ROY, CUTTHROAT ISLAND, DAYLIGHT, STARSHIP TROOPERS, TOMORROW NEVER DIES, TERMINATOR 3, TOMB RAIDER: CRADLE OF LIFE, PINEAPPLE EXPRESS, TRANSFORMERS: DARK OF THE MOON, THE BOURNE LEGACY, SEVEN PSYCHOPATHS, NEED FOR SPEED, and NIGHTCRAWLER… to name but a few. He’s also worked on the upcoming Marvel series INHUMANS, and JURASSIC WORLD: FALLEN KINGDOM. An accomplished stuntman, second unit director, stunt coordinator, and sometimes un-billed actor, we’re so very happy to have Mr. Beer join us at Dallas Comic Show this September 16-17!
