Jason Wingreen, the actor who provided the voice of Boba Fett in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, has died at the age of 95.

Jason Wingreen’s son, Ned Wingreen, confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter that his father had died on Christmas Day at his home in Los Angeles. Jason Wingreen was born in Brooklyn on October 9, 1920.

Wingreen admitted that he couldn’t have worked for longer than 10 minutes recording the voice. It wasn’t actually revealed that Wingreen had voiced Boba Fett until 2000, and he said that he never received any residuals for his performance. That's despite the fact that his voice was used on various Boba Fett action figures.
