In addition, one of the announcement teasers for The Mandalorian described Jango and his son Boba as Mandalorians, leaving their actual status as Mandalorians ambiguous. The discrepancy was resolved in "Chapter 14: The Tragedy" of The Mandalorian Season Two, which revealed that Fett was a Mandalorian foundling.
"Boba Fett is a clone, according to Attack of the Clones, and by asking George Lucas, he would say Boba Fett is not Mandalorian, not born on Mandalore," said director Dave Filoni to Entertainment Weekly. "He's more of a person indoctrinated into it, into the way of life, and gets a hold of the armor."
Summary. Jango Fett, a Mandalorian bounty hunter, was the ideal model for the clone troopers due to his secrecy and skills. Count Dooku held a contest to choose Jango Fett as the genetic template due to his effectiveness and cooperation.
Jango hated the Jedi for what they took from him. Perhaps he even hated him for having a home to return to after helping the New Mandalorians take his. Whatever the reason, he hated the Jedi enough to become essential to Palpatine's elaborate plans of genocide.
It is known that Jango left Mandalore at some point to pursue a career in bounty hunting. In his absence, a pacifist leader named Almec rose in the ranks to become the prime minister of the planet for many years.

Why did Jango Fett lose so easily?
While Jango Fett was a skilled fighter, his abandonment of "The Way" and his reliance on gadgets and tricks instead of discipline may have contributed to his swift defeat by Mace Windu.
In addition, one of the announcement teasers for The Mandalorian described Jango and his son Boba as Mandalorians, leaving their actual status as Mandalorians ambiguous. The discrepancy was resolved in "Chapter 14: The Tragedy" of The Mandalorian Season Two, which revealed that Fett was a Mandalorian foundling.
Bo-Katan dismisses Boba as a pretender and a disgrace to his armor, refusing to acknowledge Jango Fett as the father of Boba and disparaging him for being a clone.
In his time as a Bounty Hunter, Jango is only known to have killed one Jedi, Coleman Trebor. However, he did kill six Jedi with his bare hands during the Battle of Galidraan, when he was still a soldier.
With his customized Mandalorian armor, deadly weaponry, Boba Fett was once regarded as one of the most fearsome and capable bounty hunters in the galaxy. An unaltered genetic clone of his father, bounty hunter Jango Fett, Boba learned combat and martial skills from a young age.
He is primarily motivated by profit and usually only loyal to the highest bidder. Fett always focuses on maintaining peak condition with his body, mind, and equipment.
Fett originally bore his armor as a Mandalorian warrior during the Mandalorian Civil Wars, the conflict during which he was given the armor in the first place. During his storied career as a bounty hunter, Jango used his armor to great effect, collecting bounties for various clients.
In-universe, Fett's long-term injures from his time in the sarlacc may partially explain his newfound attitude in both The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett. Fett's embarrassing defeat may have rendered him humbler and his newfound weakness likely contributed to his far less solitary behavior.
Though Mandalorians were usually distinctly human, one did not need to be human to become one. Instead, what one needed to do was follow the Mandalorian Creed. Thus, some individuals, non-humans included, could be adopted into the Mandalorian creed as foundlings, children raised to become Mandalorian warriors.
Even though he has fought Jedi on countless occasions, he assumed his tricks would be enough to take him down. Although Jango also. got overwhelmed when he was hit by the wreak, which wrought him around and broke his jetpack, giving him no choice but to fight. and inevitably leading to his demise.
In terms of combat skills, Jango has the upper hand. He has undergone rigorous training under bounty hunters like Hondo Ohnaka, Duros Cad Bane, Aurra Sing, and Zam Wesell. Boba may seem cooler in fighting, but his father is more skillful than him in hand-to-hand combat.
Katee Sackhoff is 42 years old currently, but the assumption has been Bo-Katan is closer to her sister Satine's age. Because of Satine's romance with Obi-Wan Kenobi, that would put Bo-Katan closer to her sixties in the series. (Duchess of Darksaber Light on Twitter goes into great detail on the clues.)
Although he wears Mandalorian armor and claims that he was born on a planet under Mandalorian rule, actual Mandalorian officials insist that he is not a Mandalorian and acquired his armor through theft or scavenging. Jango Fett's actual early life, though, remains mostly unknown.
In a Mandalorian's eye, clones were slaves of the Jedi who executed their missions by compulsion rather than honor or incentive. Boba Fett, in contrast, may have seen the Mandalorians as haughty and elitist. He thought they saw themselves as apex predators who were humbled by the Jedi.
Is Grogu Yoda? According to the events of "The Mandalorian" so far, Grogu and Yoda are not the same character. They are simply from the same species. The name of this species has never been revealed since "Star Wars" creator George Lucas wanted to give Yoda a sense of mystery.
In the Star Wars prequels, Jango removes his helmet more or less whenever he's not fighting, happy for Obi-Wan, the people of Kamino, Count Dooku and others to see his (or, indeed, Temuera Morrison's) face.
Jango in 2002 and Boba since 2021 are played by the exact same person, Temeura Morrison, so other than age they look identical. (Boba's aged, scarred appearance Is explained in-universe as damage from his Sarlacc experience.)
