Daniel Logan was born June 6th, 1987 in Auckland. His first experience with acting came when he was 10 years old. Young rugby players were being auditioned for a television commercial, but Daniel stood out and got the part. He was soon noticed by casting agents, and filmed several more commercials, before landing a recurring role on the long-running New Zealand drama 'Shortland Street'. Coincidently, the show was also a launching pad for Temuera Morrison, who worked along side Daniel Logan on 'Attack of the Clones'. Daniel also appeared in an episode of locally-filmed series 'Hercules: The Legendary Journeys'.

In addition to television roles, Daniel has also provided voice-work for two local animated series: 'Tamota' and 'Takapu'. He acted the lead role in the short film 'Falling Sparrows', and more recently starred in 'The Legend of Johnny Lingo'. After auditioning along with thousands of others, 13 year old Daniel won the role to bring the young Boba Fett to the screen...for the young Star Wars fan, keeping the role a secret was a hard task!

Daniel worked with two fellow New Zealanders on 'Attack of the Clones' � his 'father', Jango Fett, played by Temuera Morrison, and the Kaminoan Taun We, played by Rena Owen. Even though Rena Owen doesn�t appear on film in Episode 2, she was there on set to help Daniel and the other actors with dialogue timing and eye-lines. But Daniel spent most of his screen-time with Temuera, and enjoyed working with the famous New Zealander.

Filming the part of young Boba Fett isn�t just one role � it�s hundreds. Playing the young clone of Jango Fett, Daniel Logan also filmed the roles of all the young clone boys. After approximately eighty different takes in a bluescreen environment, the task became a bit tiresome, but Daniel still enjoyed being a part of it all, and is honored to have a place in Star Wars history.

Daniel now lives in California, but is a regular at conventions all over the world. He enjoys meeting the fans, and being a part of the Star Wars community.
