Thundercat makes his acting debut in The Book of Boba Fett – the new Star Wars series on Disney+. He appears in “Chapter 4 – The Gathering Storm” as a body-modification artist known simply as The Modifier.. It’s his first on-screen acting role after voicing “Grune The Destroyer” (and penning a song) in Cartoon Network’s Thundercats Roar animated series.

“Thank you, John, Dave, Rob and the family at Disney and Star Wars for giving me a chance, I have loved Star Wars my whole life,” Thundercat shares. “I am happy to be part of its legacy”
