Chicago’s David Pasquesi is in ‘Book of Boba Fett.’ We had some questions, including, what’s up with the head tentacles?

CHICAGO — Sometime within the first 15 minutes or so of the first episode of “The Book of Boba Fett,” the new “Star Wars” series on Disney+, there’s this guy with thick, meaty tentacles streaming out of his head who’s threatening Mr. Fett. But subtly so. He’s all like, Boba, I’m here representing the mayor and we would like you to pay a tribute, and Boba’s like, whoa, whoa, wait, I’m the crime lord, I’m the one on the former throne of Jabba the Hutt, you need to pay me, so this guy goes, OK, have it your way — you’ll be hearing from us.

If passive aggression was a talent, he’d be Yoda.

Instead, when he’s not in Tatooine these days, his name is David Pasquesi, he’s from Lake Bluff
