It is the bounty hunter's equivalent of 's license to kill, and Bossk never hesitated in using it. The Trandoshan displayed his hand-to-hand combat effectiveness several times, including a gladiatorial fight at the Monad Outpost on Lothal.
There, he beat two opponents into submission at the same time, demonstrating his fighting prowess for all to see. The name Alan Harris might not seem special upon first glance, but he was a vital cog in the original Star Wars trilogy, playing multiple roles as different characters across all three films.
If that weren't enough, his body was used as the mold for Han Solo frozen in carbonite, and he stood in for Terence Stamp in The Phantom Menace. Quite a track record! There's no reason to think Bossk won't show up in future episodes of The Mandalorian , especially given the fact that Din Djarin has already squared off against two Trandoshans, already.
With talk of Boba Fett showing up in Season 2, it only stands to reason that his old mentor Bossk would make an appearance, as well.
It would be interesting to see how the two play off of each other in a post-Imperial galaxy.

Bossk is a lethal bounty hunter who has accomplished some staggering feats, but in starting off the battle with a huge advantage and ending it tied to a rock, he confirms that Boba Fett is Star Wars' go-to hunter for a reason.
Despite his victory, Boba Fett is still clearly concerned about the bounty on his head, leaving Bossk alive to warn his other pursuers not to get in his way when Star Wars: War of the Bounty Hunters 2 hits physical and digital retailers July Kevin Erdmann is one of Screen Rant's staff writers.
While Kevin is a huge Marvel fan, he also loves Batman because he's Batman and is a firm believer that Han shot first. Disney also shares a big part of his fan patronage. Kevin lives in Oregon with his wonderful wife and sinister cat who is no doubt currently plotting his demise. The Guild was everything to the brutal hunter, and he refused to watch his father's senile claws destroy what was rightfully his. After enacting a brutally efficient plot to overthrow Cradossk and set himself up as leader, Bossk went on a bounty with Boba Fett, IGB , Zuckuss , and D'harhan where he narrowly avoided an assassination attempt by Zuckuss who was working with Cradossk by bribing the other hunter to his side.
Bossk returned, to the surprise of his father, and violently murdered him using his father's own weapon, an ornamental dagger, and devoured him as the Guild complex erupted into a massive firefight. After this, however, the Guild had been split in half. Bossk was the leader of the Guild Reform Committee, which consisted mostly of younger hunters, and was fixed on destroying the True Guild, which he saw as old, lazy hunters. Against his better judgment, Bossk again worked with Boba Fett to track down the rogue stormtrooper Trhin Voss'on't.
After nearly dying, Bossk managed to help Fett capture the defect Imperial only to double-cross the other hunter. Bossk reasoned that Voss'on't's bounty could help give the Committee the upper hand in the Bounty Hunter Wars, and would do it much better if he collected all of it.
After disabling Slave I ' s internal defense systems, Bossk captured Fett on his own ship. Luckily for him, Fett had foreseen this complication and had already hired Zuckuss to back him up after gaining the bounty.
Bossk was subdued, and then Zuckuss was also double-crossed. Boba Fett forced the pair into the only escape pod, and then blasted both hunters out of Slave I. Angrily, Bossk threw a miniature thermal detonator into Fett's ship just before he was launched, which gave the pod enough time to escape. Jabba did not care until he discovered that this person was friends with Han Solo.
Jabba was angry at Solo since he had not paid off the shipment that he lost after running into an Imperial patrol. When Jabba realized this, he sent Bossk to capture Skywalker and Bossk took the job, having a grudge against Solo because of his friend Chewbacca. Since Trandoshans were enemies of Wookiees, Bossk was happy to capture Skywalker.
Later, Skywalker raced against a man he knew named Jaxson. Bossk used a Pulse Generator to disable the skyhoppers electrical systems causing Skywalker and Jaxson's skyhoppers crash and explode. While they were both unconscious, Bossk bound them together and dragged them to the Jundland Wastes.
When Skywalker woke up, he asked why Bossk had done this. Bossk told him, though he didn't tell he did it for Jabba. Jaxson, who was thought unconscious, actually was awake, and later asked Skywalker who Solo was. Skywalker managed to escape by using his lightsaber to unbind Jaxson and himself. Then during the fight he cut off one of Bossk's arms and one of his legs. Though Skywalker thought that Bossk wouldn't come after him again, Bossk, being a reptile, regrew his arm and leg and went after Skywalker again.
He later went in a cantina in Mos Eisley where Skywalker and his friends had gone for a reunion. Once there, Bossk tried to kill Skywalker and his friends. In the process, he killed some patrons in the cantina. Nevertheless, Skywalker managed to best him. Bossk surrendered and limped out of the cantina. Later, after Jabba's henchman had caught Bossk trying to get off Tatooine, he had to tell of his failure.
Jabba had Bossk put in his rancor pit, but Bossk survived. Following the battle of Talus , Bossk became involved in capturing Emperor's Most Wanted , individuals from a list of high-paid bounties on critical Rebel Alliance leaders. Bossk delivered his captive to Tatooine and escorted him to an Imperial prison facility near Dee'ja Peak on Naboo. He later escorted the captives being held there to an Imperial prison facility near Bestine on Tatooine.
Back at the Bestine spaceport , Bossk was loading a repulsorlift stacked with cargo onto the Hound's Tooth , when he was approached by a Rebel agent pretending to be working for Borvo the Hutt. The agent tried to learn the location of the facility where Rebel prisoners were held, but Bossk was unwilling to share such information with whom he assumed to be Hutt's lackeys and, summoning some of the thugs who worked for him, tried to teach the messenger "a lesson".
However, the Rebel did not come unprepared and, with a help of his backup, was able to defeat the thugs and subdue Bossk. The Trandoshan was asked about the location of the facility again. Bossk taunted the Rebels, but since he was already paid, he was losing nothing when he described the location.
He was certain that the Rebel could not even get close to facility, but to prevent him from alerting the Imperials of the upcoming raid, he was temporarily held in Mos Eisley for a few hours of questioning. While taking a small break in the Mos Eisley cantina , he met a spacer , whom he thought could help him with some of his work for Jabba.
Bossk's first task for the spacer was to find out which smuggler in Jabba's employ tipped Lady Valarian off on a spice shipment he was running.
Bossk instructed the spacer to kill nearby Valarian supporters until they found the information they needed. The spacer eventually discovered the identity of Jabba's traitor and executed him.
The spacer returned to Bossk for a 10, credit reward. Bossk ran into the spacer several days later in the Mos Eisley cantina and offered them another assignment.
Jabba and the mayor of Mos Eisley had a disagreement, and Jabba wanted revenge. He planned to trick the Tusken Raiders into attacking Mos Eisley, but one of them had learned of this plan, and was on his way to his people to warn them of the trickery. Bossk instructed the spacer to go speak to one of his contacts in Mos Espa , a Jawa , to learn where the Tusken was.
The Jawa gave the spacer for the Tusken's last known location. The spacer traveled out to the sand wastes, found the Tusken, and killed him. Bossk rewarded the spacer for a job well done with 20, credits.
Bossk met the spacer a third time, and gave them yet another task to complete. This time, Jabba had made a bet with a fellow Hutt. The bet was to see who could acquire the greatest trophy in the least amount of time.
Jabba could think of only one thing to come out on top - the shroud of a Nightsister. The spacer traveled to Dathomir , and after much searching, and an arduous battle with one of the Force-sensitive witches , was able to secure a shroud for Jabba.
The spacer returned it to Bossk, but Jabba declared it not good enough, that he needed the shroud of a Nightsister elder. The spacer returned to Dathomir and somehow retrieved the elder shroud and gave it to one of Jabba's agents in Wayfar, who rewarded the spacer with 50, credits and a specially modified carbine rifle.
Bossk met with the spacer a fourth and final time in Chalmun's Cantina. Jabba had become worried about the activities of the Black Sun criminal syndicate, and paid an informant to spy on them. Sadly, the informant was discovered. Jabba now needed someone to test the Black Sun's strength.
