Additionally, he plays a minor role as an Imperial officer in ''The Empire Strikes Back'', his only non-masked appearance in the original ''Star Wars'' films. Bulloch returned as Boba Fett for the fan film mocumentary: ''Return of the Ewok''. He also has minor roles in three James Bond films, twice playing Smithers, an assistant to Q.
