Dengar only appears very briefly in The Empire Strikes Back, but along with Bobba Fett and the rest of the motley crew of Bounty Hunters shown in the scene with Darth Vader, he has gone on to become a fan favorite. Simon Pegg, a massive Star Wars fan, will now provide the voice for the unusual looking character in the Clone Wars animated series..

Says Pegg of Dengar to EW..
"Dengar is one of the elite. If you're on Darth Vader's bounty hunter speed dial you are the best in the galaxy. It was a total honor to play this mysterious, hard man from my favorite Star Wars movie, The Empire Strikes Back."
