During a recent appearance at Megacon Orlando, the 34-year-old actor confirmed that he's been in touch with Lucasfilm's new boss, Dave Filoni, who officially took over the company from exiting president Kathleen Kennedy (via ScreenRant).
One of the principal actors to debut in Disney's Star Wars Sequel Trilogy, Boyega first appeared in the franchise with 2015's Star Wars: The Force Awakens. In the context of the films, Boyega played former First Order stormtrooper Finn, who defected from the fascist regime to join the freedom-fighting Resistance.
In 2020, the actor made headlines for calling the company out for its lack of diversity within the films, as well as for the diminished he and other non-white actors played in the central narrative of the trilogy.
“You guys knew what to do with Daisy Ridley, you knew what to do with Adam Driver,” the 34-year-old went on to say. “But when it came to Kelly Marie Tran, when it came to John Boyega, you know f**k all. So what do you want me to say? What they want you to say is, ‘I enjoyed being a part of it. It was a great experience…’ Nah, nah, nah. I’ll take that deal when it’s a great experience. They gave all the nuance to Adam Driver, all the nuance to Daisy Ridley. Let’s be honest. Daisy knows this. Adam knows this. Everybody knows. I’m not exposing anything.”
