He's only a big name in hollywood because of it but he's also been cursed by it, so I understand the love/hate relationship. But at the end of the day he'd be nobody without Finn, so I wouldn't shoot down the possibilities to return, even if it's as a VA or something in the future

star wars ruined his career imo
He got a higher profile but his character was such a joke he became sort of type cast on some inside joke type ish
Now the same white Hollywood power brokers that gave him the chance don't think he's cool or manly enough for leading man roles

Had that man's character as an Imperial janitor in the comics. I'd be good off that too.
Imagine if they actually written his character well he could have became Jedi Master Finn: “The Cleaner” of the Galaxy

He's more of a nobody because of it. He was popular prior to it with attack the block. He just needs to be more careful in choosing roles. Being tight casted in feminist movies will be the death of his career or any black male.

Yep...

Understandable..

If anything doing Star Wars hurt him... especially with what they did to his character. Hell lotta actors who ain't already established don't really benefit from doing star wars.
