  • He told in an interview with British GQ how he thinks Disney marketed his character as being 'much more important' than he actually was
  • Boyega claimed Disney, which distributes Star Wars, gave more 'nuance' to his white co-stars and suggested they didn't know how to treat him as a black actor
  • The Peckham-born actor suggested his white co-stars ere given more complex characters in comparison to himself or Kelly Marie Tran, of Vietnamese descent
  • Boyega also discussed his experiences with racism after he was cast in Star Wars, explaining how he received death threats via social media

Tell us something we don't know, they played us like a damn fiddle. In the end he was nothing but a traitor, scared ass, not good enough to be a Jedi, non pawg having janitor. fukk Disney and that bytch Kathleen Kennedy. Single handedly destroyed Star Wars for me. Till her contract ends she'll try everything she can to put more feminazi trash into Star Wars.

You would think how they want a progressive think tank I've they would run with the black guy in stars wars in some way. Nope they Strapped the battery to their Mary Sue and rode that horse into the void
As we know, there's nothing wrong with strong women, we love them, plenty of successful IP's with strong women. I was just nasty she had no story, no background, no merit to be where she was and the powers she had. Plain Mary Sue. Meanwhile the black guy that suffered to be where he was couldn't even be a Jedi, much less have something good in that Universe.

The time to chirp up was during pre-production and during filming. John, it's too late. They did Finn dirty we all saw it and you played along. As Deniro told Stallone in Copland. "You blew it!"
He's not allowed to talk like that during that time it's literally in the contract he would have been sued lol.

Talk like what? I'm not saying go public. We can possibly let TFA slide cause it is the first one and he isn't used to blockbuster film making. But after it's finished you see it and you saw the ad campaign you need to demand a better storyline for TLJ.

This pent up frustration must be from that last movie
They really had him go all out to get to Rey to save her from Kylo Ren...only for Rey to force shove him away and go back to fighting Kylo dolo.:skip:
They hint at Finn and Rey being an item....only for Rey choose on Kylo Ren (the VILLAIN) instead. They gave him a runner up prize...only for him to lose her to another breh in that same move too.
Well at least they gave Finn force powers right? Well hes only hinted at being force sensitive. He didn't even get the chance to say it in a 3+ hour movie.The first hint that he was force sensitive was the very first trailer of the trilogy when we thought he would be the main character of the force awakens. Now the trilogy is over and he still has nothing practical.

He really took all that harassment from the racist part of the SW fanbase for it to end like this :skip: I'd be mad too

Man he needs to move on it wasn't even disney that screwed him over blame Rian johnson for writing a horrible sequel in the first place and Kathleen kennedy for shoehorning rey to be the main character... Star wars is kinda dead because the new trilogy sucked donkey balls and its not his fault... We can also blame the white fanbase for freaking out about having a black jedi with a white woman as a love interest in the first place when that first trailer dropped...
:mjlol: he just needs to move on and focus on future projects...

How do you know he didn't do that? At the end of the day the actor has to go along with the script and all of them signed on before the scripts for all 3 movies were out. Mark Hamill didn't like anything about Luke in the sequels but he filmed his parts. He told Rian Johnson and Abrams he didn't like it and they still didn't budge. And he's Star Wars Michael Jordan. Boyega had no pull in swaying the script as a BJ Armstrong
