I think it’s great that the Studio supports Actor Boyega’s family reasons for release from his contract. Hopefully, while it was called for, it’s also not too serious nor dire. Yes, I read the article.
He’s a crybaby and complainer and will eventually annoy enough people in Hollyweird where he won’t work again. His so called “family reasons” are most likely some BS reason for him to walkoff set because he probably felt some made up in his head injustice. Good riddance.
The article basically says nothing. And family matter or not, what he did was extremely unprofessional. Next he’ll complain that he’s not being hired enough but who world hire someone known to walk out on commitments
I think he quit, it doesn’t matter why. It’s his decision and hopefully he made the right decision for him and his family. I think both sides not releasing any information is that both of the parties involved are trying to stay professional and they want to keep their secrets private.
Honestly everybody on this planet has a right to secrecy. People need to stop thinking they have a right to know about people’s lives. It’s none of your business! If they dont want to talk about their personal business you need to mind your manners and leave them alone. Give people respect. Stop thinking that you need to know everything!! Expecially when it comes to these stars!! Stop buying the magazines that are intruding in their private life. Everytime you buy a magazine where they are taking unwanted pictures of these celebrities. Your paying people to harass the people your watching on the screen. Would you want people paying other people to follow you around 24 / 7 taking pictures making up lies, taking pictures of your kids!!!??? Of course not! So stop doing it to other people!!
Respect their privacy and leave them alone!!
You REALLY need to read the article first before commenting. It’s likely a family member is dying, and you attribute that to being “woke”? Woke people are the only ones who need to take time off to tend to family members, got it.
The only way you can possibly believe Black Lives Matter is a racist hate group is if you think black lives are of so little importance that claiming they matter is somehow an affront to white lives. Which makes you rather racist.
If we were all truly equal we wouldn’t need to have laws that say we are . . . . It’s funny if a person says “I only support black owned businesses” they are awesome! but if a person says “I only support white owned businesses” they are racist, so yes blm is actually a racist organization
It would have been fantastic if you would have felt the same way about our former President. Once you put yourself into being a political activist then your right to privacy basically is forfeited. He’s an activist and he’s not liking something that either Netflix or Disney has done. He just needs to go and find another line of work.
He is a perpetual victim. Trash actor with no talent.
If he had a family issue , they would’ve paused production until he resolved it. The article also states he works on other projects. I bet those won’t be walked out on because of family issues. His feelings ply got hurt because not enough black catering or something stupid like that.
You have no idea what the family emergency is, so you have no idea how long it will take for it to be resolved or if it can be handled at the current filming location. This is hardly the first time that an actor has had to back out of a role because of family. Productions can’t pause forever while one actor takes care of an emergency.
I don’t think he’s that good an actor. He comes across the same way in every role. Add this to his antics and complaints, and he’s soon going to be like Colin Kaepernick, i.e. no job.
Lol really? They were called racist because he compared him to another random celebrity that’s in a completely different profession. Lol come on man. Can you find the one thing they might have in common?? lol wow
I Could care less about Boyega. Don’t like his acting, don’t want to see him in movie rolls, don’tvote care for his politics. What I get tired Ip of is every time someone e makes a negative comment about any actor of color, the knives come out and suddenly everybody’s racist. Being critical of an actor is not racist, no matter what color he or she or it, or they are. And, being a conservative doesn’t automatically make someone a racist. But I feel sure seeing racists behind every tree is a sure sign of being one!
I agree with most of what you said but can you admit that black lives matter, we are racially profiled and that we experience life slightly different than a white American? Any conservative that admits that is okay in my book. It usually just takes a 20 minute conversation and they realize the things that I’ve experienced could never happen to them. They don’t feel like I’m blaming them and they don’t feel like I’m whining. My suggestion to you is to have a conversation with a black person from your personal life about it because you show a naivety that can only come from a person outside of the culture being pushed further away from it by liberal bullies.
Now hear me out. Most of the comments here critical of him also mentions his race. Something that wouldn’t happen to a white celebrity in this situation. So while racist isn’t the right word for it, it’s definitely racial and not in a good way.
It’s really ironic how in your comment you claim that criticizing a black actor doesn’t make you racist by sarcastically attacking trans people. So yes, it’s very easy to tell you are most like a hateful, racist, bigot. You’re pretty open about it chump.
Maybe they suggested he do something other than pratfalls and shouting, and he fled before he could be found out. Utterly useless, why he is hired, truly amazes….
I think it’s great that the Studio supports Actor Boyega’s family reasons for release from his contract. Hopefully, while it was called for, it’s also not too serious nor dire. Yes, I read the article.
“Family” problems? Probably one of his upstanding relatives got himeself shot by another person of color, or sent to jail. You can take the boy out the jungle, but not the jungle out the boy.
Anyone else about had enough of being held hostage and bombarded constantly by a small portion of our population’s “culture”??
I’m not a Boyega fan myself but your comment is disgusting and so are you. In the future please don’t use the alias of ‘America’ when hiding behind your keyboard writing your racist drivel.
Very revealing images: American socialist realism in action : wooden characters of bros and females as new “noble savages” of the (cultural) left as the replacement for the working class “noble savages” that had been glorified and romanticized in “good” old Soviet movies. History repeats itself ?
Meh. He’s a meh actor who played a meh character in a terrible sequel trilogy. If it wasn’t for his somewhat successful manipulation of BLM’s messaging to try and keep himself in the spotlight he would have been forgotten by now. His name should just be another piece of obscure trivia for the next iteration of Star Wars Trivial Pursuit.
Amazing the number of people who are anxious and willing to play the race card. Just because somebody might not like somebody else who is black, doesn’t automatically mean that person is a racist. In this case, johnboy, is actually a pretty bad actor, it has nothing to do with his color.
Good riddance to another actor who thinks he is bigger then he is. No one cares about your political views! Shut your mouth and act!! Or get the hell off the stage!! Your opinions don’t matter to anyone!!
Disney didn’t take anything seriously other than push their mary sue narrative even further. SW episode 7,8, and 9 SUCKED and the only reason I watched 9 was because Ian McDermott was in it and even then it still sucked, and I watched all three for free!! The most unmemorable star wars movies ever, if I was George Lucas, I would be furious!!! A lifetime of work flushed down the toilet by Disney, but never again!!!
Disney completely ruined star wars and I watched all 3 Mary Sue episodes for free. Only someone who is lobotomized will call this garbage entertainment! Good on Boyega for walking out, although my excuse would have probably been; ‘my hamster is sick, I have to go take care of it!!!’ Disney is trash!
Man oh man the bigots got their panties in an uproar. Once again using name calling, attitude, trying to sound all knowing. How about you try a new tactic people because the stupidity of your posting is just really getting boring. Same old same old from the white bigots. Just keep following your white trail, keep repeating the same crap, spewing the hate. Me, I’ll take being “woke” if it means I’m following the ways of my religion which sure doesn’t teach that anyone who isn’t white is less of a person. Thank God I live in a city where we are diverse, not so damn narrowminded and scared of anyone who is different. Do us a favor, leave, and go back to your European roots. Tired of your stupid hatred. Bunch of bozo bigots in the house!
This is America! Huh and to say that I am racist! People need to look up the word racist before they start throwing/ playing the race card. Check out what happened in Tulsa Oklahoma in 1921 May 31- June 1 when it was called Black Wall Street. No matter what it’s still the same ole story with people back then and now…… the more they try and get ahead the more YOU will keep em back. No matter how much loyalty they show this country USA of yours. We can not come together for nothing and never will.
BLM is A Fake Movement For A Hard Left MARXISM PROUD movement. They Don’t Care About The Pligbt Of Black People Only The MARXIST Black MOVEMENT
They Have Raised MILLIONS And Not ONE Effort To Help Rebuild All The DAMAGE THEY HAVE DONE. Close To A Billion in MINNEAPOLIS. WALMART Burnt Down Wendy’s Burnt Down Owner Was A Black Couple. A Retired BLACK FIREMAN had His Dream Sports Bar Burnt To The Ground. . Fundraiser Raised $$$ For Him SINCE HE LOST EVERYTHING & NO INSURANCE.
If he want’s to work, then he needs to leave his political position at the door. Disney and Netflix needs to cancel his contract due to a breach of contract and simply replace his political activist, snowflake and bum blm butt. They need to take a stand. Tell these political activists, if you want to be an activist do it on your time and not on out dime.
Comments for ‘Star Wars’ Actor Walks Out of Netflix Series Mid-Production
Paul
I’m guessing he got his feelings hurt again . . . . good riddance!
MuTru
And I guess you can’t (or wont’) read the actual story before commenting.
Sal
I guess there weren’t alot of black actors on set and he had a sissy fit again.
Gary
I think it’s great that the Studio supports Actor Boyega’s family reasons for release from his contract. Hopefully, while it was called for, it’s also not too serious nor dire. Yes, I read the article.
Yasmar Notlob
Guess again, try reading the article next time 😉
Lee
Why title it ‘Star Wars’ actor rather than just use his name in the title. He is more than just a Star Wars know actor.
James
He’s a crybaby and complainer and will eventually annoy enough people in Hollyweird where he won’t work again. His so called “family reasons” are most likely some BS reason for him to walkoff set because he probably felt some made up in his head injustice. Good riddance.
taylor Smith
I a great, he is just a triggered baby always looking for something he can spin into an injustice
Lol
You sound like a triggered baby.
Catriona
Why do you have to twist this and suggest it’s something other than the stated reason?
Stop encouraging conspiracies, and alternative theories, to what may be a very difficult time for the actor involved.
Pff
The article basically says nothing. And family matter or not, what he did was extremely unprofessional. Next he’ll complain that he’s not being hired enough but who world hire someone known to walk out on commitments
Jack
It’s not unprofessional to leave a set when a family member is dying. Your priorities are screwed up.
Jrsse
Want be watching anything he does from now on.
sudo
Typical negative framing of black people. If he were white he would be praised for his bravery for prioritizing his family over money.
CLT
I think he quit, it doesn’t matter why. It’s his decision and hopefully he made the right decision for him and his family. I think both sides not releasing any information is that both of the parties involved are trying to stay professional and they want to keep their secrets private.

you REALLY need to read the article first before commenting, it doesn’t say anywhere in there that a family member is dying

He is for the racist hate group black lives matter. I could care less about him now.

Where’s your proof that BLM is a racists group? Don’t worry, I’ll wait for your dumbass answer. ?

BLM can suck my balls!!!

Prima donna acts like a prima donna. News at 7.
Victoria Ann Kahh
Star Wars in name only. Only the first 9 were the real Star Wars. Everything that follow only used the name to sell a poor movie.
Rob
I doubt he had a family emergency.
He was useless in Star Wars. Such a bad actor and self-loving nothing
Igor
He is a perpetual victim. Trash actor with no talent.
If he had a family issue , they would’ve paused production until he resolved it. The article also states he works on other projects. I bet those won’t be walked out on because of family issues. His feelings ply got hurt because not enough black catering or something stupid like that.

Honey your racism is showing

I don’t think he’s that good an actor. He comes across the same way in every role. Add this to his antics and complaints, and he’s soon going to be like Colin Kaepernick, i.e. no job.
Tiredof Cobservatives
Interesting you lump him in with Colin K…..your racism us showing.
Skip
I was waiting for one and here he is! I’m shocked how anyone not knowing the full story could comment at all. LOL
SkippyStinx
You got him skippy! if anybody doesn’t like anything about a black person it must be racism! LOL oh skip!
Comprehension is Important
Lol really? They were called racist because he compared him to another random celebrity that’s in a completely different profession. Lol come on man. Can you find the one thing they might have in common?? lol wow

Huh, why not bring in one of Kathleen Kennedys other “inspirational” characters to replace him with like say “Geode” or “Space Vessel”.

Glad he’s gone. I won’t miss him.

My guess is in a year or two, he be saying it was a toxic environment and bah bah bah.

My wife and I thought his acting was not that great nor character development. In general the last couple of installments of the franchise were bland.

We NEVER WERE TOLD both sides of the story…he walked out…There are plenty of actors who need jobs and would gladly take a job doing Star Wars!

He was a less than par actor anyway. He was lucky Lucus Films threw him a bone. Im sure he can find work rioting with BLM.
Dave
Good riddence
Not everything is racist
