According to John Boyega, Carrie Fisher encouraged people to be "authentic".

The actor plays alongside Fisher in 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' (2015). Now he promised that the sequel will be a tribute to the late actress. The star told the Variety magazine: "Carrie Fisher means freedom. She worked on people to be authentic and say whatever they want, whatever they want. I miss their energy. You could hear Carrie everywhere Fisher, as she says she has no job, made everyone laugh. "

The London native slips back into the role of Finn in 'Star Wars: The Last Jedi', which will be released in cinemas later this year. Boyega's portrayal in the first part earned him the status of a coveted actor in Hollywood. However, he insists that this experience did not affect his life: "A film cannot change your whole life, so you can no longer walk the streets. I go to the supermarket. I go shopping. I go with my friends to the park. I watch films. A few people recognize me, but most of them I don't notice. "

His casting in the 'Star Wars' films was initially not very popular, as some fans questioned whether a black actor was suitable for the role: "When I came into the world of 'Star Wars', I also became the Exposed to ignorance that still exists all over the world. When I starred in Star Wars, there was a little discussion about racism that got pretty negative when the film came out. "
