John Boyega - British actor, gained fame, participating in the epic saga "Star Wars". The artist is often called one of the most promising representatives of modern cinema, which is able in the coming years to realize his talent in large-scale Hollywood projects.

John Boyega was born in Peckham, south-east London. Celebrity parents are immigrants who came from Nigeria. My father preaches in a Pentecostal church. The mother takes care of the disabled as a volunteer.

When it came time to go to school, John was enrolled in a public school in Westminster, where the boy participated in school theatre productions and even played small roles several times in the Peckham Children's District Theatre. Young Boyega liked to perform on stage so much that in parallel with general secondary education parents allowed his son to go to the theater school Hakli.

After earning his maturity, John attended South Thames College, where he studied acting and drama. After graduation, he worked at the National Theatre of Great Britain, where a memorable role was the image of Moor Othello in the Shakespearean tragedy of the same name. The artist also sometimes took to the stage of the Peckham Theatre.

John Boyega first appeared on television screens in 2011 while still in college. The actor played a supporting role as Danny Curtis in the television series Becoming human. At the same time came an episode of "The Survivor's Wine" of the famous TV series "Law and Order: London", where the actor got the role of Jamal Clarkson.

In addition, in 2011 Boyega starred in films for the big screen. In the fantastic action movie "Aliens in the Area" Boyega embodied on the screen the leader of the teenage gang Moses. For playing in this film, John won the Black Reel Awards for Best Actor. He also played a supporting role as a drug dealer in the crime drama "The Garbage."

Two years later, the actor starred in the BBC television film "Keith", which tells about the crash of the American whaling ship "Essex", which occurred in 1820.

In 2017, John released the film "Detroit", a drama about the most destructive urban riots in the history of the United States, which took place in the largest city of Michigan in 1967.

A busy work schedule does not allow John to establish a serious relationship, so little is known about his personal life. In the summer of 2017, users were interested in the information of the American media that Boyega consulted with Robert Downey Jr. and Orlando Bloom regarding the relationship with girls.

Some well-known US tabloids reported that the artist from great Kingdom asked his agent to arrange a meeting with Bloom and Downey Jr. to hear their advice.

Fans were surprised by such press reports. The British actor - a hero with a relief torso and sports external data (height 175 cm, weight 87 kg), who managed to overcome the ordeal, coped with the insidious villains of the Galaxy in "Star Wars", was powerless in matters of relations with the opposite sex.

Fans of the artist, discussing on Instagram and the microblogging service "Twitter" the initiative of the idol, advised John to look for a woman who will not be interested in his professional activities and career, but Bloom and Downey Jr. said the opposite: "She should support you and understand, and therefore, she should care about your career."

In some places there were mentions of the relationship of artists, fans seriously assumed that Denzel - John's father. But soon the growing popularity of the Briton put everything in its place. His biography is now widely covered in the media.

Boyega has an active social stance towards black actors. In 2017, he criticized the Game of Thrones project, noting that there was no room for dark-skinned performers in the multi-season saga. On the side of the director of the film stood the author of the series "Song of Ice and Fire" George Martin.

He noticed that the world described in his works is very different from modern realities, and people there live by different laws. But the writer agreed with John and in subsequent novels decided to include heroes of several races.

Judging by the piggy bank of acting roles, John systematically builds his career on the screen. He is in no hurry to exchange for passing roles and chooses to participate only knowingly rating projects.

This happened in 2018, when the artist appeared in the fantastic American action film "Pacific Frontier - 2". Equally winning for him was 2019. The Briton starred in the sequel to the space opera Star Wars: Skywalker. Sunrise," appeared in the favorite image of the hero Finn.
