In their previous report, BadAssDigest said that Boyega would play “someone trying to change his path in life,” but kept things purposely vague. According to the new report, John Boyega will play [Spoiler]a stormtrooper deserter.[/Spoiler]
The report goes on to say that they have no further details about what that means for the current state of the Star Wars universe, but also says that Boyega’s character “is the single most confirmed piece of news I’ve ever written about in terms of sheer volume of independent sources who agree.”
So while this is still a rumor, it seems like a pretty well confirmed rumor.
Star Wars Episode VII comes to theaters December 18, 2015.
