As more and more information begins to trickle out regarding the forthcoming film in the Star Wars saga, the stars of Rian Johnson's new movie are beginning to open up about their roles in the production.
John Boyega reprises his role as Finn in Star Wars: The Last Jedi, though he'll have to spend the beginning of the film recovering in a bacta tank after suffering a wound at the hands of Kylo Ren.
But when he gets out, the First Order deserter will embark on an adventure into the heart of the enemy territory he once tried to run from.
"It's gonna be lots of fighting for Finn," Boyega said while speaking with Access Hollywood at the D23 Expo. "A lot of running, a lot of shooting. It's a really dark mission."

Footage from Star Wars: The Last Jedi showed Finn and new character Rose both imprisoned and undercover as First Order officers. Set footage and photographs have also shown the two in an epic chase scene on Canto Bight.
It looks like their journey will take them all across the galaxy and force them into some dangerous situations, and Finn has proven himself pretty handy with a blaster. We're excited to see what other shenanigans the former Stormtrooper will get into when Star Wars: The Last Jedi premieres in theaters December 15.
