Lately, Twitter has become a hot spot for some fun content from the cast of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker) is constantly sharing fun stories and revealing information about the beloved trilogy, Joonas Suotamo (Chewbacca) is always championing his castmates, and John Boyega (Finn) hasn't been pulling any punches when it comes to interacting with fans online. Recently, Boyega commented on one of Suotamo's posts and the exchange was pretty hilarious. The Chewbacca actor shared a throwback of himself with Daisy Ridley (Rey) and Boyega called him out for stealing some of his goodies.

"A fun behind-the-scenes moment with Daisy and I while filming #TheRiseOfSkywalker. Wookiees appreciate a friend that fixes their hair! Thanks to the fans who tagged me in the pic, I'm not sure where it was originally posted, but it's a moment I remember like it was yesterday," Suotamo wrote.

"You still got my sweets in that pouch? Lol this is not how smuggling works," Boyega replied.

The awards ended up going to Joker (Hildur Guðnadóttir), Ford v Ferrari (Donald Sylvester), and 1917 (Guillaume Rocheron, Greg Butler, and Dominic Tuohy).

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker stars a returning Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Lupita Nyong'o, Domhnall Gleeson, Kelly Marie Tran, Joonas Suotamo, Billie Lourd, and Greg Grunberg. New cast members include Naomi Ackie, Richard E. Grant, Keri Russell, and Dominic Monaghan, and the returning veteran actors are Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, Billy Dee Williams, and Ian McDiarmid as the Emperor. According to Abrams, Leia is featured in the film using unreleased footage of Carrie Fisher from Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

In addition to Star Wars, it was recently revealed that Boyega will soon be starring in Netflix's Rebel Ridge, a new thriller from Green Room director Jeremy Saulnier.
