Star Wars: John Boyega Teases Complex The Last Jedi Dialogue

At Lucasfilm’s Star Wars panel during the 2015 San Diego Comic-Con, series staples Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, and Harrison Ford were asked about their favorite aspects in their return to the franchise. Hamill responded that he was happy he wasn’t forced to say lines like “But I was going into Tosche Station to pick up some power converters.”

We thought that maybe Star Wars would be forgoing the pseudo-science speak in the new episodes, but little did we know that Luke simply didn’t speak at all in the film. There was plenty of jargon to go around.

And that’s going to continue in Star Wars: The Last Jedi, if a recent Instagram post from actor John Boyega is to be believed.

Boyega portrays a member of the new trinity in the latest trilogy, the new character Finn—alongside Daisy Ridley’s Rey and Oscar Isaac’s Poe Dameron.

Boyega recently posted a piece of art gifted to him from The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson.

The post seems to hint at dialogue in the new film, though what it means could be anyone’s guess at this point.


In the piece of art, it shows a depiction of Boyega’s depiction of Finn with his hands on his face, and the term “BIO-HEXACRYPT” fashioned like a Star Wars logo.

Johnson followed up Boyega’s post with a comment to the photo that simply says “Not all heroes wear capes.”

It’s all inside baseball at this point, but we’re sure we’ll get it when the film releases this December. At this point, it seems to indicate that the complicated fake jargon that has been a staple of every film is not going away, and that this particular term had Boyega reeling.
