Quote examples
John Boyega
British Actor
Finn doesn't have as much respect for Han's legacy as everybody else does, and Han finds that a bit charming. They team up and go on a mission together. The banter is very choppy, and the dialogue is pretty funny. Chewie enjoys the banter and the friction between the two, but they definitely have each other's backs.

Quote examples
John Boyega
British Actor
Finn is just a stormtrooper, and stormtroopers are no longer clones, so they are bred from birth to fight. He's not too sure about it, so he escapes and meets Rey and Poe and BB8, and their stories kind of mesh together, and they go on a major adventure.

Quote examples
John Boyega
British Actor
It's always great to play a character that goes against the grain. Finn defies what people think when they think of stormtroopers.
