I tried to make Adam Driver just happy, you know, because I think when he’s on set as Kylo Ren, the dark side of the force likes to just capture him sometimes and I feel like my hug just balances Adam out. It’s a medical thing that we have sorted out. I get paid to do it. – John Boyega

I am not the actor who’s going to feed you the grace that you want. Sorry, the way I was raised, if anyone comes talking nonsense I’m going to shut them down. You have to fight fire with fire sometimes. So transfer that “grace and dignity” to someone else. I’m not your role model.

There are no black people on Game of Thrones. You don’t see one black person in Lord of the Rings. And though Star Wars had featured a few black characters—Billy Dee Williams as a smuggler, Samuel L. Jackson as a peripheral Jedi—they were less represented in the galaxy than Ewoks. I ain’t paying money to always see one type of person on-screen. Because you see different people from different backgrounds, different cultures, every day. Even if you’re a racist, you have to live with that. We can ruffle up some feathers.
