One of the most entitled person in Hollywood


First off, this guy is a sub-par actor. Fine, I have seen bad actors succeed (Zac Efron and Dwyane Johnson). But he is cast as one of the main character in the new Star Wars Trilogy and instead of being grateful and happy, he slams the production (saying they are reducing his role due to racism and that Disney/Lucasfilms should have coached and gave him counseling on how to due with the "toxic fanbase"). Well how about either ignoring them or staying off social media. Also his other forays into others movies all failed at the box office: Detroit, The Circle, Pacific Rim: Uprising. In June of 2021 he left the the movie Rebel Ridge during filming due to "family reasons," but was later revealed that Boyega had allegedly abandoned the project due to a variety of reasons, including his dissatisfaction with the script and his accommodations. I really hope some one who acts this way does not have a career after this.

I honestly couldn’t agree more. I feel the same way about Marlon Brando’s attitude back in the day. I have heard he was incredibly difficult to work with.

"Difficult" does not necessarily mean talented. Lindsay Lohan was supposedly "difficult" too. She must then be the next Meryl Streep.

They need to can it with the whole "Toxic fandom" crap. If the fans (you know the customers) are that toxic and hurt your feelings that badly because they don't like what you have to offer then stop making these crappy Star Wars movies. There's an old saying "if you can't stand the heat you'd better stay out of the kitchen"
