John Boyega is not done with science fiction.
Boyega played Finn in the Star Wars sequel trilogy, arguably one of the biggest science fiction franchises in the world. However, there’s another big science fiction franchise that Boyega has his eye on.
“I remember years ago I wanted to just do a little - one episode of Doctor Who because David Tennent is my favorite Doctor. So, if I could go across dimensions and stuff like that, if I was to come in a do a little cameo, I used to say that would be fun,” Boyega says during a press session at Dragon Con.
BBC Studios Productions, if you’re reading this, make it happen. In fact, do more than a cameo. Make Boyega a companion…or even the Doctor himself. As Boyega said, it would be fun.
