John Boyega shares an exciting update about Attack the Block 2.
These days, John Boyega is best known for playing Finn in the Star Wars sequels, but there was another sci-fi film that helped jumpstart his career back in 2011. The actor played Moses in Attack the Block, the fan-favorite film from director Joe Cornish that followed a group of troublemaking teens in South London who go up against creatures from space. Last year, the news broke that Cornish and Boyega would be reuniting to continue the story with a sequel.
"This process has been fantastic," Boyega told Collider."The story has actually been presented by myself and Joe Cornish. We've collaborated heavily on making a story that makes sense for Moses and the other characters, and the new characters that will be coming up in the sequel too. And then, also, there's different perspectives in writing it, with Joe having his perspective and me having mine.
"We're quite close. We're gettin' there," Boyega added."Obviously, we don't wanna release no dates to anybody because we wanna take care of the creative process. We have the main spine of the story, but we're still in the lab, just making sure the story is right. Story is everything. But it won't be too long. I've given them the drums to speed up the process.
0comments"I'm thrilled we're officially announcing our return to the world of Attack The Block on the tenth anniversary of the film's release," Cornish added."I can't wait to work alongside John again, bringing audiences an even bigger slice of inner-city alien action."
