John Boyega has been showing everyone why he should have had a more prominent role in Disney's Star Wars films with his recent actions in the Black Lives Matter rallies. The actor is currently seen as a huge inspiration to others, not caring about how others view him and fighting for what is right. This is still a relevant issue that's currently being fought over but Boyega wants fans to continue being resilient, weirdly inspiring others with a Naruto post.
Believe it! Or should I say Dattebayo?
On Instagram, Boyega wrote "If you don't like the hand that fate's dealt with you, fight for a new one," which is a quote from Naruto Uzumaki himself. The blonde-haired ninja knows all about that, fighting through all the hate he received from having the Jinjuriki put inside him and eventually becoming Konoha's Hokage. If he can change his fate, who's to say that you can't?
Hollywood has reacted rather positively to Boyega's Black Lives Matter protests, with directors like J.J. Abrams and Jordan Peele now wanting to work with him more than ever. The actor is really showing the kind of resilience that your favorite fictional characters embody, whether they be from The Resistance in Star Wars or The Hidden Leaf Village in Naruto.
We don't currently know what's next for John Boyega but we're sure that sky's the limit when it comes to what he'll want to do once filming in Hollywood starts up again. He's pretty much done with Star Wars right now so it will be interesting to see if Boyega does more franchise films or ends up starring in more self-contained stories.
