- The actor, who plays Finn, a reformed stormtrooper was trying to make it to the film's premiere in Hollywood
- While he flies in Star Wars: The Last Jedi, he wasn't able to fly himself out of Atl
- More than 800 flights were cancelled yesterday as the southern US was hit with a snow storm, stranding passengers- but it appears Boyega may make it after all
Star Wars: The Last Jedi star, John Boyega, prompted a flurry of concern after he tweeted he was stranded in a snowstorm at an Atlanta airport and wasn't sure he was going to make it to the film's premiere in Hollywood tonight.
Boyega, 25, plays Finn, a reformed stormtrooper who escapes to join the Resistance, had a flight out, but the force was not with him, as mother nature dropped six inches of snow in the area, and he tweeted his angst over being stranded.
'Trying to get back for the LA premiere! I actually NEED a pilot !!!' the actor ironically tweeted as he himself flies in promo shots for the flick.
If he only had a pilot. John Boyega hilariously chronicled his struggles getting a flight out of Atlanta to the Star Wars: The Last Jedi premiere in Hollywood tonight (pictured in the film)
Oh the irony. While he plays an excellent pilot in The Last Jedi, it appears his 'license' doesn't translate in real life
I guess, while you're waiting... Boyega tweets he my as well start a family since he's going to be stuck with fellow stranded passengers for awhile
Director Rian Johnson tweeted to Boyega his concerns over potentially missing the big night: 'Hahahaha oh my god GET HERE JOHN!'
Boyega was certainly concerned but was taking the situation in stride, as he cracked on Twitter that since no one was leaving the airport, he may as well 'start a family now.'
The snow storm clobbered the Southern United states, snarling travelers with powder in places like Atlanta, which rarely sees any significant accumulations and is ill-prepared to cope with such weather.
More than 800 flights were canceled Friday, as the snow continued to fall.
However, the good guy should always win. It's unclear if Boyega had to fight off a fellow stormtrooper to make it happen, but Deadline reports that he was able to find a flight out of the storm.
The good guy gets a win- this time. Boyega was able to secure a flight out of Atlanta according to a report
He'll appreciate the change in weather- he'll be flying out of snowy Atlanta to sunny 71 degree LA night
He is expected to make it to the Hollywood premiere tonight at the Shrine Auditorium.
The weather out in sunny Los Angeles will be around 71 degrees.
This morning, Boyega tweeted it was so cold his 'thighs won't even generate the heat anymore.'
Assuming he makes it out there- he will surely appreciate the weather, and the premiere this evening.
