John Boyega teases “something new” with Attack the Block director Joe Cornish

June 27, 2016 by Gary Collinson

Since his big breakthrough last year in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, John Boyega has already added a few high profile roles to his upcoming slate, including The Circle, Pacific Rim: Maelstrom and Kathryn Bigelow’s Detroit riots film.

Well, it seems a reunion with Joe Cornish, writer-director of 2011’s Attack the Block, may also be on the cards, with Boyega tweeting the following:

Cornish has previously revealed that Boyega has been pitching ideas for a sequel to Attack the Block, telling IFC way back in 2011 that:

“He has this image of a bigger alien attack on London, as if the attack we saw in Attack the Block was just the [first] wave and there’s another wave of bigger creatures. And he described to me this image of Moses leading a whole army of hood kids across the Thames, next to the houses of Parliament. He had an image of Moses on a police horse. You know the police in London who have those horses they use in riots…somehow Moses has got onto one of those horses. So he’s on a horse leading this army of South London kids across the river to take on this bigger wave of aliens. So yeah it’s really fun to think of stuff like that and what we could do.”

Boyega is currently reprising the role of Finn for Star Wars: Episode VIII, which is set for release in December 2017.
