      Didn’t he piss off Disney after the new Star Wars trilogy? I seem to remember him making some comments that pissed some execs off.

          I’ll take your word for it. I’m not very familiar with the situation.

            To summarize the trilogy was a shit show with no real direction and they squandered Finn a legit interesting character that could have been a key character. The fact they made him at all capable in his fight against Kylo deeply implied he would be a Jedi and then they just pissed his storyline away.

      I have been thinking this since I first heard about it. Give the role to someone who got jipped but has the passion.
