We would like to reach out to you about the Fall Issue of V Man (Issue 34), on newsstands worldwide, featuring up-and-coming British actor John Boyega.

For V Man #34, John Boyega sits down for an intimate interview with writer David Renshaw on his upcoming role in the highly anticipated Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens and his mentor Robert Downey Jr. Photographed by Paul Wetherell and styled by Anna Trevelyan, Boyega shows his fashion forward side in the likes of Astrid Andersen, Balmain and Kenzo. We would like to share with you key quotes from the article. Boyega expresses his excitement for the process he went through for casting and obtaining the role stating, "There was already contact between me and J.J. [Abrams, the film's director]. He was a big fan of Attack the Block and we were waiting for a project where we could collaborate. They wanted to make sure they got the right person for the job. I learned that I got the part over a nice breakfast in Mayfair. J.J. said, 'John, you're the new star of Star Wars,' and everything froze for a moment." Boyega studied tapes of Harrison Ford's original auditions saying, "He has that knowledge and it's beautiful to watch. He has a great balance between the artistic and technical elements of acting, which is what it's all about. He told me about his career and his house. I realized that I probably couldn't relate to him about finances because he's on another level." On his mentor Robert Downey Jr, "I'm being mentored by Robert Downey Jr. at the moment. "He's helped me prepare for how my life is going to change and that has been inspiring. I'm talking to someone who understands the power of choices, both positive and negative."

電影《Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens》首條預告推出至今，由John Boyega演出的Finn，因膚色問題（首位黑人Stormtrooper）及擔當主角（首次由黑人擔當星戰電影主角）而一直備受爭議，有人更在社交平台發起活動要因此而擺看電影，導演J.J.Abrams在接受節目《Howard Stern Show》訪問時批評膚色歧視是全無需要。

「我認為人們是投訴為何Stormtrooper是一個黑人。」J.J. 在節目部中大讚John Boyega在電影演出這個問題角色有著非凡的表現。

備：在經典三部曲中，能看到樣子的Stormtrooper只有兩位主角：Han Solo和Luke
