John Boyega reveals Finn’s new blaster for ‘The Last Jedi’

Just when you thought your fantasy weapon wishlist was long enough!

John Boyega has revealed the new blaster he'll be using as Finn in the upcoming sequel, 'Star Wars: Episode VIII- The Last Jedi'.

One of the biggest speculations from the upcoming release of 'Star Wars: Episode VIII- The Last Jedi' is the role Finn will play. If you recall, [SPOILERS!] rogue Stormtrooper, FN-2187 aka Finn, leaves behind his life as a pawn to the First Order and joins Rey in her battle against Kylo Ren, only to be tragically wounded in battle with the villain himself.

The only footage of Finn in the most recent trailer shows him still lying in some kind of stasis pod, healing slowly. This led many to believe that he may not have as big a role in this film as he did previously. Thankfully, John Boyega has revealed that he will be sattling up and fighting alongside the Rebellion at some point in the movie. The actor recently took to Instagram to post a shot of the personal firearm he'll be using as Finn:
