Boyega Brigade

Happy 31st Birthday 🥳 to Our King! 👑

John Adedayo Bambidele Adegboyega

“Sometimes you just need to be mad. You need to lay down what it is that’s on your mind. Sometimes you don’t have enough time to play the game.” 

— John Boyega born March 17, 1992 in London, England

Happy birthday, John! You’ve been on your grown man ish for a minute now, but 30 isn’t a milestone for nothing. You’ve been inspirational in not just how you’ve used your star power to encourage and help others, but in keeping it real about how all that glitters has not been gold and that at a certain point, you weren’t going to skin and grin just to make others feel comfortable.

Whatever else your life and career holds for you, you’ve earned it, many times over. Here’s to the next 30 years being even better than those that came before them – you’ve earned it.

Long live the King!

According to sources, the project had several other actors ready to go and they too left when Majors bowed out. With Boyega on board, 892 was back like 1-2-3. Actors Michael K Williams, Nicole Beharie, Selenis Leyva and Olivia Washington joined the roll call and production began shooting quietly in Los Angeles this week.
