Star Wars: The Force Awakens star John Boyega
has been an absolute delight during the press
tour for the latest installment in the sci-fi space
saga. From adorably palling around with co-star
Daisy "Peanut" Ridley , to dueling David Beckham
with lightsabers, the 23-year-old British actor has
charmed audiences around the globe, most
before they even see his impressive performance
as Stormtrooper Finn.
But a grueling worldwide promotional tour would
be hard on anyone, which is how Boyega found
himself on a rooftop in Shanghai on Tuesday,
talking down one of the film's other adorable
stars, new droid BB-8.
"BB don't do it man," he joked as the spherical
robot rolled closer to the edge. "I love you man,
come back to me."
The press tour got to BB-8 but so glad I
was able to help ! pic.twitter.com/

It's just the latest in a series of heartwarming
and hilarious stunts from Boyega, who's been
popping up at screenings to surprise and delight
Star Wars fans as the film continues its
worldwide box office dominance.
Boyega even started his own hashtag after
rendering a British fan to near speechlessness.
The girl, whom the actor interrupted as she
watched the trailer before the film, could only
exclaim that "Star Wars Dude" was standing right
in front of her.
Two unsuspecting SW fans watching the
trailer before the movie. Had to interrupt.
His character might not be a Jedi (yet?), but
Boyega certainly knows how to use The Force for
good.
