Ethan Shanfeld John Boyega became an international breakout star playing Finn in the “Star Wars” sequel trilogy. But the actor, who stars in upcoming films “Breaking” and “The Woman King,” doesn’t have much of an interest in returning to the galactic franchise. “At this point I’m cool off it. I’m good off it,” Boyega said on SiriusXM’s “Tell Me Everything With John Fugelsang.” “I think Finn is at a good confirmation point where you can just enjoy him in other things, the games, the animation. But I feel like ‘[Episode] VII’ to ‘[Episode] IX’ was good for me.” Boyega added: “To be fair, [with] the allies that I’ve found within Joel Taylor and Jamie Foxx, Teyonah Parris, Viola Davis, all these people I’ve been working with… versatility is my path.”

Will Jamie Foxx‘s basketball comedy “All-Star Weekend” ever get released?  READ MORE: ‘Day Shift’ Review: Jamie Foxx’s Vampire Film Packs An Action-Packed Bite But Not Much Else Initially scheduled for a February 16, 2018 release to coincide with that year’s NBA All-Star Game, “All-Star Weekend” has yet to make it into theaters.

Jamie Foxx and Jeremy Piven filmed an NBA comedy in 2016 titled "All-Star Weekend," but the film has not yet appeared in theaters, and many have begun to wonder if it will ever see the light of day. "All-Star Weekend," which also stars Robert Downey Jr., Benicio del Toro, Gerard Butler and Eva Longoria, was supposed to hit theaters in 2018 before being pushed to 2019. However, the premiere, once tied to the NBA All-Star Weekend, never happened.

Where, we wonder, is the nuanced acting from “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”? Bud masquerades as a pool cleaner in California’s San Fernando Valley while actually making a buck as a union vampire hunter.

But the script never remotely rises to the occasion, resulting in a hodge-podgy mess that, at nearly two hours, is also a half-hour too long for its own, or anyone else’s, good.
