RUMOR: Finn’s Fate in The Force Awakens
A hot topic of speculation regarding Star Wars: The Force Awakens is who dies and who makes it to the next film. It has been recently confirmed by Kathleen Kennedy that Gwendoline Christie’s Captain Phasma will live on to see another day in Episode VIII to fight for girl power all over the galaxy! After the jump we explore the fate of John Boyega’s Finn and reveal whether he survives the awakening of the Force.
Jacen’s cousin, who goes by the Reddit handle “JJsCat,” just let us know of something peculiar he say in the /r/StarWarsSpecualtion sub-Reddit over the weekend. While the original post is now gone he was able to share with us what it said.
I have seen the film and Finn will die fighting Kylo Ren on Illum.
The Reddit poster has since been banned indicating that this may indeed be true! On the other hand though, it has been confirmed that John Boyega has signed on to reprise his role in all three Star Wars sequel trilogy films. Could this be a misdirection? Could the poster be a misdirector planted by JJ? Who knows so take this with a rather large grain of salt as the “Fake-O-Meter” is currently out of order so we’re unable to determine the viability of this rumor.
Stay tuned fake believers!
