In episode 117 of The Force Geeks: A Star Wars Podcast, Nate, Jake, and DailySuperhero.com Founder & Editor-in-Chief Daniel Wolf break down new interviews with actor John Boyega and director Rian Johnson. We get the truth about the creative differences on what was supposed to play out with Boyega's character of Finn after JJ Abrams and Rian Johnson saw different ways for that story to play out in terms of the character's connection to the Force. Boyega also reveals why he can't bring himself to read Colin Trevorrow's Duel of the Fates script that's been circulating online. And Rian Johnson stands by The Last Jedi as taking a big swing at the story, and provides an update on his intent to move forward with his original trilogy of films.

Plus, the Geeks delve into new information about the production of the upcoming The Acolyte series and when we can expect to see the second season of The Bad Batch. Check it all out in this episode of The Force Geeks podcast!
