I'm trying not to get too excited about any of these rumors since it's hard to tell which ones are even true, but if John Boyega gets cast, I'd be so happy. He was amazing in Attack the Block, and I'm pretty sure that if he was white, he'd be famous by now. Mostly, though, I'm just glad to hear that they apparently do care about racial diversity.

Boyega is the truth, bout time he got some gold off of Attack The Block which was the business.

John Boyega is excellent in Attack the Block. But this, and the casting of Inside Llewyn Davis's Adam Driver, are all casting-of-the-moment. These are the hot young crew, picked for the very fact that they are new. Maybe they will be good, but more then likely they will be crammed together and wasted like his cast of Star Trek talents. From a director's POV, casting is where you do half of the work; the people you pick are the people you trust can solve the challenges you are presenting, not just assembling a Vanity Faire cover.

right lets get this straight, there looking for someone thats young, a dickhead in past movies and a non screen personallity , well im sorry but attack the block was boring and crap, with no one shining at least the muggers( thats always fun, being mugged) but hey they played a good part,( like shite) thats because every other film thev'e been in they play the same bloody part, get some unknowns , you dont need z-list people. but still up to you ., still think its going to suck, just like the last ones.
