30 Greatest Star Wars Characters

18. Finn

John Boyega has experienced an incredible rise since breaking onto the scene in 2011's Attack the Block, to the point where he's now one of the most recognisable faces in the industry.

An integral part of that rise was his casting in 2015's The Force Awakens as First Order defector FN-2187. There are plenty of things to love about Finn, including Boyega's own performance, but the absolute best thing is that he gives his all fighting against the one thing he was trained for - war.

Finn has his flaws, but that only adds to the character's appeal. He's still learning, and learns something valuable in both TFA and The Last Jedi, to the point where now, in Episode IX, it's likely he'll be a fully committed member of the Resistance.
