The actor -- who starred in three 'Star Wars' films -- shared why he's found 'peace' with the situation (via toofab)

During the interview, Fugelsang brought up Ingram, noting that it seems that Disney"learned along the way to have a plan for these sort of things to happen," but there wasn't a"game plan" back when Boyega was attacked online.

Although he didn't receive the same support as Ingram, the"Small Axe" star said he doesn't"feel bitter at all." He added,"And for me to see other people accepted, and then at the same time to see that the studios now are like, 'Okay, cool. This is not an elephant-in-the-room conversation. We need to support our Black client.' It’s fantastic."

When asked if he'd ever reprise the role in the future, Boyega said,"At this point, I'm cool off it. I'm good off it. I think, to be fair, what 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."
