Pacific Rim Uprising may not have set the world alight, leaving the future of the franchise uncertain, but the sequel does make one thing abundantly clear: John Boyega is a bona fide movie star. Uprising's success signals several things, the main one being the now undeniable power of its leading man. John Boyega was good before, and has been for many years, but now, he?s truly made it. Playing the role of Jake Pentecost, Boyega had a fresh opportunity to remind audiences of his old-school movie-star charm, and he did it with serious aplomb.
