The War Awakens John Boyega in "Pacific Rim Uprising"

John Boyega, the breakout star of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, plays the lead role of Jake, wayward son of the legendary war hero Stacker Pentecost (Idris Elba), in Universal Pictures' new epic action-adventure Pacific Rim Uprising.

At the time I was involved in acting on a small scale in drama clubs, and in 2013 I saw a print ad while I was on the bus—Idris Elba as Stacker in an all-black Jaeger suit. The image, and what it represented, immediately struck me and motivated me.”

Produced by Affirm Films, which made Christian Films like Fireproof and Risen, the film shows the fiinal days of St. Paul who has been travelling far and wide to build Christian communities and preach the gospel. Jim Caviezel who played Jesus Christ in Passion of the Christ is St. Luke here which somehow still has his impression of the Messiah without the Aramaic language.
