John Boyega has won the EE Rising Star award at tonight’s BAFTA Award ceremony in London.

The South London born actor said:

‘First and foremost I want to thank God for this moment.

‘Guys, I haven’t been doing this for a long time, it’s a fluke! I’m gonna share this award with all the young dreamers who are determined, who are hard working, who are quite frankly amazing. This is also for you. Blessings for your path and God bless.’ 

Congratulations John.
