In an interview with TechCrunch he was asked if was playing ‘Pokemon Go’, to which he replied: "I do have the app. Currently at level 5, CP levels are looking good. I found a Pikachu at Pinewood Studios while filming ‘Star Wars’. I told everybody, ‘I got a Pikachu!’ I was the most popular kid on set for like a day."
Boyega is playing the title as much as he can and has been logging on in Boston where he is filming Kathryn Bigelow’s new movie about the 1967 Detroit riots.
The British hunk was surprised to find so many people playing the game on the streets of the American city.

Boyega is not the only celebrity to get hooked on the game.
Other famous players include Lily Allen, Justin Bieber, Ellen DeGeneres, Demi Lovato, Joe Jonas and Steve Aoki.
