John Boyega got into some trouble with Stormtroopers at Disneyland

Traitors to the First Order should probably steer clear of Disney parks and resorts.

Most Star Wars fans know John Boyega as Finn, hero of the Resistance. But among First Order Stormtroopers, he'll always be the traitorous FN-2187.

Boyega got a sharp reminder of his status among the rank-and-file of the First Order during a recent visit to Disneyland. The actor was just wandering around, minding his own business, when he was accosted -- and eventually arrested! -- by the white-armored troops.

The clip first surfaced in one of Boyega's Instagram Stories, and was just so perfect that it was quickly captured and reposted in a more shareable format.

Boyega clearly approved.

Does anyone in Hollywood love their fame more than Boyega loves his fame? His obvious joy over being a key player in the Star Wars universe is so wholesome and pure.
