Stormtrooper-turned Resistance fighter Finn's found himself in some pretty spicy situations, but John Boyega's just signed up for the hottest one yet.

The Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker star joined host Sean Evans for Hot Ones, the highly popular YouTube show which gets celebrities to eat spicy chicken wings with increasingly more intense hot sauce.

Boyega chats about Harrison Ford taking naps on set, his dad liking Pacific Rim more than Star Wars, and London chicken critic The Chicken Connoisseur — all while trying to get it together with that hot, hot sauce.
