Star Wars star John Boyega was jokingly arrested by Stormtroopers during a trip to Disneyland Paris.

Star Wars: Episode IX star John Boyega's trip to Disneyland Paris featured a special confrontation with a pair of Stormtroopers.

The video, which was posted to Boyega's Instagram, shows the actor being arrested by two Stormtroopers. "They're arresting me right now," jokes Boyega. The video ends with one of the Stormtroopers saying, "The fugitive is in custody."

In the films, Boyega plays FN-2187/Finn, a former First Order Stormtrooper turned ally of the Resistance. The character has had a number of high-profile confrontations with the First Order since his desertion, so it's natural he's viewed as a wanted man.

Although little is known at this time about the plot to the upcoming sequel to The Last Jedi, Boyega recently revealed that there will be a time jump of one year. Episode IX will be helmed by J.J. Abrams, who started the new trilogy with 2015's The Force Awakens.

Directed and co-written by J.J. Abrams, Star Wars: Episode IX stars Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Lupita Nyongâ€™o, Domhnall Gleeson, Kelly Marie Tran, Joonas Suotamo, Billie Lourd, Keri Russell, Matt Smith, Anthony Daniels, Mark Hamill, Billy Dee Williams and Carrie Fisher, with Naomi Ackie and Richard E. Grant. The film is scheduled to open on Dec. 20, 2019.
