Surprise! John Boyega (aka Finn) shows up at 'Force Awakens' screenings

What's better than scoring a ticket for Star Wars: The Force Awakens on opening weekend?

Having star John Boyega show up at your screening!

The actor, who plays new Star Wars hero Finn and has been quite the ham on the Force Awakens press tour, stopped by a few theaters in New York, because he was "in the area," he said. Boyega thanked movie fans for supporting the film.

His visits are well-documented on social media.

Was his outfit inspired by Harrison Ford characters Han Solo and Indiana Jones?

It looks like fans ignored theaters' no-cell-phone rule when Boyega arrived.
