John Boyega has opened up about one of the most painful experiences of his childhood: the death of his school friend Damilola Taylor, who was fatally stabbed in South London at just 10 years old. The 'Star Wars' actor had last seen Damilola just hours before his death, making his involvement in the documentary particularly personal.
More than two decades later, Boyega has revisited his memories of the tragedy in the new BBC Two documentary 'Damilola: The Untold Story', reflecting on how the killing affected his childhood, his ambitions and the way he viewed violence.
