Return of Finn - First Light Order reimagines the familiar universe through the perspective of a hero whose journey was left untapped: a former stormtrooper who rises into leadership, identity, and purpose. This project honors the existing mythology while offering a bold, emotionally compelling arc centered on liberation, legacy, and destiny. It is crafted to elevate John Boyega into a narrative worthy of his depth and charisma—one that audiences have long hoped to see.

Finn is among the first of a new path: the First Light Order. Not Jedi. Not Sith. Something beyond both. A path where power is not suppressed or corrupted, but understood. The power within him no longer frightens him. And the future before him is no longer uncertain.

It is calling him. And he is ready.

Tyrone’s Vanguard is an original, socially charged action-drama centered on a man who refuses to watch another cycle of injustice unfold. After witnessing the impact of racial violence and systemic oppression, Tyrone rallies a diverse group of ordinary citizens to rise, unite, and fight for transformative change. It is emotional, unflinching, and rooted in the same authenticity and conviction that John Boyega has championed in his real-life advocacy.

The character of Tyrone is written with intensity, vulnerability, and heroic leadership—qualities that align powerfully with Mr. Boyega’s presence and artistic vision.

About the Author

Verinia C. Taylor, a Chicago Native, moved to New York, NY in June 2001. At an early age, Verinia demonstrated a love for the performing arts. Her interests included dancing, gymnastics, martial arts, piano/flute lessons, and writing.

Verinia's fascination with writing started with lyrics, poems, and short stories. Writing allowed her to express how she was feeling about certain situations and to escape daily events that were too much for her to deal on a personal level. Music has always been in her life but there was something missing, film.

However, the film that changed her life was "The Wiz". The significance of this movie showed an all African-American cast of people acting, dancing, and singing together. Another film that helped to round her perception was "Jesus Christ Superstar". In this film it showed a cast of people of different nationalities again acting, dancing, and singing together.

It was this desire that motivated her to put all her loves for writing, performing arts, and music together and she decided to go to school for filmmaking. In June 1998, Verinia graduated from Columbia College in Chicago with a BA in Film/Video Production.

With her passion to make her mark on this industry, Verinia C. Taylor is definitely an ambitious Film/Music/Video Writer/Producer Entertainer & Event Planner to watch out for...

"I want to make movies that hit you in the gut, but you feel good afterwards."
