I don't think they have a clue what to do with him. He isn't a great character, he doesn't feel essential to the plot. His big moment came against another character, Phasma, that has been worthless as well and was saddled with another character of questionable value during a mission that should have been cut from the movie.
shareBased on what Boyega says, they (or at least he) imagine an end game relationship between him and Rey, as absurd as that is.
shareThe novelization is trying to have a Rey and Kylo romance. That's worst. At least Finn isn't abusive.
shareI think they cast Adam Driver simply because they needed someone that was even uglier than Boyega. Who knows where that will go. I doubt Kylo survives, but whatever they do, it's shoehorned in.
shareIt's so sad and it speaks volumes about the incompetent writing that among other things I predicted immediately after seeing the TFA dumpster fire that Finn would likely be given a meaningless busy work side plot so he would have something to do. His character arc in TFA left absolutely no reason for him to be at the center of events going forward.
shareApparently his entire purpose now is to serve as a love interest for either Rey or that Asian chick.
