He told the talk show host his mum Abigail Boyega was looped in on his big plan and credited her for delivering a great 'surprised' performance.
"My mum knew about it, she knew I got the house, I just needed one of them to know so that if one of them had a heart attack, the other can take them to the hospital," explained the actor.
"Mum is the backbone of the family, she's queen. She done the most Oscar winning performance when he found out."
To top it all off, Boyega had a Jaguar parked out in front for his parents.
