Daisy Ridley is part of the next Star Wars movie, and she's teasing what fans could expect from the galaxy far, far away as she aims to take the story in a “different direction.”
During an interview with AlloCineKing Skywalker said: “So I thought about it a little bit and once I knew what the story was and everything, I knew it was something I really wanted to do.”
He added: “I think it's a really fantastic exploration of the world of Star Wars. It's a really cool way to take the story in a slightly different direction.”
Daisy recalled that she was offered the role in the upcoming film directed by Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy while working on The rise of Skywalker.
“Actually, that was last minute. I was actually making my own movie last year and Kathy Kennedy said she wanted to have breakfast,” he said.
The 31-year-old continued: “And I thought we were having breakfast, so I was literally having breakfast and she was like, 'Oh, we could do another one.'” I was like, '…Okay.'”
Three new Star Wars Movies are in the works besides the movie Daisy. James Mangold and Dave Filoni will each direct separately. While Jon Favreau recently announced that he will direct The Mandalorian and Grogu.
