I'm nervous for Ridley and for the character, and I hope that they deliver something great. There have been some great Star Wars projects over the last year, from The Mandalorian to Ahsoka to Andor, but will this creative team be able to bring that same amount of magic to a new franchise and make Rey the star she is supposed to be?

Despite being one of the biggest pop culture franchises, Disney has struggled to get many of its Star Wars films on the screen. The latest in a string of Star Wars movies facing development issues is Daisy Ridley’s new Star Wars sequel, which shares some similarities with Henry Cavill’s Superman saga.

Film revolving around continued adventures of Daisy Ridley's character had shuffled screenwriters since it was first announced in April 2023

The Rise of Skywalker may have wrapped up the Skywalker Saga that had been going ever since the Star Wars franchise launched in 1977 with A New Hope, but that doesn’t mean we’re done spending time with characters from the concluding Sequel Trilogy.

New Star Wars movies are reportedly betting big on Daisy Ridley's Rey Skywalker, and there's a simple reason why Lucasfilm wants her on board.

Rey has long since been poised as the Luke Skywalker replacement in the Star Wars episodic saga, but she's now becoming even more important.
