Daisy Ridley, the actress known for her role as Rey in the Star Wars sequels, has indicated her excitement about the upcoming Star Wars movie focused on her character, Rey Skywalker. Ridley praised the cool story idea provided by director Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, an Oscar-winning filmmaker with a background in documentaries. Steven Knight of Peaky Blinders fame is involved with the scriptwriting process, which was previously touched by Damon Lindelof and Justin Britt-Gibson.

Ridley has been actively promoting her new indie drama, Sometimes I Think About Dying. However, she also spent time discussing the anticipated return of Rey in the Star Wars universe. She declined to confirm her co-stars John Boyega (Finn) and Oscar Isaac (Poe Dameron)'s involvement in the movie but hinted that her shooting experience this time around would be profoundly different as she now feels like a grown-up compared to when she first starred in the franchise.

This new Star Wars content joins a bustling future lineup, including a 'Mandalorian & Grogu' film by Jon Favreau, a theatrical event from Dave Filoni, and a 'Dawn of the Jedi' movie by James Mangold. Fans have also much to anticipate on Disney Plus, with The Bad Batch's final season arriving soon.

Will Daisy Ridley's new Star Wars movie include appearances from Finn and Poe?

As of now, Daisy Ridley has not confirmed any appearances from her co-stars, including John Boyega and Oscar Isaac for the new Star Wars movie. Their participation remains unknown.

Beyond the excitement for the latest Star Wars news, fans of the franchise recall Daisy Ridley's breakout role as Rey, which was central to the Star Wars sequel trilogy consisting of 'The Force Awakens', 'The Last Jedi', and 'The Rise of Skywalker'. These recent films served both as a continuation of the original story and as an introduction of a new generation of characters. Ridley's character, who later adopted the name Rey Skywalker, has been pivotal, bridging the story of the old guard with the new heroes.
