Daisy Ridley, famed for her portrayal of Rey in the Star Wars sequel trilogy, is branching out into various genres with roles in films like Ophelia and Chaos Walking. She’s now tackling action in Cleaner, a movie inspired by Die Hard but featuring a female lead. Despite her new ventures, Ridley is set to reprise her role as Rey in the upcoming Star Wars sequel directed by Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy. The project has faced some development challenges, but the new writer is aware of the political themes inherent in Star Wars.
I feel like [the Star Wars films] are all political. I feel like it's the individual versus the big corporation or the big group, so I think they always have been.
If you think about George Lucas, the six movies that he did, and the universe that he created, it's actually very steeped in broad notions of politics.
I called it Dry Shard because we were supposed to be on the Shard.
What if Die Hard, but John McClane is a badass female window cleaner?
