The “Star Wars” alum, who’s best known for her role as Rey within the sequel trilogy, is ready to reprise her role in a brand new Jedi Order film. Nonetheless, details have been far and few between because it was initially announced, and fans have begun to fret in regards to the character’s fate in a galaxy far, distant. Within the meantime, Ridley has continued to tackle a wide range of projects and expand her reach as an actress.

A fast glance at Ridley’s IMDbpage shows that Ridley is currently attached to eight upcoming projects following the discharge of her latest horror film, “We Bury The Dead,” which got here out last month.

Along with the upcoming “Star Wars” film, Ridley can be attached to “Dedication,” “Federico, the Imaginary Lifetime of Fellini,” “Killa Bee,” “Me vs. Me,” “The Good Samaritan,” and “The Last Report.”

Unfortunately, little or no is thought at the moment in regards to the trilogy that Simon Kinberg is working on, except that it’s going to happen years after the events of 2019’s “The Rise of Skywalker.” Currently, the one movie set to happen within the years after the events of that film is “Starfighter,” starring Ryan Gosling and scheduled for release in May 2027. Even though it is rumored that Rey won’t be involved with that project, fans still wonder if she might be mentioned not directly.

During her exit interview, Kennedy revealed that Kinberg is currently “working” on the trilogy and hopes he’ll deliver something in the approaching months. “He wrote something that we read in August, and it was superb, but not there. We’ve just about upended the story, after which spent a fantastic deal of time on the treatment, which he finished literally about 4 weeks ago,” she said. “And it’s a really detailed treatment, like 70 pages. And so he is anticipated to present us something in March.”

While fans are eagerly awaiting more updates concerning Ridley’s latest movie, she told Parade that 1977’s “A Latest Hope” continues to be her favorite “Star Wars” film “since it’s all of the origins of all of it.”

She also told the publication that she is looking forward to watching “Starfighter,” adding, “I feel that it’s going to be great,” and praised the “sensible group of actors” involved within the project.
