Daisy Ridley Promises Disney Will Deliver Quality Over Speed With Her Upcoming Movie – The Wait Will Be Worth It!

by

It emerged in October 2022 that Damon Lindelof and Justin Britt-Gibson were jointly penning a fresh Star Wars movie, provisionally known as ‘New Jedi Order’. Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy was slated to direct this project. The storyline was expected to unfold post the sequel trilogy, potentially involving characters from those movies.

Initially, Lindelof and Britt-Gibson were the screenwriters for the project, but they departed by March 2023. Steven Knight took over from them at that time. In April 2023, it was confirmed that Daisy Ridley would reprise her role as Rey. However, by October 2024, Knight had also left, and George Nolfi was brought in to take his place. Filming is now anticipated to begin in late 2025.

The film has experienced multiple setbacks, encountered issues with scriptwriters, and it’s uncertain about its current status at this point.

The tale unfolds fifteen years following ‘Rise of Skywalker’, delving into a galaxy at peace after the war, with the remnants of the First Order and the Jedi Order in disarray. As mentioned by Kathleen Kennedy, Rey is dedicated to keeping her pledge to Luke and reestablishing the Jedi Order using old Jedi texts as a guide.

In a recent interview while promoting her latest film ‘Cleaner,’ Daisy Ridley gave a brief update on the upcoming movie, marking the first such statement in months. She revealed that she’s aware of the movie’s plot and finds it thrilling, but she hasn’t read the script yet, as director Nolfi has only recently taken charge of the project.

As a dedicated cinephile, I recently learned from an exclusive chat with Ridley that the production process for our eagerly awaited film has faced some delays, and the development phase has taken longer than expected.

Ridley pointed out that the release date usually determines how swiftly movies begin filming. Yet, she highlighted the significant benefit of having the flexibility to polish the ‘New Jedi Order’ script. She feels that audiences would rather have a thoughtfully crafted narrative than one that has been hastily produced.

As a movie reviewer, I’ve often observed how release dates can significantly impact films and their production timelines. The luxury of taking time to finesse the script for the upcoming New Jedi Order, ensuring it delivers an engaging and immersive story, is truly appreciated. I firmly believe that fans would rather wait for a well-crafted masterpiece than settle for a hastily produced film.

As a movie enthusiast myself, I can’t help but share my excitement about the upcoming film! I have full faith in George Nolfi’s writing skills – he’s simply brilliant! I can hardly wait to dive into the script, and I’m convinced that the time we’ve invested in its development will pay off by crafting a story that packs a powerful punch. So, fellow film lovers, trust me when I say the wait for this movie will be more than worthwhile!

You can certainly anticipate that the wait will prove rewarding. I’ve had a glimpse of what George [Nolfi] is crafting, and let me tell you, his writing ability is exceptional. Consequently, I am genuinely excited to delve into it, and yes, all this patience has been well justified.
