Daisy Ridley's epic return as Rey: Star Wars universe expands with new Jedi Order!

In a stunning announcement from Star Wars Celebration, the galaxy far, far away is set to welcome back its beacon of hope, Daisy Ridley, as Rey in a groundbreaking new chapter that promises to redefine the legacy of the Jedi. Under the visionary direction of Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy and penned by Steven Knight, the yet-to-be-titled film is poised to carve out a new destiny for the galaxy post-The Rise of Skywalker.

Lucasfilm's president, Kathleen Kennedy, has unveiled tantalizing glimpses into Rey's journey, set over a decade after the saga's last installment. With the First Order vanquished, the galaxy stands at a crossroads, and the Jedi are scattered, their future uncertain. "Well, we’re 15 years out from ‘Rise of Skywalker,’ so we’re post-war, post-First Order, and the Jedi are in disarray," Kennedy revealed, highlighting the daunting task that Rey faces in her quest to forge a new Jedi Order, honoring the legacy of the Skywalker lineage.

The buzz around Daisy Ridley's return has electrified the Star Wars community, with Kennedy sharing the sheer excitement Ridley felt upon receiving the call to reprise her iconic role. "She was out of her mind excited," Kennedy remarked, underscoring the deep connection and passion Ridley holds for the Star Wars universe. Jon Favreau, a stalwart of the franchise's expansion on Disney+, echoed this sentiment, celebrating the strong bonds and enduring community that Star Wars nurtures among its alumni and fanbase.
