Daisy Ridley caught up with Collider recently while promoting her new action flick The Cleaner and – surprise, surprise – the conversation drifted to the stars and New Jedi Order, a project that Daisy would appear to be very involved with, and that looks to be far further down the development path than many expected.
“I don’t know that I’d be a producer on it, but I certainly have been very involved. I’m involved in, well, not very involved, but I’m involved in as much as I know what’s going on, I know the story, I know what’s going on with the script, so I’m aware of all that. And I think what’s been really wonderful over the last few years is being more involved from the start to finish, really coming to set knowing this is the absolute best way we can tell this story. These are the best actors for the job. This is the best crew for the job. Having that confidence is so lovely. And it’s not that I didn’t have that before, but I’m much more cognizant of it now. So in that way, I’m looking forward to turning up, really knowing the ins and outs of what the journey has been, and we’re arriving at the absolute best place to tell this particular story.”
We’ll be talking about this on next weeks episode of Making Tracks, and be sure to catch tonights episode which dropped earlier today.
