Daisy Ridley is returning to the Star Wars galaxy, and sooner than many of her contemporaries. Unlike fellow trilogy leads Mark Hamill, who waited several years to reprise his role officially, and Hayden Christensen took a break from acting, Daisey will be coming back for a movie starring her character Rey rebuilding the Jedi order.

Daisy kept her humility in her role. In an interview with Collider, she opened up about her interactions with fans. "I think it's really interesting because I always felt just part of something. I never thought too much about my place in the thing. I just felt about the thing. It still surprises me when people are kind about her particularly, because of course people love Star Wars, but I'm always like, "Oh, thanks." It's still so thrilling. I think I love her as a character and I loved the characters around her and I love the people in it. It feels quite wonderful. I think if I thought about it too much my head would explode because it's so not overwhelming in a bad way, but like, wow overwhelming."

She also spoke about the recent announcement of the movie. "When we did the announcement last year, it was really, my agent flew over and honestly, I came off and we were all really emotional. Of course, I always feel lucky to be part of it, but it was like a reminder I suppose of, sorry I'm just gabbling, but I suppose a reminder of how people do feel about Rey. I was like, "It's wonderful." It's wonderful to be part of something that people love and to play a character that people... It's so weird. It's really making me emotional thinking about it. I get to have more adventures. I'm like, "Where is she now? What is this new adventure and how are things going to go?" That's a long way of saying it's great. It's really great."

No official date or title has yet been released for the Rey movie.
