It looks like actress Daisy Ridley might be hard at work on her next movie. The “Star Wars” alum, who is best known for her role as Rey in the sequel trilogy, is set to reprise her role in a new Jedi Order film. However, details have been far and few between since it was initially announced, and fans have begun to worry about the character’s fate in a galaxy far, far away. In the meantime, Ridley has continued to take on a variety of projects and expand her reach as an actress.

A quick glance at Ridley’s IMDb page shows that Ridley is currently attached to eight upcoming projects following the release of her latest horror film, “We Bury The ᴅᴇᴀᴅ,” which came out last month.

In addition to the upcoming “Star Wars” film, Ridley is also attached to “Dedication,” “Federico, the Imaginary Life of Fellini,” “Killa Bee,” “Me vs. Me,” “The Good Samaritan,” and “The Last Report.”

She has also been attached to star in “Ebenezer: A Christmas Carol.” According to IMDb, the movie is currently filming, and it looks like Ridley may already be on set.

On February 24, the “Young Woman and the Sea” actress took to her Instagram Stories to share two posts with her followers. The first was a promotional video for “We Bury The ᴅᴇᴀᴅ,” and the second was a black-and-white pH๏τo promoting her upcoming role in “Ebenezer.”

In December 2025, ᴅᴇᴀᴅline reported that she was one of the new faces attached to the star-studded adaptation, as she will be joining “Harry Potter” alum Rupert Grint and “The Hunger Games” star Sam Claflin, among others, in Paramount and Ti West’s new take on the classic Charles Dickens novella.

“Severance” breakout star Tramell Tillman and “The Lord of the Rings” alum Ian McKellen have also signed on, but it will be “Pirates of the Caribbean” star Johnny Depp who will be playing the тιтular role. At this time, Ridley’s role in the film is unknown.

While promoting her new movie “We Bury The ᴅᴇᴀᴅ” in January 2025, Ridley told Parade that the new movie will be “worth the wait,” adding, “It will arrive when it’s ready.”

Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy has been tapped to direct the film, although no other stars are attached to the project, and Kathleen Kennedy did not mention it at all during her exit interview with ᴅᴇᴀᴅline, leaving some to believe the film will be folded into the Simon Kinberg trilogy.

Simon Kinberg Is Currently Working On A New ‘Star Wars’ Trilogy

Unfortunately, very little is known at this time about the trilogy that Simon Kinberg is working on, except that it will take place years after the events of 2019’s “The Rise of Skywalker.” Currently, the only movie set to take place in the years after the events of that film is “Starfighter,” starring Ryan Gosling and scheduled for release in May 2027. Although it is rumored that Rey will not be involved with that project, fans still wonder if she will be mentioned in some way.

During her exit interview, Kennedy revealed that Kinberg is currently “working” on the trilogy and hopes he will deliver something in the coming months. “He wrote something that we read in August, and it was very good, but not there. We’ve pretty much upended the story, and then spent a great deal of time on the treatment, which he finished literally about four weeks ago,” she said. “And it’s a very detailed treatment, like 70 pages. And so he is expected to give us something in March.”

While fans are eagerly awaiting more updates concerning Ridley’s new movie, she told Parade that 1977’s “A New Hope” is still her favorite “Star Wars” film “because it’s all the origins of it all.”

She praised “the beautiful setting up of … the creation of all these wonderful people and the characters and the universe.”

She also told the publication that she is looking forward to watching “Starfighter,” adding, “I think that it will be great,” and praised the “brilliant group of actors” involved in the project.
