With Star Wars possibly not working out, how about Daisy Ridley in the MCU or even James Gunn’s DCU?! Ridley also offers an update about her Star Wars movie which has its fourth new writer.
What did Daisy Ridley say about the MCU and James Gunn’s DCU?
In an interview with Comic Book, Ridley who stars in the new action movie, Cleaner, stated she’s open to both:
“Look, I’m open to loads of stuff. I work with this amazing second AD called Matthew Sharp, and he texts me cause he’s doing Avengers, and he goes, ‘If they call.’ So I was like, ‘If they call, absolutely.’ I then of course love Batman, love The Penguin. I’m a fan of so many sorts of films. Yeah, I’m open to everything.”
What about Star Wars?
George Nolfi is the new writer on the Star Wars: New Jedi Order (rumored title) script, who actually might be the first Disney Star Wars movie writer who knows what he is doing. Ridley offers she is excited:
“I have not read the latest script, but I know what’s happening, and I know the story, and I think what feels really good is that George is a phenomenal writer. I think we’re making sure that this story is the best way, this script is the best way to tell the story. And I think it will be worthwhile for everyone watching it, and I am very excited.”
Star Wars: New Jedi Order doesn’t have a release date. Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy is supposed to direct.
