Hasn’t read the script

Now Daisy Ridley confirms no script as she tells Collider she hasn’t read one while promoting the release of her latest movie Magpie at SXSW:

I know a script is happening, and I’m going to be reading it imminently, which is very exciting.

Ridley also told the site she thinks the title will stay as New Jedi Order and that filming could take place this year:

It could be, but I’m not sure. I think to be honest, the writers’ strike has obviously delayed quite a lot of things. So the intention was later this year. Hopefully, it will be. Otherwise, top of next, I would imagine.

The movie has no release date and is being directed by Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy.

Wild rumors have actually offered that the film will never see the light of day.
