DAISY RIDLEY PROVIDES UPDATE ON STAR WARS: NEW JEDI ORDER

Daisy Ridley has offered a reassuring update on the status of the upcoming film, Star Wars: New Jedi Order, despite recent industry rumors. The movie, which is set to feature Ridley reprising her role as Rey Skywalker, has been in development with no official production start date announced. However, Ridley indicated that the project is still moving forward, expressing her continued excitement and confidence.

In a recent statement, Ridley revealed that a major update is ‘imminent,’ hinting at insider knowledge: ‘I might have already seen something… and there might be a date of when we’re… [in] the next stages.’ She reassured fans, saying, ‘We’re all good,’ and emphasized that the team is ‘just out to make a great movie.’

The film has faced some setbacks, including the departure of screenwriter Steven Knight. However, this does not necessarily signal doom for the project. Historical precedents, such as the development of The Empire Strikes Back, show that changes in the creative team can sometimes lead to positive outcomes. After Leigh Brackett’s initial draft for The Empire Strikes Back, Lawrence Kasdan took over and created what many consider the best Star Wars film.

Currently, The Mandalorian and Grogu is the only new Star Wars film with a confirmed release date, set for May 22, 2026. Other projects in various stages of development include Dawn of the Jedi, a potential film spun out of the events of Ahsoka, and Rogue Squadron, which remains in active development despite previous delays.

Ridley’s update suggests that New Jedi Order is on track to push the Star Wars franchise into a new era beyond the existing saga. While the film has not officially gone into production yet, Ridley’s excitement and the imminent update indicate positive progress. Her statements provide direct insight into the current status of the project and offer reassurance to fans about its future.

Despite the setbacks and changes, the overall message remains hopeful and optimistic. Ridley’s confidence and the continuing development of various Star Wars projects suggest that fans have much to look forward to in the expanding galaxy far, far away.
