The sequel trilogy star offered her thoughts on the topic while speaking to Gaël Golhen of the French entertainment news outlet Premiere following her being honored with the 2024 Deauville American Film Festival’s ‘New Hollywood‘ award, itself given every year to “an emerging actor or actress from tomorrow’s cinema.”.....“I was simply asked if I wanted to do it, based on an idea, without the story or even the script,” explained Ridley, as translated by DeepL. “But if I had not been convinced by the concept, the film would not have seen the light of day. I took the time to think about it for a day and I said to myself that I had a great time on these films. This new adventure seemed fun to me, so why say no?”....“Also,” she continued, “there was a strange coincidence: two people told me in the same week that they would love to know what Rey was doing now. I had no idea that there was interest! People really like Rey. I think this new film will be exciting and will advance the franchise in an interesting way.”

From there, the actress was pressed as to whether she had ever given any thought as to what Rey had gotten up to after The Rise of Skywalker, to which she bluntly admitted, “I didn’t care until I was asked.....I felt like the story had wrapped up really nicely,” said the actor. “So Rey’s return had to be worthwhile, and I think it is. I’m also in a very different position: I was 21 when I did the first one, I’m 32 now, and so I have a lot more experience on set. It’s very exciting to imagine how my current life will affect the character."......the actor was eventually asked by Golhen, “The way that some fans received Rey was very violent [in this sense, the term is referring to ‘violently negative emotions’ rather than any actual physical actions]. Did you ever have that feeling?”

In turn, Ridley asserted, “No, no, no. I think that certain people have expressed negativity, but I don’t give it much attention....Because it doesn’t really concern me,” she added. “I cannot change the way that some men look at women. That’s unfortunately how society functions. And then overall, I have been very well received. I’ve made the choice to to concentrate on the positive.”

IMHO, I wouldn't make much of it. It was a gotcha question that needed to be translated. In general, Ridley has been pretty diplomatic. The tone of the question could have meant, or been interpreted as being sexualized. ( If you are the female lead in any big franchise, you are going to get sexualized, and marketed as such, I don't see any way around it)

Getting death threats and getting stalked is part of the process now unfortunately. However I also understand that can't be used as a sweeping generalization against the entire fandom. More and more, over time, people will understand why Felicity Jones wanted out. She didn't want to deal the baggage that comes with Star Wars that no one ever talks about in public.

Something I've said before is it's always better to ignore celebrity interviews. @jye4ever , I know you are old enough to remember when entire families would sit around a 12 inch tube TV, eating Shake and Bake chicken, and watch 20/20. They'd watch Hugh Downs stay silent as Barbara Walters would asbolutely chisel at "guests" in interviews without mercy. Engagement like that will never exist anymore.

Looks awesome!
I can still remember scratching my head when the fight on the Tontine IV starts and everything had these purple/magenta flashes...
So is this only available to download?
 
There's something deeply unsettling about these modern AI generated movies. A subconscious, overwhelming feeling that you've seen it all before, only now it's been stolen, taken out of context and severely bastardized. Kind of like a good pop tune trapped in a rap song...
