Thank you for watching! Kudos to Daisy Ridley for standing up for the fans even if it makes Disney’s brain twist to understand how she can side with the people they told her were the “problem”.

Apparently all that's needed to defeat misogyny and the patriarchy is to not hate men, don't defecate all over the people whose support you need in order to have a job in the first place, and to just be a genuine human being.
Wake me up when the rest of the women working in entertainment and politics figure this out. 🤦♂️
Remember the look daisy and the actors gave after rise came out with JJ Abraham's?
They all know deep down inside, Disney has made it shit.
When the response to the woke is something like, "we've always liked female (or racial, ethnic, sexual, national, etc) representation, that's already playing into the hands of the political left. The only identity they ultimately give a damn about is that a person or group be of the ideological left too. So-called centrists & conservatives (or JK-Rowling-type liberals) need not apply.
The shill media pumping out paid for puff pieces never understood.... We don't hate the actors.
Kelly aka Rose Tico is by all accounts a bubbly individual without a bad bone in her body... Yet her character was made to deflect Finn away from working with Rey when Finn and Rey shared the 'awakening' as seen in TFA. More so in Finn's case so using Rose to deflect Finn's story away from sharing Rey's and having a lecture on rich people while at the same time putting space horses above the welfare of children resulted in Rose being a wasted character who took up screen time that could have been dedicated to telling a better story.
Speaking of, John aka Finn had his thunder stolen when Disney and Lucasfilm took his co-lead status away when KK and krew decided to focus the main plot on Rey. They also refused to stand up for Boyega in China. Ultimately he was turned into comic relief when the audience wanted to see Boyega play the part of a Storm Trooper who overcame his brainwashing and could elevate himself into a new unknown destiny that was full of promise and potential alongside the few people he considered friends. The audience is still waiting for that story to play out, but the writing team decided the screen time should go to Rey instead.
And thus we come to Rey... Enough has been said about the character that I won't repeat. We all know the problems with Rey. Instead I'll highlight the issue with the character that ultimately killed any interest in her moving forward and that's announcing she is a Skywalker... Rey has the writers on her side, and in that moment the writers could have made Rey sympathetic and given her a new goal... If she had said "Rey Palpatine, I came to say thank you to my masters for giving me a future... and to say goodbye to my friends..." ... if she had said that, she'd have reached the end of one story, knowing who she is while acknowledging the Skywalkers had indeed saved a Palpatine... But not the Emperors Palpatine... and that she was going to walk into a galaxy knowing her name comes with bagged but that she was going to accept the legacy of that name while honoring her Skywalker masters. In this way the end of the Skywalker line ends in victory in that they stopped Rey from following the Emperors path and helped her become her own person. (Though this does require imagining she isn't currently possessed by the Emperor).
UGH NBC are bunch of left wing yes men
Daisy Ridley has NEVER been derogatory towards the Star Wars fans, and tbf, most Star Wars fans never has a problem with Daisy Ridley. It’s not her fault she got her dream job, then they gave her some awful scripts with a terrible character to play!
she acted very well tbh, idgaf if the jedi is a woman because daisy ridley was amazing in those movies, i hate that the story was kind of shockingly mediocre at best
She did well with what she got, but she did get the script for one of the the spearheads of modern strong female characters.
"Mary Sue is a Sexist Term"
I always liked daisy. Glad to see that she isn't gobbling the kool-aid
I wouldn't say her acting was particularly amazing. I wouldn't say she was bad either but it was a shit character in shit movies.
as soon as fans criticize the awful story, they play the sexist card. It means they already lost the argument and they refuse to accept the loss
Maybe she saw Rachel Zegler’s disastrous interviews
It's either "you are whatever-phobic or you are whatever-ist".
It is unprofessional from these activist women in the media.
exactly why those who feel bad for Daisy stuck in the middle should support her or any other actor going against the mob.
I HATE simps, but this is nothing to do with being female, and everything to do with making actors feel secure like we have ther back against this madness.
@@toolegittoquit_001 nah she wasn't bratty before the interview either. she was just normal
Daisy never was a problem. The media has tried to spin a narrative for years that she was bullied off of social media by 'toxic' misogynist Star Wars fans but if you actually look into things she left social media because of her opinions about gun control and just didn't feel she knew enough about everything to keep arguing with people over it, so decided to remove herself from the situation which is fair enough.. she's never expressed animosity towards anybody over it.
They needed a martyr to feel justified on their stupid decisions.
funny how we never heard about it.
Just so I don't have to look, what was her opinion. I'm imagining she was for gun control as a Brit. I do appreciate admitting lack of knowledge and stepping away regardless of topic or stance.
Thought that was Tran
@@silenceburns1336 Yeah, the main story is that Kelly Marie Tran was bullied off of social media because fans hated Rose Tico but many articles that talk about that also claim the situation with Daisy Ridley was similar and that 'toxic Star Wars fans' attacked her because they hated Rey and felt she'd ruined the franchise. What actually happened was that she said we need to end gun violence (not even about gun control really) and was then accused of being a hypocrite by a handful of idiots because Star Wars has shooting in it. My point is that the morons who went after her weren't people who hated her character or anything to do with Star Wars, it was over a personal opinion she had that they disagreed with. And even then, when she deactivated her Instagram account she didn't say it was because of harrasment or threats, she even put up a last post saying (and I quote) 'I just want to be on my phone less! Trying to be more present and all that and got a busy few months ahead so want less distractions...it's all good!' So I'm not even sure if she was too bothered by it all anyway.
I'm getting the feeling that Daisy may be taking a leaf out of henry cavills book here. When interviewers were asking him about the toxicity of fans, and he retorts with how the fans aren't being toxic, they're passionate. It's giving me that vibe, honestly.
That's exactly what it is.
That happened with Cavil because he IS a fan. John Boyega is also a Star Wars fan and joked about how he was told to say "They fly now!" when clones had jetpacks in the Clone Wars show.
@@R3GARnatorwait, John boyega was in the clone wars show?
her career died after star wars, im genuinely sorry for her
I honestly blame Star Wars. Her face is tied to that franchise and because of the writing people likely go out of their way to not see her stuff because of it
Kathleen Kennedy is to blame. End of story...
Given the millions she gets paid, i think she'll be fine.
Why? I think Daisy is a consenting adult. Sign up for a shit film, win shitty prizes. Poor millionaire, living in her mansion.... Simps everywhere.
Even if the sequel trilogy was a total blast, she would've problems getting roles.
Mark Hammill, Carrie Fisher and many other actors and actresses not only from Star Wars had problem staying relevant despite being stars in major franchises.
I think Daisy Ridley is a good actor, but people just don't like Rey cause she is written without flaws
Ya she seems like a really nice person. K.K. is the Devil lol
And I have massive respect for her standing up for us, even through the criticism of her character.
What were Luke’s flaws?
@@vaporwave4880 Really? Eagernes, stuburness, hotheadness...
She may just need her own Dark Knight or The Batman, if you know what I mean.
The true problem at the heart of this scenario is that Disney is morally and creatively bankrupt. They are seemingly incapable of producing new content nor are they able to make things that aren't driven by "the message". This mentality also invaded Star Wars and it has left the Fandom deeply frustrated. They had a chance to build upon what had been done before with the Sequel Trilogy they made, but instead all they did was poorly retell the Original Trilogy but with "the message" rife throughout it. The OT is revered and retelling it in any way, shape or form was always going to upset long time fans of the franchise. Disney, Lucasfilm and Kathleen Kennedy became so intent on taking Star Wars down their own path that they completely ignored the true fans of this franchise to make content for a part of the fandom that barely exists or not at all. In typical fashion they reacted to the backlash by labeling these fans as "ists" or "phobes" rather than realizing that they were the ones with the problem. The actors involved in the Sequel Trilogy were never the problem and it's great to see Daisy Ridley defending us rather than toeing the company line and throwing us under the bus.
"The Message" above all.
It's a shame but Disney decided to go down this path. They binned the plot that Lucas had suggested for the sequel trilogy. They got rid of the Extended Universe. They put Kathleen Kennedy in charge and backed her every step of the way. They allowed their creative team to run their mouths, blaming the fanbase every time a movie or show flopped.
The thing people have realised is that the Disney of today is a greedy, self centred, ideologically driven company that has no respect for it's customers or the IP's that it possesses. The whole thing deserves to come crashing down as a lesson to the next ten generations that the job of an entertainment company is to entertain.
Of course Disney has no respect. The vast majority of the IPs they hold are either bought, copied from public domain and fairy tales, or plagiarized. They are just parasites, gobbling up other people's work and ideas and shitting out deformed, unimaginative identity politics bullshit.
Well said but the Prequels were garbage. Rogue One is the only true Star Wars made in recent times.
Too bad Disney has already made a lot of money off the garbage they put out
Star Wars fans to Daisy Ridley:
*"Perhaps, We Judged You Too Harshly !!!"*
The prequel haters owe Hayden Christensen and Jake Loyd an apology as well
@@chasehedges6775the phantom menace came out in 1999. Was he bullied on Facebook which came out in 2004, or was it letters? I'm just curious how I made their lives harder because those movies are bad.
@@StonieTark
Still WAY BETTER than _Disney's!Sequel Trilogy_
@@StonieTark we used type writers and sent them by carrier pigeon 😂
Star Wars fans are gullible and just asking to be tricked again...
Disney doesn’t deserve to own Marvel nor Star Wars!
Thank you! You worded it correctly! I LOVE Marvel & Star Wars and at this point I don’t want them to be under Disney’s ownership anymore… Disney has become a TERRIBLE company!
Daisy has seen the writing on the wall and she understands that attacking the audience with baseless claims will hurt her career prospects in the long term something that Disney has repeatedly failed to understand
She handled that interview superbly by not giving into the bullbaiting tactics of modern propaganda
Yeah exactly, and I'm not convinced that's innocent. Didn't she call people sexist for criticising her character (calling it a Mary Sue)? I think she is leaving a sinking ship is all.
It's truly disgusting that writers, directors, and producers are willing to use actors as meat shields for the criticism that they rightfully deserve.
Typical behavior from narcissist, willingly shove others under the bus to maintain their own appearances.
Kathleen Kennedy and this other woke Feminist writing Star wars should be fired.
Really happy to see Daisy Ridley being still sane and not indoctrinated with such nonsense. Its just sad she became Kathleen Kennedy's self-insert and having her talents go to waste.
Yeah wasted her talent by the old a bitter feminine Kathleen Kennedy can't even dealing the truth because she thought her ideas Better the men's in reality putting herself in the character like a fantasy revenge honestly all it is all the writers making themself Being hero there's story not the audience or fans themselves is the problem
Now I whole-heartedly respect you Ray...
You just wanted to do your best.
Be a disney princess, a warrior, a Jedi Sentinel, but never a feminist, woke movement icon, nor someone to be hated by those you want to inspire.
It’s KK that ruins everything. Daisy Ridley is not and never has been the problem
@@EndymionTv Sadly that is true
Many think we hate Ray and Daisy because they're women, no
Daisy is a great actress and probably a nice person IRL but her CHARACTER REY was not that well received or admired because of who wrote her
Being a feminist is absolutely fine, but woke feminism or the branch of feminism that deem women superior… that’s just nonsense. I’m all for equal right. All for equal pay (if there’s equal effort/revenue).
Ray is spelled Rey, and she was a badly-written character. The people who should be throwing bones are the people who made her character a usurper of another, better character's story. Daisy isn't the problem.
@@SammaclauseGamgee 100% correct...
Daisy is wonderful. She didn't take the bait and she stuck that landing flawlessly. 10/10
Shes only thinking about her career but its nice having someone somewhat in their face telling them ignoring fans isnt the way to go
I get your probably skeptical of her but are you in her mind to know what she is or isn't worried about?
@@SupergirlJLM can't say I am but speculation based on behavior and trends tends to be correct
@@dantespicysausage9615 if she was more concerned with her career you'd think she would have played along with the nbc hosts to not risk getting fired? Just saying 😁
@@SupergirlJLM delusion is the deadliest and sweetest of poisons.
@@dantespicysausage9615 its not delusion its called not constantly expecting the worst. It's called Optimism and Hope for a better future in Star Wars without this agenda. There's a difference. You're assuming things about her. She could have genuinely meant what she said and here you are assuming she just cares about her career.
Only Star Wars 1-6 and the EU is canon; Disney’s continuity is not canon!
Well said
The dick's-knee's offerings are nothing but feverish nightmare spawns that even fan movies hate to own.
I really hope people keep, or start, seeing it like that. This is what scares me about the prospect of having Disney produce slightly less toxic Star Wars content that is acceptable to the public. I pray they keep messing up, so that Disney's "canon" falls out of favour entirely. Please let this be a separate era that people leave behind and don't take seriously...
We need more actors like Daisy Ridley, Jenna Ortega and Henry Calvin who show respect to the fans.
Nah we don't need daisy ridley.
@@Demiurge13why? I’d much rather have daisy ridley with her respectful attitude than, say, Rachel zegler or Brie Larson
@@DannyDevitoOffical-TrustMeBro because it's not genuine
She is just being smart, no way she actually believe what she said.
Exactly!. Judging by the comments everyone loves her now. I guess that was Disney's plan.
@@louiscypher6772 Those who do not remember history are doomed to repeat it. Let them spend another billion dollars for another shitty movie that insults George Lucas' legacy even further, I don't care anymore.
Of course not. Did people suddenly forget her attitude towards people having constructive criticism towards Rey around the time of The Last Jedi? She said that to simply call Rey a Mary Sue was sexist.
@@animatedink2529 It's obnoxious seeing how almost nobody else is bringing that up. I would've liked Daisy well enough if she hadn't said that, but of course, she's in Hollywood. A hive of scum and villainy.
Dw you're not the only 1 who remembers. Not that it makes much difference. Read around and the majority of people have forgotten. Glad I found yours and the above comment though.@@kirby28645
Daisy Ridley deserves better along with Hayden Christensen and Jake Lloyd
Completely agree. John Boyega as well
@@MyklesChannel He’s a meh actor but I agree
Jake Lloyd was a shitty kid actor and he was horrible in Episode One. He was just propped up even more than Daisy is now, even by George Lucas. Then after he becomes an adult, he starts blaming George for his career bottoming out. No! Jake is a shitty actor!
As well as Ahmed Best.
@@johnnyd3158 💯
I miss Starkiller because, even though he was an op video game character, he had an interesting story tied to Vader and the formation of the rebels
This may sound weird, but I kinda see Starkiller as the Kratos of Star Wars. You know, an insanely powerful, dual-wielding badass (in the sequel), that defeats giant monsters and has accomplished amazing feats.
My take from the question she was asked she was standing up for the director not really the fans
Agreed. When put into context with some of her other comments, I don't think she's defending the fanbase that has been critical of the treatment of the franchise as much as she's downplaying the amount and legitamacy of concern that has been expressed. In other comments she's clearly stated that she loves the new story and that she's a fan of Obaid-Chinoy.
That said, she clearly did a great job handling the question and leaving enough ambiguity in her response to not only keep a target off her back, but also make most of the more outspoken critics think that she's in agreement with them. She definately deserves a ton of praise for successfully escaping that trap - if she ever leaves acting, she might be able to switch to PR.
Moments like this create a lot of goodwill. She's not bashing fans. She's keeping an even message. The corporations at large should be taking notes.
Nothing will change 😢
She is smart to try to put her away from the crazies destined to fail.
Just like her Rey film will and that will make Chinoy very uncomfortable.
YES! THAT'S IT! WE DON'T HATE HER WE JUST HATE HOW HER CHARACTER WAS HANDLED!
The problem I have with the latest chapters of SW is that she was never in any true danger. She just woke up and was a jedi. THEY KILLED SOLO!
The actress didnt wright this crap and she did the best she could acting in this pile of S#!+.
I haven’t seen a single person say “we don’t want a female director for the Ray movie” like that news anchor said, all I’ve seen people complain about is the directors lack of directing experience, it has nothing to do with her being a woman and everything to do with her inexperience, she has only directed two episodes of the worst rated show on Disney plus, I don’t think someone with that little experience should be given the keys to a 300 million dollar movie. A better female director would be Bryce Dallas Howard, she worked on Mando and had a fair amount of directing experience and I would rather have her direct the movie than Chinoy
Another excellent choice would be 2-time Oscar winner Kathryn Bigelow. She's already proven she can direct action films.
@@ywainleonis2035 well said
nope, she is just repeating what she was told to say.
The Rogue Squadron movie failed to materialise precisely because fans were stoked about it. Simple.
From what I can see these actors got screwed just as hard as the fans did.. No idea what their politics are, but that’s how I’m reading the situation.. But it will be a cold day in hell when I consider going to see another Disney movie in my life time..
Giving her too much credit. I smell a ploy
Possible, she may just be one of the smarter ones in Hollywood, who still knows how to handle this. Would still be better than the rest.
@@marcbraun5342 Yeah knows how to handle it... aka not being a cantankerous contrarian and trying to get in people's good graces by lying to them like a politician.
Very brave from Ridley to come forth with that. Let’s show her how much we like having her on our side and send love and encouraging words to her whenever possible! She’s a good actress with a hatefully bad script!
Yeah lets just listen and believe anybody that says what we want to hear when they 100% know what people want to be told... you aren't critical about anything and are just willing and waiting to be taken advantage of.
i agree bro, nice to know shes based
she is just not a hateful person unlike the women running this show.
YOU GO GIRL!
It’s almost like those of us who are vocal have been saying this the whole time. A good story, with good acting, writing and directing behind it. We don’t care if the MC is a woman, for as long as it feels right.
The real issue is that Disney has destroyed Star Wars. What's left is an empty husk. Though we can live SW with our DVDs in our library of all six episodes.
It's not sexism to want competent people in charge of what we love, and we don't particularly care if the competence comes from a man or a woman. We want good stories that don't beat us over the head with social politics, with reasonably built-up characters who aren't Mary Sue/Gary Stu. Most of us even understand that it's not necessarily the actor's fault that the writer's and director's words and agendas get forced through their lips.
I like Daisy. I've never had a problem with her. I've watched a few of her movies and she is quite talented, and always pretty chill when it comes to interviews. Just a normal person doing her dream job hoping that you enjoy her performance regardless of the political views of the people she works with/for. I can respect that.
Daisy Ridley was never a bad person. She was just an actress who got a bad role for a bad character in a bad trilogy and was handed a bad card.
Never seen anyone hate on Daisley as a person tbh. People are just fed up of crap writing and the "message"
I'm not surprised about the title role being reduced in Snow White - not after what happened to Willow.
No matter what issue is at hand, a PERSON male or female, white or black, simply cannot have such baked-in excuses readily at hand to dismiss fair critique. The result will always be mediocrity, at BEST. And keep in mind, they never had that proper feedback up to this point either, which is why they handle it so poorly, so often.
I’m happy for this video. I’ve never had an issue with Daisy, I’ve always blamed the writing. I was worried it’d turn into the same problem as Jake Lloyd and Hayden Christensen in which the fanbase made them feel like shit for something they weren’t at fault for
For me it's just an act. She's an actor for god's sake and apparently very smart one, so instead of pissing off people who might, in the next 10+ years, take over, she plays neutral and will be employable regardless if the tides turned or not
Why don't they just do a live action Star Killer? You have the actual person that looks like he is in good shape for the roll and is a true fan of Star Wars.
OH GOD NOT BLACK TRANS GAY STARKILLER
Seriously though, unless it’s made by a different company, that’s probably how it’d be. I would love to see an accurate movie adaptation of tfu tho.
Because he is white straight guy. If Starkiller is a gay black asian fat and has a dck and teets then maybe they will.
1:25 What about Jyn Erso? She was cool and Rogue One is the second best Star Wars movie ever made in my opinion, right behind Empire Strikes Back.
As I've said before, when it comes to disney star wars, I have extreme contempt for the writers, pity for the actors.
To be fair, Daisy Ridley did a good job with what she was given. However considering her reactions from any of the interviews before the "Skywalker Saga" came out and she wasn't sure how she was going to talk about her disappointment while still promoting the movie...
Blaming the fans is a tactic of contemptuous, woke fools. I believe she did the best she could, given the crap she had to work with. Daisy is a likable actress, and I would love to see her in a well written and directed Star Wars.
I agree with you. Daisy Ridley has been awesome, way better at PR than Disney or anyone else connected with her films. I think every fan was excited about the introduction of Rey. It's just the story turned garbage. No one wants the lore behind Star Wars undone. It's like Disney wants to undo everything the fans loved.
You're not wrong at all. I think we would be foolish to throw away the opening Daisy gave us.
We owe her that much for doing what she did...and being consistent about it!
LOL you owe an overpaid actress jack all
Arguably she might just be saying what she think (or her agent think) fans want to hear, but that's already much better than 99% of hollywood actors nowadays, she feel real though. That's refreshing either way but the fact is she never degraded star wars fans because they didn't like her character. She never called everyone sexists and racists and whatever because they said her character is badly written. Most of hollywood could take a lesson in that department.
I’m shocked.. I can’t believe I actually agree with her! It’s an outright *lie* that fans don’t want a woman director or female/poc characters- we don’t want the entire movie/series based *soley* on that single characteristic! It’s a quite simple concept to grasp!
I think there’s something to be said about the importance of tact and thoughtfulness in dialogue. You don’t have to be so adversarial in a disagreement, but that seems to be just how it goes these days. Ridley knows what she’s doing and fans appreciate her for it. You catch more flies with honey than vinegar.
Daisy has never been the problem for me and she is actually a really good actress, its cool to see that even she is getting tired of this bs.
Blaming the actors is not fair. Some people have a hard time separating characters from the people. Daisy seems like a nice young lady.
I think she leaned her lessons from all the drama surrounding the previous Star Wars movies and others stuffs like the Snow White backlash. Pissing off even part of the fanbase before the movie is even completed is a bad promo strategy. Plus she probably doesn’t want to get into all the stress and drama again so she chose to respond as diplomatically as she could.
Thank you! Finally someone said the quiet part out loud
OK, but, amidst all that, did she refuse to reprise her role as Rey Palatine-Skywalker knowing it'd piss off the fans even more considering she'll now become the Grand Jedi Master of a new council and Jedi???
No... She didn't.
Which means she can't be understanding our gripes that much if a Disney cheque can bring her right back.
Adam Driver said he's done.
John Boyega said no thank you.
Oscar Isaacs said yeah, right.
But, not Daisy.. She signed on One More Time for "The Force Is Female".
It's like people refusing to be mad at George Lucas for selling the rights to his kids(star wars) on the 1st place.
All of what Disney did wouldn't be Possible if Lucas never sold his billion dollar cash cow.
@Frieza-yg4zp compared to the kid who played young Anakin, George's backlash was tame lightwork. That's no excuse to sell the 2nd or 3rd biggest IP in history because of a few displeased fans from the original.
regardless, the fact that she actually "defended" those fans by saying that "fans not wanting a female lead/director for star wars is out of proportionate" is still something.. also, Hayden is hated as well because fans just don't like the prequels, and still, he came back for a modern take..
what I think about really is that, you may be right that she doesn't care as long as she can get her pay check, but I also think she genuinely believes that modern SW stories can be improved if Disney will actually listen to their fans..
it actually reminds me the interview of michael douglas for MCU's Antman films in the last couple of years.. every time he is questioned about it, he is bluntly saying it is only for the money and more likely too old to actually care overall..
@Frieza-yg4zp I know quite a few people who enjoyed the prequels (minus aotc) as well as myself.
I've also stumbled upon some yt vids where people enjoyed Phantom Menace, and RotS is definitely my favorite Star Wars movie.
There's definitely an a seesaw balance to the hate and love of the prequels but nowhere near unanimous as the hate for the sequels.
Even though George had a sequel story, he chose to sell it to Disney.
@@kmdreacts I can think of several billion reasons why...
@@kmdreacts Yeah you can leave now...
Fans never had a problem with the actress herself
It was the script and all the big heads behind it
She's just saying what her handlers told her to say after the Zegler disaster.
Daisy Ridley just got thrown under the bus by *them* as she was given a Mary sue/Girlboss character. Good on you for standing with the normies
Wait until you find out that Daisy Ridley was acting in that whole interview. The CIA trains Hollywood Actors for months to reprogram the franchise fans.
❤❤..There is alot of Truth in your statements😮😢
Except for Rachel Zegler 😏
Love it. Nice to hear a positive story and your delivery
We don’t hate Daisy Ridley, we hate Rey Palpatine and don’t want that garbage fictional character!
I love the leading "Fans have said they don't want a female director"....No fan has said that. What we have said is that we don't want Star Wars to be a feminist activist movie which is what this director makes. I want to go to the movies and just have fun I don't want to be lectured.
I don´t hate Daisy for that desaster, ruining the Skywalker Saga. I hate what she plays... used by Disney´s woke shit ideology...
Unfortunately for Daisy her star is forever tied to the ST and that is not something to be proud of.
I'm glad Daisey is getting the respect in this space she deserves, she did her best with what she was given. I'm happy for her that she gets this role, they can fix Rey if they give her some big struggles to overcome.
If she had more money like Henry Cavill from The Witcher - she could quit, but she's not on such level as he is (renoma and wealth) so she can't without destroying her career
Also the fact so many women drop feminists shows how wrong feminist movement is.
If she keeps this up I might actually watch the next star wars movie.
Daisy Ridley is amazing actress, done a huge disservice by terrible writers.
I’ve never had anything against the actors, they just read and do what the script says, it’s the writers and directors that mess it up
Daisy Ridley finally realizes her mistake for being involved in Disney Star Wars but we still don't trust her.
I don't think anyone ever blamed Daisy for the crappy character, but have blamed the character development, which comes from the horrible writing.
Yeah whatever Daisy 🙄
😂🤷🏻♂️
She sounds like a hypocrite when she says that what the fans are saying is fair and yet she is coming back to play Rey and it doesn't help her that she is kissing Chinoy's ass as well in that article.
I'm sorry, are we dealing with collective amnesia here? Daisy Ridley was all over every talkshow she was invited to, from the beginning, saying things like how everyone who uses the term "Mary Sue" is just a woman hater and has a fragile ego. She was fully on board with the bullshit or straight up refused to actually engage the fanbase intellectually. If you want an actor who spoke out about the shittyness at disney early, look towards John Boyega.
Seems that now she is being made to run some image catchphrases for the mouse, and people fall for it instantly. Y'all have some copium overdosed goldfish brains on you. Daisy always struck me as someone who just doesn't get attached to the work she does. Yes, she'll play in Star Wars, yes, she'll take the money and prestige that comes with it, but she will never be a Star Wars fan. In the end, she is probably just calculating enough to say what the Disney PR department tell her to at the moment.
The only way to force better content is to stop giving them money for the dogshit they are producing right now.
"No one wants SW to suck."
If they restart the EU without woke writers, it won't.
They're still ripping it off. SW is still .....discontinued.
Edit: Kudos for including shots of "Republic Commando.' Man, did that game need a sequel.
I don't trust Daisy Ridley. She wants to salvage a career, not tell us the truth.
Well done Daisy! We need more movie stars like you.
I hope Daisy Ridley doesnt get shat on by fans/audiences/movie industry who dont know what theyre talking about or would rather play politics than make good films. She sounds like the kind of actresses we need in Hollywood! This vid has made me a believer in Daisy Ridley!
No one thought she was the problem. The character she portrayed was one of them, but she wasn't!
Don't believe a word out of her mouth. It's just damage control. She is not and never was on the side of fans. You are a fool if you believe this dribble.
I loved the character of Rey in Force Awakens. I was excited to see her struggle to harness her powers and confront the dark side and become a powerful force user who redeemed Ben Solo and stopped Snoke.
But.....
What a beautiful Twi'lek! And she's in my favorite color!! 🥰🤗💕
Despite the backlash, I never heard of Daisy being a B on Twitter nor in interviews. She never blamed some _isms._
She's a wholesome girl.
We LOVE strong female characters - just (a) make them believable with SOME flaws and a reason for their amazingness, and (b) let just ONE straight white man be a strong, decent character in 2024 - please? Not just villains and/or greedy capitalists and/or DUMB to make the #girlboss look even MORE awesome 😥
*The Expanse was my favourite show - 90% strong women* - and I loved Katee Sackhoff's gender swapped Starbuck in 2004's Battlestar Galactica, YET *the same actress as Bo-Katan made me CANCEL DisneyPlus - WE aren't the problem here.* 😥
Nobody ever seemed to hate Daisy Ridley, just Rey. The interviewer tried to bait her so hard. Nobody has ever said they didnt want a female director. Bffr.
Great video. love the perspective.
Well said and spot on. Most people don't hate starwars. They hate Disney killing all their favorite characters for a "woke" agenda. If a production company took rainbow bright and made her into a gun toting, chain saw wielding maniac would little girls still enjoy it?
Those saying fans hated Daisy are the ones unable to separate dislike of the character and writing from someone acting as directed. She was doing the best with shite.

BBC: What about Star Wars?
Daisy Ridley: I have better things to do.
Star Wars was already trashed, changed, ruined. No fixing it now mate. Love your main point of no hatred toward an actor, no sane person will blame Daisy for the death of Star Wars.
Unfortunately, no matter how classy Daisy is, Disney is too far gone to be given a second chance. They slammed that window shut years ago.
Did everyone just forget that that Daisy Ridley was one of the Lucasfilm talking heads who insisted that the term ‘Mary Sue’ was sex¡st? I’ll be honest, I think she and Lucasfilm are attempting to do what Marvel has been attempting to do with their new Ultimate line: SHUTTING THE HELL UP!! and letting competent people (a majority of whom are men) fix the problem just long enough to turn a profit.
I’m sure that Daisy is a fine person and I have nothing against her personally. Professionally, however, as long as her paychecks are signed by KK, she is still Lucasfilm’s mouthpiece. She made the Mary Sue comment because she was told to and she downplayed the sex¡sm narrative because she was told to. With that in mind, be cautious: just because she said it doesn’t mean she believes it…
Also, this project will continue to undermine Luke Skywalker’s legacy and is therefore heresy, and should be treated and dealt with 40k-style.
This is true.
When it comes down to it, Daisy Ridley is just an actress that took a job. Being the star for a new Star Wars trilogy is one of those job offers that you really can’t refuse. And from day one she’s always seemed grateful to have that job and it’s certainly not her fault that Disney screwed up one of the easiest slam dunk opportunities for titanic success with one of the largest fandoms imaginable. It just goes to show that when you’re actually grateful for and humble about the opportunities given to you in life, people tend to respond quite kindly to that. Unlike some people… *ahem* Rachel Zegler
Yeah, Daisy Ridley herself has never been the problem I or, presumably, most people have had with modern Star Wars.
Neither has it been whether or not the person overseeing a project is a woman. Though I do find what that host woman said... amusing... "-which I find bizarre because episodes of the Mandalorian were directed by females-" (Some of which were enjoyable, yes. Point granted.) "-Kathleen Kennedy has been overseeing all of this-" Aaaaand that's just funny. Does... does she actually think that's a point in FAVOR of the state of Star Wars and women being involved? I don't think Kathleen Kennedy being a woman is inherently the problem, but what seems like a vast majority of people who take issue with the current state of Star Wars DESPISE Kathleen. "People don't want women, b-but Kathleen tho!" Yeah? And? She's the problem! If someone actually doesn't want women specifically involved, it's probably because they hate Kathleen so much that they've twisted it into a distaste for any woman being involved.
Which is stupid and wrong, mind you. Women are a huge part of Star Wars. Carrie Fisher as Leia and George Lucas's wife at the time helping him with his scripts are major reasons Star Wars was able to succeed. Kathleen "The Force is Female" Kennedy... has not been nearly so helpful.
I've never had a problem with Daisy. It's always been: Kathleen Kennedy, J J Abrams, Rian Johnson, Dave Filoni, Lucasfilm Story Group and the entire staff of Lucasfilm.
What a freaking hack!!so it's official, every single anchor, reporter, and writers have not a clue what STAR WARS IS ALL ABOUT!!!
