Will Daisy Ridley’s Rey Come Back To The Screens?
There have been rumors floating around about Ridley’s return after she revealed she had lunch at the Lucasfilm studio. She, later on, noted that there was “nothing saucy happening.” Is there a possibility for Rey to return to the franchise?
Fans saw the character survive imminent death against Palpatine and start her own Jedi Order. This sets up an opportunity for Ridley to reprise the role. The Disney+ world is exploring more ways to expand the narrative, and it would be interesting to see Rey’s version of the Jedi Order.
