Ridley battled intense anxiety during the release of ‘The Last Jedi,’ eventually leading to the development of holes in her gut.
I always felt bad for the whole cast, but Ridley especially. I’m not a giant fan of the sequels, but she did the best with what she was given, and in the hands of better writers/directors/execs I think it could’ve been a very different story for her and her character.
She has a lot of charisma as an actor and person, it was a shame it got wasted and then she took the brunt of the abuse from the toxic fans. A victim of the ego and greed of others.
Her, and Rose Marie Tran.
And it didn’t matter anyway, because the folks at Disney were going to fuck it up no matter how she did.
The point is that she was going to have to carry the can on that, regardless of what she did.
Fans being what fans are.
Daisy Ridley is far from making the list of things the sequels did poorly. She herself would be on the list of positives. JJ on the other hand…
It’s very sad that she people can’t separate the actors from a story. The actors very rarely have anything to do with the story on screen. The only thing they control is their performance.
I hope she pulls down some big roles that leave a more positive experience for her.
This Is a Religion for People
As opposed to a religion for droids?
