The latest disappointing update on Daisy Ridley’s return in Star Wars: New Jedi Order may work to Lucasfilm’s favor, avoiding a major mistake and even boosting A New Hope‘s 50th anniversary celebrations. Just a few days ago, Daisy Ridley promised an exciting update on Lucasfilm’s “evolving” plans for her return. I admit, the last thing I expected after that comment was news that Peaky Blinders screenwriter Steven Knight had left the New Jedi Order film. And yet, despite this shocking news, Ridley herself seems positive – even hinting again at “imminent news” on the Happy, Sad, Confused podcast.
