Rey has long since been poised as the Luke Skywalker replacement in the Star Wars episodic saga, but she's now becoming even more important.

I'm nervous for Ridley and for the character, and I hope that they deliver something great. There have been some great Star Wars projects over the last year, from The Mandalorian to Ahsoka to Andor, but will this creative team be able to bring that same amount of magic to a new franchise and make Rey the star she is supposed to be?

Film revolving around continued adventures of Daisy Ridley's character had shuffled screenwriters since it was first announced in April 2023

A common criticism of the recent trilogy is that the story or franchise lacks clear direction. That still seems to be the case; only Disney has become even more gun-shy since Rise Of Skywalker. Sadly, Star Wars is primarily a press release property now, but that may be the best form for it to take.

Disney appears to still be wandering in the wilderness when it comes to its plans for future Star Wars movies.

New Star Wars movies are reportedly betting big on Daisy Ridley's Rey Skywalker, and there's a simple reason why Lucasfilm wants her on board.

Star Wars has a brand-new trilogy in the works, and rumors about Rey Skywalker's role in the movies could spell trouble for the franchise.
