DEADLINE – Star Wars lead Daisy Ridley has been set to star in the movie adaptation of hit psychological-thriller novel The Marsh King’s Daughter, we can reveal.
Ridley will star as Helena, a woman living a seemingly ordinary life, but hiding a dark secret: her father is the infamous “Marsh King,” the man who kept her and her mother captive in the wilderness for years. After a lifetime of trying to escape her past, Helena is forced to face her demons when her father unexpectedly escapes from prison.

S MODA (translated by Daisy Ridley Daily, do not reproduce) – Daisy Ridley (London, 1992) radically changed her life on a quiet day in 2014, when she decided to audition to star in Star Wars Episode VII, The Force Awakens. Until that point, she had only landed a few supporting roles in minor projects in the UK and paid the rent by working as a waitress in a pub. The chances, therefore, of going from being a complete stranger to the protagonist of one of the highest-grossing films in history were minimal. However, director J. J. Abrams saw something in her that had gone completely unnoticed in the rest of the castings. There was something very particular about her and it was just what the role of Rey, the most important character in the third trilogy of the saga, needed. “I’m still surprised when I think about everything this character has given me,” she explains with a very strong British accent via Zoom, from her London home. Although it is impossible for the Star Wars universe to stop accompanying her wherever she goes – Carrie Fisher knew a lot about this, who could never completely separate herself from Princess Leia – now it is another science fiction story that brings her back to the big screen . This is Chaos Walking, a film based on the literary phenomenon for adolescents by author Patrick Ness, which will soon be released in Spain.
