Daisy Ridley ’s first raid into sci - fi?Pretty commodity . The next one?Not so much . Hopefully the third time will be the spell for theStar Wars doer as she ’s about to headlinea few movie phone Mind Fall .
Deadlinereports thatRey Skywalker herselfwill play a character named Ardis Varnado in the unexampled pic , which will be directed by Mathieu Kassovitz ( Amélie ) from a script by Graham Moore ( The Imitation Game ) . Ardis is a high-pitched - end drug dealer , only in this story the drug of choice is memory . In Mind Fall , other people ’s memory are the popular drug of the day , with masses sacrifice up theirs for scoop change and others paying top dollar to have brand new memories implanted in their promontory , which then ostensibly become their own . However , Ardis is finally accused of murdering one of her clients and when she begin to adjudicate and address the case , she realize not all of her memory are actually her own .
It ’s an interesting kink that seems to explore nostalgia , dependency , and more in a coolheaded sci - fi bundle . And , of course , Ridley knows her way around being the lead in a sci - fi film . That aforementioned first pic , of path , wasStar Wars : The Force Awakenswhere she played a mystical young pack rat make Rey . Over the path of three pic we discover that Rey is actually the granddaughter of the baddest man in the galaxy , Emperor Palpatine , though she chooses the way of life of the light side , vote down dear previous granddaddy , and becomes the dwell embodiment of the Jedi path .
After burying those lightsabers, Daisy Ridley will deal dreams.Image: Lucasfilm
While Ridley ’s performances were solid , the trilogy itself was a motley bag ( if only Mind Fall ’s drug could take away my memory ofThe Rise of Skywalker ) , and we do n’t have too many good things to say about Ridley ’s other maraud into sci - fi , Chaos Walking , co - starring Tom Holland . It ’s a well - conceived , butlong- turbulent filmthat terminate up being pretty cursedly boring , even under the eye of Edge of Tomorrow theater director Doug Liman . Nevertheless , Mind Fall sounds like it has a mass of potential with a a bit of a more adult sci - fi spin . Hopefully we ’ll have more news on it soon . The package is presently being sold at the American Film Market .
