Daisy Ridley Remembers Carrie Fisher & Slips 'The Last Jedi' Spoiler

Daisy Ridley Remembers Carrie Fisher & Slips 'The Last Jedi' Spoiler

To promote Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Daisy Ridley, who plays the heroine of the second installment of the sequel trilogy, shared her memories of working with the late Carrie Fisher and might've given a spoiler.


Hollywood mourned the loss of the iconic actress a year ago. Her presence onscreen was as grand as her persona off-screen, and the void she left in the industry and our hearts continue being felt. The Last Jedi will mark Fisher's last appearance on screen as Princess Leia Organa, and while fans are anxious for the film's upcoming release, it will also be a tearful goodbye.

Ridley, who plays the Jakku scavenger, shared a final, emotional memory from her onset experience working with Fisher. "She always took care of me," she said of Fisher's nurturing relationship on set.

However, in the process of reflecting on her special moment in an interview with Glamour, she inadvertently mentioned what some interpreted to be a spoiler for the film. You've been warned.

She told Glamour Magazine for its January issue:

The last thing Carrie and I filmed together was emotional for a variety of reasons. It’s the end of the film, and all of this crazy stuff has happened. There’s this moment that we share, and thinking about it now, I realize that it’s going to be really hard to watch. Because it will seem like a goodbye, even though it wasn’t at the time. You know, she and I went through a similar thing at different times [as Star Wars heroes]. She had the most insane life.

What we now know is that somehow, Rey and Leia will be together during the final scenes of Last Jedi, but we're not sure of under what circumstance, although "crazy stuff" went down.

Ridley also teased us about her thoughts on the movie. She told Good Morning America, "I was more surprised with this one."

The thing about this is ... the lines are less clear as to, like, good and bad. Rey is trying to find out about herself and about the universe, and those questions don't entirely fall to the good, nor do they entirely fall to the bad. She's trying to do her own sort of personal growth, and I think what's amazing is the end of the film — however that does end — it's more rich. 'Cause ... if it's always good, the outcome isn't as important as it might be if ... you know ... there's lines.

The actress also confirmed reports that Rey will be leaving the Star Wars franchise by Star Wars: Episode IX. She told BBC:

When I did sign up, I did sign up for three films and that’s where I sort of saw the story ending. I think everyone has perhaps taken that as me going, ‘I don’t want anything to do with it’ which is vastly untrue because this is awesome.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi is set for a December 15 release date.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
