Daisy Ridley’s “Star Wars” Audition Was So Powerful
No wonder she got the part.
We’ve all come to know and love Daisy Ridley as Rey, the scavenger from Jakku who has serious Jedi skills.
As you probably know already, she’s so strong with the Force that she’s able to out-mind-power Kylo Ren when he captures her and tries to read her thoughts. Remember? It’s AWESOME.
And as it turns out, that’s the scene Daisy Ridley read to win the role of Rey. Check out the footage of her audition below.
