  • There’s a reason John Williams has said he made Rey’s Theme for Daisy Ridley after getting to know her. She is like sunshine incarnate.
  • @themusicsweetly
    Adam Driver was 10000% correct saying he could listen to Daisy speak all day. So, so excited for all her projects. She deserves nothing but success!!
  • @benrosn8154
    Daisy Ridley is brilliant, no one can take that away from her
  • "It's upsetting because you don't want people to feel you've not served the thing that they're a fan of." (28:02) That's such a lovely sentiment. However, I sincerely feel that Daisy did a truly amazing job of serving the fans. The thing that let it all down was the writing and direction. Daisy was great! Also, feeling exactly the same about Gary Oldman's comments on Sirius.

    This woman is literally pure sunshine! Daisy Ridley is so incredibly talented. As a die hard Star Wars fan, I'm so stoked for her to reprise her role as Rey.
  • @ericarchie7426
    How can anyone hate this woman she's lovely, charming and beautiful; and that voice is just incredible and hypnotizing.❤
  • @Roddrummer
    I personally am utterly immune to what I call the 'bandwagon/sheep mentality hate' around Star Wars, I LOVE the sequels, and I CANNOT WAIT for the return of Rey and the Jedi new order.
  • @darknexus6720
    She's a very charismatic individual and seems like a talented performer, hope she gets bigger gigs outside of Star Wars! I wouldn't mind seeing her play a comic book character, but that seems unlikely to happen at this time.?
  • I hope Daisy realizes that there are so so so many of us who adore both her and Rey and absolutely love the Sequel Trilogy. Rey means everything to me and I'm so excited to have her back in the new film 💛
  • @Piewalkermatt
    Finally, a normal conversation! You guys are indeed real people. Thank god.
  • @DevonVanNote
    Josh what a great discussion this was. Fantastic job! You can tell how at ease Daisy was. She's just got the best attitude! I am excited to see Sometimes I Think About Dying and for her return as Rey. Although I didn't love every single SW sequel, I never once felt like Daisy wasn't giving it her all. Her enthusiasm in The Force Awakens is what made that movie for me.
  • @pyfutura07
    I really appreciate Daisy. Star Wars really stepped on her personality as an actress. Never had an issue with the cast, just the plot.
  • @user-qx4ic4db4f
    Daisy seems such a lovely person and you can tell how proud she is to be part of SW. I hope she returns to future films. I wanted to see her with the Darth Maul sabre. That was super cool. Suits her style because she carries a staff in the first film. A good Jedi twin sabre wheelder. Vovovovooo! 💙😁💙

    I do love Force Awakens but I love her performance in Only Yesterday as well.
