Whether Rey is a true “Skywalker” or ultimately surrenders to the dark side of The Force is the biggest question to answer regarding Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. That said, having The Force Awakens band back together was also a big deal for Daisy Ridley.
“For us, it was really important – me, John and Oscar – that we were together on this journey, said Ridley. “I just feel like you feel that.

Whatever side it is, you want to be part of it and the way you’re written you really feel a part of it as an audience member.”
