    Rey actress Daisy Ridley has revealed that she recently had lunch at Lucasfilm. While she denies that there are new plans in place, she did take a moment to reminisce about the filming of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and its subsequent press tour.



    Daisy Ridley shared a couple of interesting images on her Instagram via a pair of stories (hat tip r/StarWarsLeaks). The first of these revealed that she recently stopped by Lucasfilm in San Francisco, California. She shared a picture of the interior of their offices, showcasing part of a painting of a matte from The Empire Strikes Back alongside a statue of Yoda.

    The Instagram story from Daisy Ridley naturally sparked fan speculation about the possibility of her returning to the role of Rey sooner rather than later. However, a few hours later, she added a bit of clarity by claiming that this meeting followed a lunch with the studio. She noted that the occasion happened about three years after she and her co-stars from Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Kelly Marie Tran, Keri Russell, Naomie Ackie, and Anthony Daniels) and director, producer, and co-writer J. J. Abrams got to ride an exclusive preview of the Rise of the Resistance attraction at the Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge expansion in Disneyland.

    What's worth noting is that it has been rumored that this meeting isn't necessarily the only one that's happened between her and Lucasfilm after the release of The Rise of Skywalker. It has been rumored some of her co-stars from the sequel trilogy have had additional discussions with the studio. These discussions do not necessarily mean that Daisy Ridley or anyone else involved could be committing to future appearances for Star Wars, as there are other projects at Lucasfilm that talent may be interested in, and it's just as possible that the lunch meeting was nothing more than a lunch meeting. Nonetheless, it provides interesting food for thought as we wait for the next batch of movies and shows. Speaking of which, one such project is indicated to be set after the events of the sequels and may feature characters from those films, so we'll have to see if there was more to this meeting than meets the eye...

    Baloney! And no that's not what they had for lunch.

    As much as I would love to believe that all Star Wars alum randomly pop back in to visit Skywalker Ranch or Lucasfilm, there surely was a reason for it. These people are too busy to "just have lunch" .....

    .....and that makes me very happy and excited. :D

    I wonder what she thought of the soup. [insert tenuous Adam Driver "good soup" meme]

    Interesting that of all the TROS cast who 'got to ride the Rise of the Resistance' attraction...Adam Driver and also Domnhall Gleeson were conspicuous by their absence. I guess it was good guys only.

    They're also both dead so it's highly unlikely they'll have much of a role to play. I guess Ben could appear as a force ghost, but that's not much of a part to play.

    I hope there is something to this (and related rumors over the past year or so). I'd love to see the story continue past the Skywalker bloodline, with blank slates and a new beginning for Rey and Chewie and BB-8 and Rose and Finn and C3PO and R2D2 and Poe and all the rest (or at least some of them). I for one can't wait! :D

    I...don't think Rose will be playing a major part in this, sadly, as she was hardly there in TROS. I like Kelly Tran.

    Yeah, you're right. Don't think I'll be booking any tickets for whatever they are going to do with SW in the near future. Never mind.
