Daisy Ridley

Daisy Ridley - a young talented Hollywood actress of British origin. The world learned about her acting talent after she starred in the seventh film of the cult sci-fi franchise "Star Wars". Yet Ray's role in the blockbuster J. J. Abrams is not the first in the cinematic biography of Daisy Ridley: she starred in dozens of films, was engaged in voiceover cartoons and appeared in music videos.

Daisy Ridley was born in London, in the historic centre of the city - the district of Westminster. The future star of the screen was born on April 10, 1992. She is patronized by the sign of the zodiac Aries. Chris Ridley's father is a professional photographer and was 52 at the time Daisy was born. Mother Louise Fawkner-Corbett works in the field of intra-office communication, in one of the central London banks.

Daisy is the youngest of Louise and Chris's children. The older sisters' names are Kika-Rose and Poppy. The father also has two daughters from his first marriage who are the half-sisters of the girls. The Ridley family has its own celebrity. The sisters' great-uncle, Arnold Ridley, was a well-known actor for the popular British television series "Daddy's Army."

Ridley went not to a comprehensive school, but to a special is the choreographic school at The Tring Park School of Performing Arts in Hertfordshire, which she graduated from in 2010. Before school, the girl was a naughty, mischievous child, but in "Tring Park" she was able to captivate with dance and other arts, as well as make much more disciplined.

After receiving her maturity certificate, she traveled the world for 2 years, lived in India, and then decided to realize herself in an acting career. As the screen star later recalled, her first role was a character in a small video advertising a meat-filling pie.

As an actress, Daisy Ridley made her debut in 2013 in three television sitcoms and several movies. She has starred in the television series Catastrophe, Spana and Toast from London. She has also been featured in the short films "The Rescuer," "Blue Season," "100% Beef" and "The Tangled Wires." The first two works were nominated for the British Academy of Motion Picture Arts award.

In 2013, Daisy starred in a music video for rapper Wylie on "Lights On".

The following year, the actress appeared in two episodes of the detective series Silent Witness and one of the series of the television melodrama "Mr. Selfridge". She also starred in the British comedy Overgrown 2, but all the scenes with her participation were cut. Then came the teenage "horror" "Karakuli" in which the actress played one of the main roles. Ridley combined her involvement in the filming of tv films with work in a London pub, where she served as a waitress.

In the spring of 2014, the press reported that director J.J. Abrams, filming a sequel to the legendary fantasy saga "Star Wars: The Force Awakens", decided to repeat the creative move of George Lucas and invited to key roles in the new episode only little-known to the general public actors.

To do this, he arranged large-scale auditions among novice performers. Ridley successfully passed all the castings and played one of the central roles - a new character Ray, around which the plot of the film will be built. Artists John Boyega, Oscar Isaac and Adam Driver appeared on screen with her.

As Daisy later recalled, by the time she was involved in the creation of the fantastic blockbuster, her creative biography had developed without much success. The girl is so used to failures that at the casting in "Star Wars" behaved insecurely, not hoping that she will be chosen.

Ridley's heroine caused a stir among fans. First, Star Wars fans focused on the character's field. During the first two trilogy, the main characters of the saga were men. Ray's appearance changed that trend. So while some of the audience claimed that the female character "spoiled their childhood memories," another rejoiced at the restoration of justice and the emergence of a new role model for girls.

In addition, since the film is the first part of the trilogy, "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" laid down a number of questions about the character. For example, who were Ray's parents, whether the girl has The Force and others. These innuendo sparked controversy and various fan theories.

For her part in the filming of the "Star Wars" episode, Ridley received four nominations for the 2016 MTV Movie Awards, including best fight (paired with the hero Adam Driver), and won one of them - "Breakthrough of the Year." The film itself was a success - with a budget of $245 million, box office fees exceeded $2 billion.

In 2015, the actress voiced the cartoon character Hannah in the English feature-length animated film "Scrawl" by Peter Hearn. Cartoon created in the genre of horror and fantasy.

Daisy's acting career is closely related to Star Wars. Daisy Ridley voices Ray in the animated series Star Wars: The Force Awakens, July 3, 2017.

The actress also played in the 8th episode of Star Wars, which was released in 2017. Episode VIII: The Last Jedi." The film was a direct continuation of previous films and the second part of the newest trilogy.

The difficulty in shooting the new film represented technical and ethical moments. After fans learned of the death of American actress Carrie Fisher, who died on December 27, 2016, the fan community was divided. Some expected the appearance of Princess Leia in the second and third films of the trilogy in the form of computer graphics, others assured that the heroine Fisher will be left behind the scenes.

The film takes place immediately after the events of "The Force Awakens." Ray goes in search of the last surviving Jedi Luke (Mark Hamill) to learn how to control the Force and restore balance and justice in the galaxy.

Thanks to the star role, the popular actress began to get on the pages of the media - in 2017 she starred in a photo shoot for Vogue magazine, a photo of Ridley appeared on the cover of the publication. Also, readers of Gloss V Magazine, Elle and Hollywood Reporter could admire Daisy's pictures.

The artist receives a number of offers about filming and other pictures. In 2017, another film with Daisy - "Murder on the Orient Express" directed by Kenneth Branagh based on the novel of the same name by Agatha Christie. The film tells about the investigation of the famous Belgian detective Herkyul Poirot. Ridley played the role of governess Mary Debenham, a passenger on the train where the crime was committed. The ensemble's acting ensemble shone with its stardom. The film stars Penelope Cruz, Judi Dench, Johnny Depp, Michelle Pfeiffer and others.

In addition, in 2018, the actress voiced a character in the family cartoon "Peter Rabbit" and also appeared in the drama "Ophelia", a picture based on Shakespeare's famous play "Hamlet", but presented from the point of view of Hamlet's fiancee - Ophelia.

Daisy Ridley has such a busy working schedule that she does not even think about her personal life. For dinner in restaurants, the actress goes either alone or accompanied by female colleagues, which was repeatedly confirmed by tireless paparazzi.

However, in 2016, the artist was spotted in the company of colleague Charlie Humblet. It was rumored that Daisy and her boyfriend even lit up in the jewelry store, where they picked up wedding rings. But reports about the upcoming wedding fans of the artist did not wait: Charlie did not become the official husband of Ridley, their romance ended.

In the summer of 2016, Daisy deleted her Instagram page. The actress has previously supported a social campaign against gun violence and violence. Subscribers and other users of the platform flooded the actress with negative comments, where they accused the performer of sentimentality, hypocrisy and duplicity.

According to commentators, the artist plays a major role in the franchise, where violence, fights and shootings - the main way to solve conflicts and issues. That's why her performance against it on Instagram, while Ridley signed a contract to continue filming in Star Wars, where the actress's heroine doesn't shy away from using violence, angered even fans of the franchise.

Daisy didn't tolerate the torrent of negativity and deleted the page. The actress later reinstated her to write thanks to those who supported the girl, and again deleted the account.

Another reason Ridley doesn't like social media is to criticize her figure. Often on the page of the artist appeared comments about the excessive thinness of Daisy, which she showed in photos in a swimsuit. At 170 cm tall, it weighs less than 55 kg. Subscribers reproached the star of the screen that it adversely affects teenage girls, who to achieve the ideal use rigid diets and spoil health.

Despite the fact that most of the time the celebrity spends in Hollywood, working on the creation of new pictures, her home remains a rainy London. The girl likes to return to her native places after the shooting. In addition to her family, here she is waiting for a pet - a blind dog Muffin.

The actress is currently working on the 9th episode of Star Wars, which will be released in late 2019. Daisy previously said in an interview that this part would be her last appearance in the popular franchise.

Soon the filmography of the artist was supplemented by another new project - the adventure film "The Step of Chaos." Ridley will play the heroine, the only woman in the world of men haunted by the ubiquitous "Noise." The release date of this picture is still open.
