Daisy Ridley is certainly racking up the projects following her breakthrough last year in December’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
The British actress, who is currently shooting Star Wars: Episode VIII, recently signed on for the J.J. Abrams-produced fantasy thriller Kolma, and is also linked to the role of Lara Croft in the Tomb Raider reboot.
Now Variety is reporting that Ridley has signed on to star in The Lost Wife, a drama based upon Alyson Richman’s book, which “takes place in pre-war Prague, where Lenka, a talented art student, and Josef, her best friend’s older brother, fall madly in love — only to have their dreams shattered by the imminent Nazi invasion.”
As yet, there’s no director attached to The Lost Wife, but it is said that the project is seen as a priority and the producers are currently meeting with filmmakers.
