Daisy Ridley says the question about Rey’s parents will be definitively answered in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

July 3, 2019 by Samuel Brace

Daisy Ridley, who stars as Rey in the upcoming Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, has revealed that the film will definitively answer the question of who Rey’s parents are.

One of the big mysteries in the sequel trilogy of Star Wars films has been the identity of Rey’s parents, with much speculation being thrown around online.

In Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Rey was told that it didn’t matter who her parents were but now actress Daisy Ridley has told USA Today that concrete details will soon be revealed in Episode IX: “[Director J.J. Abrams] did say the question is answered. So at the end of the film, you do know what the dealio is.”

Ridley has also commented on what fans can expect from the film as a whole in comparison to the previous two episodes: “Genre-wise, it’s different from the other two, which will become clear when the film comes out. It’s quite emotional. There’s a different drive than the previous two films, but there’s a lot of fun. I really missed John [Boyega] during the last one, but we’re back together and now Oscar [Isaac] is part of it. To me, it felt like kids going on an adventure.”

We will have to wait and see just what Episode IX has in store for us this December.

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is set for release on December 20th 2019 with J.J. Abrams (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) directing a cast that includes Star Wars veterans Daisy Ridley (Rey), Adam Driver (Kylo Ren), John Boyega (Finn), Oscar Isaac (Poe Dameron), Lupita Nyong’o (Maz Kanata), Domhnall Gleeson (General Hux), Kelly Marie Tran (Rose Tico), Joonas Suotamo (Chewbacca), Billie Lourd (Lieutenant Connix), Greg Grunberg (Snap Wexley), Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker), Anthony Daniels (C-3PO), Billy Dee Williams (Lando Calrissian) and Carrie Fisher (Leia Organa) as well as new additions Naomi Ackie (Lady Mabeth), Richard E. Grant (Logan), Dominic Monaghan (Lost), and Keri Russell (The Americans).
