“Daisy Ridley: “Women’s Health”


Take a look at actress Daisy Ridley aka 'Rey' from "Star Wars: The Last Jedi", posing for “Women’s Health” magazine, wearing Norma Kamali, Pascale Monvoisin, Pamela Love and a whole lot more, photographed by Jonny Marlow:


"...I was actually sacked from my first job," said Ridley. "It was at a workshop for a short film this poet had written, about when she used to work in a strip club. After the first week, I was told not to come back.

 
"Then I auditioned for this agency. I got an advertisement first, and then something else, which I got fired from. It was soul-destroying. And then the next thing I got, I thought was going to be my big break, and they cut the role. 


"It was only the year that I started auditioning for 'Star Wars' when I really started getting roles. 


"I wasn't trying to fit into a thing... it was not like I was like, 'Right, I'm the 'Han'. I'm the 'Leia. I'm the 'Luke'.' 


“I was just like, 'Okay. I'm 'Rey', just trying to do me, just trying to do this scene, trying to do the right thing,' and I think that was a huge advantage because I think if not, it would've been a very different thing.”
