Rey fans were overjoyed when, a few years back, Daisy Ridley<\/a>\u2019s standalone Star Wars<\/a> movie was announced. The feature, tentatively titled New Jedi Order<\/a>, is helmed by Ms. Marvel<\/a> vet Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy and promises a continuation of Rey\u2019s story after The Rise of Skywalker<\/a>. As fans patiently wait, the movie has given a few promising updates, with development still in progress. But Ridley recently discussed the film in a new interview, providing an update on the fan-favorite character.<\/p>\n

Ridley is involved<\/a> in crafting the story of the upcoming feature, recently describing the experience of stepping back into Rey\u2019s shoes as \u201cinteresting,\u201d to ComicBook<\/a> in a new conversation. Adding, \u201cI am six years older. I am in a different moment.\u201d She further teased, \u201cI think the story will be wonderful. I think the wait will be worthwhile. I think it will be a discovery, as all roles are, of where Rey is when we meet her again.\u201d While updates for the movie have gone rather cold, Ridley\u2019s comments point in a direction where, behind the scenes, wheels are slowly and steadily rolling. She previously assured Collider\u2019s Maggie Lovitt<\/a>, \u201cThere\u2019s always movement,\u201d she said, \u201cbut the movement is at the right pace, because the best things are worth the wait.\u201d<\/p>\n

What\u2019s Happening With Other \u2018Star Wars\u2019 Movies?<\/p>\n

Disney\u2019s next big screen offering is The Mandalorian and Grogu<\/a>, which will bring back Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal<\/a>) and baby Yoda to the big screen alongside The Bear\u2019s Jeremy Allen White<\/a>, Avatar\u2019s Sigourney Weaver<\/a>, and many more. It remains to be seen what turns the fan-favorite duo\u2019s story takes next in the Jon Favreau<\/a>-directed feature, but it\u2019ll certainly see Grogu\u2019s evolving powers<\/a> while Din fights off some new adversaries. The movie is set to be released this May.<\/p>\n

Then there\u2019s Shawn Levy<\/a>\u2019s Starfighter movie that brings Ryan Gosling<\/a> to the galaxy far far away. The story is set five years after The Rise of Skywalker, and will explore a new realm for the franchise. The director previously shared a glimpse of the actor on set<\/a>. The film wrapped production in December 2025, giving post-production enough time to polish things off before the 2027 release. The ensemble also includes Amy Adams<\/a>, Matt Smith<\/a>, Mia Goth<\/a>, Aaron Pierre, and Daniel Ings.<\/p>\n

For now, though, fans can check out The Mandalorian and Grogu series on Disney+ along with other Star Wars projects. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates on the upcoming New Jedi Order movie.<\/p>\n
