Daisy Ridley Star Wars: Takes Rey On ‘Jedi Academy’ Adventure Says Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy
'Team is really taking time to make sure that we do justice to telling the story.'

Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, who has been tasked by Kathleen Kennedy to helm the new Daisy Ridley Star Wars movie, rumored titled “A New Beginning,” talks about the film and offers it takes Rey on a Jedi Academy adventure.

In a recent interview with SiriusXM, Obaid-Chinoy shared her excitement and vision for the project.

“This world that they want young viewers to sort of walk into and have an understanding of the world, at the heart of it, for me, is Rey Skywalker,” Obaid-Chinoy said. “It’s Daisy Ridley and her story, and taking her on an adventure to a Jedi Academy, and sort of creating a world that is a natural dovetail to the story that we’ve seen her go through in the last three episodes.”

Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy says she is working closely with Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy, Dave Filoni, and the creative team, and has even talked with George Lucas, to focus on bringing the characters “that everyone loves and has fallen in love with” to life while introducing new ones for the next generation.
