Related Topics: Daisy Ridley, Rey

Daisy Ridley studied mixed martial arts fights for her role in the upcoming British action flick Cleaner.

Best known for her role as Rey in the Star Wars sequel trilogy, Ridley will return to her action roots in 2025 as Joey, a skyscraper window cleaner who battles terrorists who have taken over an office building in London. Of course, Ridley’s character is not any ordinary window cleaner. She’s also an ex-soldier with a particular set of skills that make her a nightmare for people like the film’s main villain, played by the always-intense Clive Owen.
