Footage from Daisy Ridleys emotional audition for Star Wars: The Force Awakens is available to watch in a preview clip froma documentary that willappearon theupcoming DVD release.
Director J.J. Abrams tasked the relatively unknown actress with reading from a difficult scene in whichKylo Ren (Adam Driver) interrogates and tortures Ridleys character, Rey. Not only was Ridley able to channel a visceral combination of anger and fear on command she did it multiple times as Abrams gave her notes.
She just blew my mind, Abrams said. Shes reaching this depth of struggle and tears are streaming down her face, I thought, This is unbelievable.'
The Force Awakensarrives on DVD and Blu-ray April 5th. The home editions boast a bevy of bonus features, including deleted scenes and a documentary chronicling the making of the film. Featurettes on the first Force Awakens table read, the making of BB-8 and other new creatures and an in-depth look at the climactic lightsaber fight between Rey and Kylo Ren will also be available.
Production on the follow-upto The Force Awakens began in February with Rian Johnson directing the as-yet-untitled Episode VIII. Per Entertainment WeeklyDriver spoke about the directorial change at a screening of his new movie, Midnight Special.
Their temperaments are different, Driver said of Abrams and Johnson. I feel like there was so many moving pieces in the first one just trying to solve it and set the vocabulary for what it was. Theres a lot of that anxiety thats gone, because people have developed a language. I think its more of a testament to Rian coming into something very established and making it [his own]. I cant wait to get on set, just because hes so unassuming and intelligent and approachable. The script theyve come up with is really great.
