Daisy Ridley Star Wars Salary for New Rey Skywalker Movie Revealed
A new report about how much will be making for starring in the upcoming Rey Skywalker Star Wars movie has come out, and it sounds like quite a sizeable figure.
At The InSneider (subscription required but encouraged), insider Jeff Sneider reported that, according to his sources, Ridley will be making $12.5 million for starring in Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy’s upcoming Star Wars film. Sneider notes that it’s an “eye-popping” figure that’s above her normal quote, but that that amount is what was required to bring back the star of the most recent films in the franchise.
The Rey-focused movie is being directed by Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy (Ms. Marvel) and written by Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight. It will star Daisy Ridley as Rey Skywalker, who last appeared in Star Wars: The Rise of the Skywalker, which she described as her favorite filming experience.
As of now, the last Star Wars film released in theaters was also 2019’s The Rise of Skywalker. The film grossed over $1 billion at the worldwide box office, but the final installment in the sequel trilogy was the lowest-growing and received mixed reviews from fans and critics.
