Ridley also discusses her Star Wars future.
Summary Daisy Ridley is leading the charge both behind and in front of the camera with Magpie. The Star Wars alum has developed the story for the psychological thriller, with her husband and Based on a True Story star Tom Bateman penning the script based on her idea, marking both of their debuts on the writing side of filmmaking.
Daisy Ridley: I was working on a job in Canada with a little girl who was playing my daughter, she was amazing. The distinction was very clear that I was not her parent, but I was like, "This is so crazy for a child for 12 hours of the day is calling someone else 'Mommy,' and we're building this relationship, how crazy."
And, as Daisy said, I started at Daisy's idea to follow the actor who was infiltrating this family unit. But more and more, as I started to write, I became fascinated with this woman at home, this sort of quiet, unseen woman who just had this power and strength to keep this family together, given all of these things attacking her unit.
Similar question for you. You had to connect with the material. What did you find in this script that you really latched on to? This is, I think, two films in a row where you play a young mother. Are you entering your mom era on screen? What do you enjoy about playing a mother? For you guys in the back row. This film, genre wise, it's really dynamic, because it starts off like a family drama, and then the layers start coming off, and it turns into this psychological thriller. How did you guys go about balancing those tonal shifts that the film takes as it gets a little bit heavier and twistier along the way?
Daisy Ridley: Well, we had talked about Gone Girl. Tom and I watched Tully a few years ago and felt that the performances were unbelievable, of the stress of her trying to hold everything together. Homecoming was something we had referenced with the intense zooms. That's actually the very first time we spoke to Kate.
