Daisy Ridley can’t catch a break at the Star Wars

It would be forgiven for not noticing, but Daisy Ridley, about the glory of “Star Wars”, came a new movie at the cinema last weekend. Really Because the director Oz Perkins “Adaptation Stephen King” “Monkey” crushed her And “Captain America: The brave new world” Marvel “the purifier once again headed the hit -parade, the” purifier “came with virtually no fanfare. This is even more surprising when we consider the fact that Casino director Martin Campbell was at the helm. However, it doesn’t make it less true.

The Distribution Distriving “Distriving” debuted only 378 screens in the United States, taking just $ 426,150, which made just over $ 1,100 on the screen. In the coming weeks, it will be lucky to hold on a few screens, which means that it will be lucky to clear $ 1 million at the inside. It’s … not good.

The film focuses on a group of radical activists who accept the annual solemn action of the energy company, taking 300 hostages in the process. The extremist in his ranks quickly reports himself and he is ready to kill everyone in the building to send his message to the world. Meanwhile, the former soldier has turned into a window cleaner (Ridley) was summed up by 50 stories outside the building, and he was very instructed to save everyone inside.

Worse, it’s just the last one in the string of small films, which essentially did not go anywhere for Ridley. Following Star Wars: Skywalker’s rise earned $ 1 billion in 2019There was a world in front of Ridley. Rredley undoubtedly mixed, the reaction to the continuation, undoubtedly put itself as a big star.

Unfortunately all that came out since was worse A famous movie that virtually no one saw “sometimes I think of death.” Even something seemingly more commercial, for example, a thriller “Daughter Marsh -King”, threw up with less than $ 3 million worldwide. The only thing is that the “Star Wars” came to the name of Ridley, “Peter Rabbit 2: Escape,” and it was work. This is not her significant screen time.

All this is very sorry in a small part because “Cleaner”, on paper, and when Ridley talked about it, it sounded strange. For what it is worth, critics were mixed on the movie because it sits 50% on Rotten Tomatoes. However, did it deserve a fair crack? What is even more important, does Ridley not deserve better?

So how’s it going? As an actor who led the continuation of the Star Wars, how to consider himself at the end of such lines? Will Ridley consider them creatively firefighters, this is another conversation, but it is impossible to argue with the results. Is it only a shrid make a purely creative choice that does not decrease? Does she have a difficult time ordering the best job? Is this a problem with its representatives? Now we have more questions than answers. One can only hope that this is just a rough strip that will be broken earlier than later.
