Daisy Ridley cried for 10 hours after seeing The Force Awakens

Daisy Ridley has revealed that she cried for an incredible 10 hours after watching Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

She previously posted a video of herself on Instagram sobbing at the trailer but now she has told Good Morning America how “overwhelmed” she was to actually see the film: “I came out [after the movie] and was like, ‘Yeah, I’m cool and then in the car I was like [makes a crying noise] the whole way, and then the whole way home – a 10-hour journey!

“It’s the first time I’ve ever really seen myself do something, so I was quite overwhelmed.”

You can see Daisy Ridley star as Rey when The Force Awakens hits UK cinemas on 17th December.
