Daisy Ridley to lead spy film A Woman Of No Importance
David Crow Jan 25, 2017
Star Wars actor Daisy Ridley will lead in Paramount and Bad Robot's spy biopic, A Woman of No Importance.
Daisy Ridley may or may not be the eponymous character of Star Wars: The Last Jedi, but she's already looking past that film for leading projects not in that galaxy far, far away. Indeed, Ridley will next be seen in Kenneth Branagh’s Murder On The Orient Express remake, and she now has landed a star vehicle at Paramount based on the real-life spy Virginia Hall. Somehow, we expect the title A Woman Of No Importance is intentionally misleading in more than one way.
The film is based on a biography of the same name by Sonia Purnell and chronicles Hall’s life as an American heiress who, after losing her leg in a hunting accident, is rejected from working for the American Foreign Service in the early 20th century.
