Daisy Ridley may be best known for her role as Rey in the Star Wars sequel trilogy, but in the years since The Force Awakens, she’s been able to show her range goes to the Outer Rim and back. She’s played a reimagined Shakespearean heroine in Ophelia, a determined swimmer in The Young Woman and the Sea, and a dystopian anomaly in Chaos Walking.
Now, she’s trying her hand at action with Cleaner, an action movie that asks the question “What if Die Hard, but John McClane is a badass female window cleaner?” The comparison isn’t lost on Ridley. “I called it Dry Shard because we were supposed to be on the Shard,” Ridley tells Inverse, referring to the iconic building in the London skyline.
