Daisy Ridley gym workout/training for Star Wars: The Last Jedi

Daisy Ridley back in the gym training for Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi.

[@dandangalodangalus9082]

Her athleticism and physicality really make the character work. Can't wait for Episode 8.

[@IgorValar]

good to see she is taking her role so srsly... all respect to her devotion

[@Rimfaxe96]

That's because if she wouldn't Disney would have fired her just a week later.

[@IgorValar]

Rimfaxe96 more like she loves her role in SW u judge awfully quickly

[@Rimfaxe96]

IgorValar It's not judging, it's common sense. Her role in Star Wars is what helped her career take off, otherwise she'd still be doing barely-paid indie movies or take minor roles in TV shows (which is still better than most - the average actor's life is far away from any luxury at all). However, when asked in an interview about a role for Tomb Raider she quickly denied - why would she give this much effort for a role with little reach? Plus she doesn't want to be pinned for 'badass roles' (that's the only bad thing about her being the lead role in Star Wars - if her face is 'too known' she won't get more big jobs in the future; that happened to Mark Hamill). Most movie productions don't require their actors to work out you know.

[@raptorrodger]

+Rimfaxe96 nahh disney wouldnt fire her. If she signed a contract for more than one movie, she would have to finish that contract. Also I believe you've never met Daisy before in person , nor had a conversation with her about her life. How do you know she isn't doing this for her own health lifestyle? Not to mention its not like shes the first actor/actress who's gained muscle for a role before.

[@Rimfaxe96]

raptor rodger Why would I need to talk to her? I highly doubt she's one of those naively-trusting people who tell every single thing about their lives to strangers (and if she is, she should change that real quick - can be dangerous if she ends up talking to a stalker or some other crazy people). And you're just repeating what I've written in my upper comments - gaining muscle for a role. That's fine, it's almost standard these days. But saying that she's a sport lover? Please.

[@jackguest145]

She needs to get this strong to lift Mark Hamill on her back when Jedi training

[@jazzx251]

Oh God - maybe you're right! "I'm going to teach you just how Yoda taught me ..." Mark Hamill sits on her back while she's on the floor, and makes her do press ups! (I reckon Daisy could do it - at least 3!)

[@HJMEdits]

+Mai Nem Have you ever tried push ups with somebody won your back ? Let me tell you it's close to freaking impossible to do even one.

[@reyamidala8850]

+XxTheFrenchKillerxX I will readily agree to thay

[@reyamidala8850]

+Rey Amidala *that

[@jazzx251]

She has The Force - "tried" is not a word .. there is no "try". The Force is her ally - and a powerful ally it is.

[@jazzx251]

That stick stuff is definitely in the next movie - she's going to be an amazing Jedi knight. Can't wait! Mark Hamill was NEVER in this good a shape! Huffing and puffing with Yoda on your back is nothing compared to this!

[@reyamidala8850]

lol yep

[@jakobholgersson4400]

As much as I want her to become a greater jedi than Luke, I don't want Star Wars to turn into Dragon Ball, where every single new character is "the most powerful X in the history of the world".

[@jazzx251]

But .... if the actress portraying the character has done even more work than the character itself would have done, it's fair!

[@cpt_mrn]

she has a top level uk trainer helping her theres no way she did this before shooting and hamill mightve been outa shape but people in the 70s were a lot tougher than us trust me

[@cpt_mrn]

+Mai Nem dont get me wrong shes a bad chick but dont buy into the hollywood lie that this just her on her own disney payed for elite trainers and anyone would be in great shape if they had that budget

[@cartoon80s90s]

Damn, she is gorgeous.

[@tmcgill231]

This girl is going to be a beast! Looks like she doesn't even need a stunt double. 😀

[@Eldaino999]

2:04 a taste of whats to come in 8. Stoked.

[@thegend8533]

Dain Laguna or should you say, snoked.

[@g3user1usa]

Awesome bod. She should continue as a new Ripley in the Alien movie series. When I saw her moving about in SWTFA, I thought she moved really well in sequences but now I see how she did it. She's quite impressive.

[@nativenchristian]

Loved her drive and her playlist lol excited for Last of the Jedi

[@chriskehoe007]

she will be even better by the time the next movie comes out lol

[@DigitalChaoS]

Great form and work out regime

[@mariapaulasanchez5327]

when i was watching the video i was like "do squats!!" 😂

[@richardjoganah1871]

love to do workout with lovely daisy ridley ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@angbaci]

anyone know the song at 0:13 ?

[@movienaut]

Is it just me, or did Daisy get more muscle? Anyway, Im looking forward for the Last Jedi!

[@baremare1440]

The Emperor's daughter has skillz.

[@Re_senha]

More like Kenobi´s daughter has skillz.

[@leoshork]

Damn, you were almost right

[@mllcalayagmllc]

I see the next Lara Croft.

[@asprob00]

Miguel Luigi Calayag The swedish girl is The new lara craft she is Alicia wikander

[@Rimfaxe96]

They didn't want her as Lara Croft, sadly.

[@varric]

The only thing she don't have for making a good Lara Croft is a little more breast's size.

[@KishorTwist]

Alicia Vikander is not exactly a big-tittied woman.

[@Alphakobra24]

Gimlus yeah she would make a really good Lara Croft

[@GW2Vids1]

I love her! Where does she train?

[@BagoPorkRinds]

Phobos Productions That looks like a small gym at Pinewood studios.

[@TheLegendaryLoso]

When is she in the movie? Never seen Rey use a staff?

[@falrakthedoob1115]

she lifts more than you. Yeah you!

[@lytee3720]

Wow, iam impressed, she's an athlete :) she got the body ;)

[@putinscat1208]

@00:06, is that advisable? Seems like a good way to hurt the back.

[@dogico]

It's just a barbell row. A better variation is the Pendlay row but there's nothing wrong with that particular exercise.

[@putinscat1208]

dogico I worry someone will die.

[@dogico]

Nah it's a pretty safe movement. No more dangerous than a squat or pull up.

[@putinscat1208]

dogico A squat with weighs can be dangerous. I don't know why she wouldn't just do cardio. Why does she have to look buff?

[@athazel4585]

You act so damn dumb, Putin.

[@pedroalamak]

♥

[@benedictschurwanz987]

Holy fuckin hell

[@williamseneyjr.6277]

If only the writers and directors of the sequel trilogy had put this much work in.

[@BryonLape]

Steve Holman would be quite proud of the slow negatives in the reps. Now let her eat some protein.

[@darthmong7196]

I think she looked a little awkward running in TFA. 2:50 Already seeing a more relaxed running style, similar in form to a professional athlete - excellent knee lift and, using arms as levers efficiently. Good to see she's getting some good training in. Could this in itself be a spoiler?

[@Nineteen1900Hundred]

Oh, I was assuming all this footage is from before production on Force Awakens? Is this footage from pre production on Episode 8?

[@jazzx251]

Read the title of the video silly.

[@Nineteen1900Hundred]

***** That was not in the title when I watched this last month.

[@rolanjohnson9827]

She's tough I'll give her that.

[@tresjolieme81]

Damn girl go

[@dogico]

Hats off to her dedication to training but just once I'd love to see one of these celebrity trainers actually use heavy compound lifts for their female clients. It's always circuit stuff for women.

[@MasterofRandomness87]

damnnnnnn! she's stronger than I am!

[@CooperH10]

Those 14 people who disliked this video “I will show you the dark side”

[@BryonLape]

Better arms than Wonder Woman.

[@alienum77]

1:53 ayayay, girl!

[@lmfan3653]

I try to go to the gym 2 hours every weekday and I can't even do that 0:39

[@UndeadWolf23]

Why does she have bigger muscles than me😥 oh yea it's cuz she helps make awesome movies that keep me from working out every day! Lol

[@gameking4984]

A surprise to be sure But a welcome one

[@dimitri-petrenko]

Lol sick music taste!

[@RodCornholio]

Professionalism.

[@marcpain1324]

She is so beautiful.

[@Jimjon24]

DAYUM...

[@1darksoul786]

That explains Ophelia...🤔

[@VictorVonDoom.]

She is bae

[@wishmeluck4933]
