Daisy Ridley Wants to Play Spider-Woman in Sony-Marvel's Extended Spider-Man Universe
In an interview with USA Today author Sariah Wilson, Daisy Ridley expressed interested in playing Jessica Drew/Spider-Woman in the MCU or Sony depending which route they go, after being heavily fancast for years online.
After asking if Spider-Woman is part of "an extended Spider-Verse thing," Ridley said she would "for sure".
RUMOR: Kevin Feige is Interested in a New Deal with Sony for 'Spider-Woman' in the MCU - MCUExchange There's also this rumor from March of 2020, that Marvel Studios and Kevin Feige were interested and having discussions with Sony to include Spider-Woman and her solo movie in the MCU, much like with Spider-Man.
What do you guys think, is Daisy Ridley a good choice for the role ?

I could totally see this happening. She's perfect age and face for it. Not to mention she's rather athletic. I could see her slaying that role.

Would be a solid choice, approve of this thinking.

Meh. Rey was fine but she didn't wow me. Could do worse, but could also do better

Eh, Daisy Ridley was perfectly fine in the only other thing I've seen her in ( Murder on the Orient Express ), so as long as she gets better writing and directing than in the Sequel Trilogy, she would be fine.

Sure , she'd be good. I don't know the Spiderwoman character all that well, but I think Daisy could do it.
I actually think she could make a good Sue Storm if they want to go for a 20 something version

She's already good at playing a variation of a Clone.

I think I like Rey mostly due to Ridley. To me, she makes the character better than what she probably was on page. It's not a particularly well written character, but I do enjoy seeing her on screen. I don't know how much talent and range she has but I do find her charismatic.

This... she gave a pretty blank character a lot of hope, quirks, and honest depth. None of that was on the page.

Yeah she's definitely not a natural blonde. I'm tired of Sue looking like her hair is another person. Jessica is fine but Sue needs an actual blonde

Has Amanda Seyfried done anything lately? She'd make a good Sue if they want her closer to Reed's age.

Reaction to casting idea or the pic or...?
After consulting with counsel, I have no clear recollection of the events leading up to and including that post.

I'd prefer someone else for Jessica Drew. Daisy Ridley is too bland. They definitely need someone with Elizabeth Olsen-level acting.

I like that she’s interested. I don’t know who’d be best but I wouldn’t complain if Ridley was cast.

She was just in Mank but that was the first time I'd seen her lately.

Star Wars' Daisy Ridley Reacts To Marvel Casting Rumors
“Well, it's funny because someone asked me off the cuff about the Spider-Woman rumours recently, and I went, 'Oh, that sounds great.' Apparently, I've now declared myself a front-runner to be Spider-Woman which isn't true!. It's funny because I don't really choose things... I [didn't] set out to do another 'big film.' I just read the script, loved it, and loved the idea of it.”
lol she could tell this to her grandma, but I don’t believe one word of it.
I bet, there are only a few actors now, who would decline an MCU offer...and Daisy Ridley isn’t the kind of actress who would say: only if I love the script (most of the scripts are way better, than the last SW scripts, though)

That's not at all what she said. When referring to the script, she was talking about Chaos Walking.

Spider-Woman or not, I hope she gets some big role in a CBM.
