She is the youngest of three daughters born to Louise Fawkner - Corbett, a banker, and Christopher Ridley, a photographer. She has two older sisters, Kika Rose and Poppy Sophia. Her mother 's family, the Fawkner - Corbetts, were landed gentry with a military and medical background. Her great - uncle was Dad 's Army actor and playwright Arnold Ridley. While growing up, her favourite film was Matilda ( 1996 ), an adaptation of Roald Dahl 's children 's story, with the title character ( played by Mara Wilson in the film ) a role model to her. Ridley won a scholarship to Tring Park School for the Performing Arts in Hertfordshire, which she attended between the ages of 9 and 18. She then began reading classical civilisation at Birkbeck, University of London, before dropping out to concentrate on her acting career. Prior to being cast in The Force Awakens, Ridley worked as a bartender in two different pubs in London for nearly two years.

In April 2014, Ridley 's casting as Rey, one of the lead characters in Star Wars : The Force Awakens, was announced. She was chosen for the film in February 2014. At the time of her casting she was, according to Rolling Stone, a `` total unknown. '' Her choice by director J.J.

Ridley began filming her scenes in May 2014 at Pinewood Studios in Buckinghamshire, and prior to the film 's release in December 2015, she appeared at the launch of a set of Star Wars postage stamps issued by the UK postal service Royal Mail, with her character Rey featuring on a stamp along with the droid BB - 8. With international revenues of over $2 billion, The Force Awakens was a major box - office hit and the highest - grossing film of 2015. After an early screening of the film, Brian Viner of the Daily Mail called Ridley the `` real star of the show '', adding that her performance as Rey should `` send her career into orbit. '' Her performance received critical acclaim, with Richard Roeper describing her portrayal as `` a breakout performance '' and adding `` Ford has a terrific father figure chemistry ( shared ) with Ridley and ( John ) Boyega ''. 2016 -- present : after the Force Awakens Ridley became executive producer of the documentary The Eagle Huntress in January 2016. Director Otto Bell said of her commitment, `` Like so many other theatergoers around the world, I was blown away by Daisy 's recent portrayal of an empowered female protagonist. I 'm thrilled she 'll be bringing that same energy to supporting a real - world heroine who is also on an epic journey to win victory in a far away land. '' The movie premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on 24 January 2016, with Ridley narrating. She was one of several actors featured on Barbra Streisand 's 2016 album Encore : Movie Partners Sing Broadway.

In August 2016, after receiving criticism for posting an anti-gun violence message on her Instagram account, Ridley deleted her Instagram account. The actress briefly returned to Instagram and said that the reason behind the deletion was because she had `` a busy few months ahead and ( so ) wanted less distractions.
