UPDATE! Daisy Ridley’s Stunt Double is Headed to Dubrovnik!
Chloe Bruce, the stunt double of Daisy Ridley from The Force Awakens has just posted on Twitter that she is headed to Croatia. Of course there is no confirmation that her point of the visit is the Episode VIII set, but everyone would agree that this is hardly a coincidence…
On route to Croatia ✈️😊

This comes as a surprise since a few days ago Ridley herself revealed that she won’t be part of the Dubrovnik shoot.
It’s very likely that the close-up scenes, where Daisy is needed for the sequence in Dubrovnik to be shot at Pinewood Studios. They will probably use Chloe for some distance shots in Dubrovnik. It’s much cheaper this way, since you don’t drag around your main stars on foreign locations.
And there is yet another possibility – Chloe also might be a stunt double for one of the new female characters that we will be appearing in Episode VIII, but it’s unlikely.
If you’re not familiar with Chloe Bruce, here’s she with her favourite staff:
Thanks to Le Jedi Lorrain for the heads up.
UPDATE!
It appears that after our post Chloe has deleted her Tweet. You can still see the text above. I think we don’t need more confirmations on that. 🙂

Or it’s possible that bbc guy got played by Ridley. I mean what was she supposed to say?
Faux pas!
On a non-related note: Woke up to a seriously cruel joke – NO REBELS THIS WEEK…DAMN!!!
I know! My wife and I were excited for the next episode, especially after the last one.
I think Daisy Ridley will be heading to Croatia very soon as well.
Well, they lied to us a few times before, so… if daisy’s there I believe Mark Hamill might be there too….
I want one.
They come in packs of two.
I don’t think I can handle two…you guys are talking about the staff right? 😉
Nope 😉
No we’re not talking about the staff. You guys are doing a great job here.
YAY! That pretty much means that Rey is gonna be on that Dubrovnik planet.
Ok…Rey is going to so freakin’ awesome with a double bladed lightsaber (one can only hope). Now I really want to see her deflecting an array of blaster bolts by twirling that lightsaber around her neck. 🙂
I”m there with you. Her fighting style definately lends to a double bladed lightsaber. No sense on training with that style for her or her stunt double for a couple scenes in TFA without it in my opinion.
Okay, did anyone else imagined her against Darth Maul after watching the video? Hahaha
Yeah. After a prolonged fight, Maul would lose.
I remember that scene of Brick when Joseph Gordon-Levitt Knock Out a hitman/drug dealer in a corner, I want witty scenes like that in Ep. VIII!
Rey is the descendant of Dooku….we get to see his residence in this town.
I bet for Palpatine, but Dooku could work aswell.
lolno
Oh, look she deleted her tweet. Stop asking about actor’s shooting schedule reporter.
Nothing cooler or sexier than a woman that can fight. She’s bad ass and Rey will be too
Maybe we should say Daisy Ridley is Chloe Bruce’s “talking double.”
Pretty safe to say Rey will turn that staff into a double bladed light saber. Yup !
I hope your right! That would be beyond epic!
How much of her was onscreen in TFA?
only her head and arms, anything more and the rating would go up.
Ha! Long as it’s not a Black Swan situation.
Kylo = Revan, Rey = Bastilla Shan – ‘there is always a little truth in legends’.
She may have deleted her tweet because she realized that work sucks.
