Josh Gad Takes His Questioning to Daisy Ridley About The Last Jedi to Another Level!
As you probably already know, Daisy Ridley is currently filming her new movie Murder on the Orient Express, directed by Kenneth Branagh and starring Johnny Depp. Josh Gad, another cast member, has been very persistent lately trying to get some info from Daisy about The Last Jedi in a series of Instagram videos. His latest attempt is his boldest yet…
First, just watch Gad’s latest video:
WOW, what an ensemble! Gad managed to get Episode VII and Episode IX directors to question Daisy about Episode VIII. Impressive! It seems that the Murder on the Orient Express and the untitled Jurassic World sequel productions are neighbors, since most of the cast members in this video seem to be from these two movies. Episode IX director Colin Trevorrow, who directed the first Jurassic World movie is writing and producing the sequel. What J.J. Abrams is doing there remains a mystery however.
Here are his previous attempts in case you missed them (from first to latest):
Well, what do you think? Are these videos going to lead to some kind of a revelation about The Last Jedi? Obviously they are staged and anything is possible. Tell us what you think in the comments below.

Can’t blame them on trying to start the viral hype early.
brilliant!
I lost it when JJ popped up. Bravo to whoever’s brain child these were.
Am I the only one who has a bad feeling about episode IX? Seriously. I can’t believe the same person that directed that mindless Jurassic World movie is in charge of a Star Wars film.
reminder: episode IX is being written by rian johnson.
Jurassic World Writers:
Derek Connolly
Colin Trevorrow
Rick Jaffa
Amanda Silver
Episode 9 Writers:
Rian Johnson (story treatment)
Colin Trevorrow
Derek Connolly

Interesting that Derek Connolly is involved in both. He and trevorrow friends?
Gareth Edwards directed the rudderless Godzilla, and Disney gave him the first spinoff movie. I adored Safety Not Guaranteed. Way too premature to write off Trevorrow.
Irvin Kershner never directed much worth paying attention to, before or after ESB. Colin could make his only masterpiece, much as Gareth Edwards did with Rogue One (in the opinions of many people). We’ll have to wait and see. After all , Rian Johnson is still writing and producing.
are you saying that robocop 2 isn’t on the same level as empire? 😉
I take it back, Robocop 2 is on the level of Citizen Kane.
I thought Robocop 2 was a sequel to Citizen Kane, where Kane, after not being reunited with Rosebud, changes his name to Cain, sets up the Nuke cult and eventually transgresses to a higher plane of existence when his minded is uploaded into a robot. Everything checks out.
Exactly what did Kersh do before or after Empire Strikes Back that people loved?
Nothing. That’s what my comment was saying.
Hahahaha so funny man!!! But the Judi Dench one was the very best. I laughed so much. The Daisy face too hahah
i get the feeling that this is all a publicity stunt, but its still cute.
You don’t say
Sarcastic reply acknowledged.
😀
Oh, ya think?
Oh no, i think you guys are onto my secret identity. 😉 https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/c23624bece8ed518de6e224456ca40cfe477ef0c3e680c822046b3fca9629dd9.jpg
OH NO! NOT CAPTAIN OBVIOUS!!! *Runs off, screaming*
Josh Gad truly lack patience. XD
Was all cool until the hack showed up…
Which hack? Either way, that’s rather rude from you.
Well haters have many hacks to choose from. Seriously someone somewhere has dreamed up some reason to likely hate one or all of those people. Do they deserve it? No, not really. I mean think about it. All they did was act, produce or perform something for entertainment… and yet they are hated. Crazy petty world.
Re: “and yet they are hated.”
Sounds like you’re reading WAY too much into OP comment.
*Hated* ?!
I don’t think the term hack means what you think it means.
Hint: It doesn’t mean hate.
Questions:
Do you only accuse people of hate who you disagree with on a subjective topic? You yourself never judge someone as a *hack* as you’d then be “a hater”?
Well just commenting in general on the folks who tend to hate on other folks. You’re right… hack isn’t that strong of a word but given them time and before you know it… 😛
Re: “hack isn’t that strong of a word”
Hack is a subjective judgement.
Re: “All they did was act, produce or perform something for entertainment”
I understand that sentiment, but people are still entitled to *judge* (express opinions about) the talent/output.
I get what you’re saying…but I really don’t have a problem with someone using that term hack in this context.
I mean if Uwe Boll popped-up in the video & someone made some judgement term, even “hack”, describing him… I’d not expect anyone to accuse the commenter of being a hater/hating.
Just so you can be at ease, I do not hate anyone, the funny and interesting thing here is that everybody replying knows exactly who I’m talking about…
Well actually it’s a toss up. You’re either talking about Chris Pratt or JJ… I like them both honestly. If you’re not talking about them… I’m stumped lol.
But remember, they’re the vocal minority so the world shouldn’t be called one of pettiness.
I’m triggered.
WAHHHHH
Yes, definitely a cool one. I think the next one she’ll actually answer some questions and freak everyone out.
She’ll probably reveal the Episode VIII Rey Funko Pop or something like that.
LMAO. Josh Gad is out of control.
I don’t mind that this article is almost completely devoid of substance as long as it features Daisy’s dimples.
JJ is executive producer, might explain why he is there.
He is an executive producer to Episode VIII, but not to Murders at the Orient Express and Jurassic World 2. So his presence is weird.
Well if they are neighbors some of the crew could just visit there right? Like JJ and Daisy did?
Likely all in town for the oscars or something.
It’s time to go all the way, Josh. Extreme measures are necessary. Daisy clearly isn’t cooperating.
I would love to see this final installment of the series …
IN THE FOREGROUND, a determined-looking Josh Gad is readying a syringe.
DAISY RIDLEY (only heard behind him, clearly desperate): Josh, no! Please! You can’t to this to me!
JOSH: I didn’t want to, Daisy! You know I tried every other way first. But now we are down to sodium penthotal.
DAISY: No! Please, Josh, no!
[JOSH steps aside to reveal Daisy, completely tied up and sitting on a chair.]
DAISY [almost in tears now]: Josh, please don’t … Disney will sue me for millions if I violate my non-disclosure agreement …
JOSH [vaguely compassionate]: Blame the truth serum, Daisy. Just blame the truth serum.
[Daisy desperately tries to break free, but Josh trusts the needle into her arm and gives her the injection.]
DAISY: Aaargh! You son of a …
JOSH: No bad language, Daisy! Remember that this will be uploaded to YouTube, and you are a role model. Don’t go all Miley Cyrus on poor Disney before the sequel trilogy is complete.
DAISY [her voice becoming slurred as the powerful drug hits her brain]: You’ll go to jail … if you upload this … anywhere …
JOSH: Yes, but the entire Star Wars community will also revere me as the man who finally got the truth out of you. Very well, Daisy. You feel the effect of the truth serum now, don’t you? I will ask, and you must answer. So, Daisy dearest: WHO IS REY’S FATHER? Inquiring minds want to know!
DAISY: Please … stop … this …
JOSH [to camera, doing his best Vader impersonation]: Her resistance to the mind probe is considerable! It will be some time before we can extract any information from her.
DAISY [drugged, dreamily]: You … little … prick …
JOSH: Where Kylo Ren failed, I will succeed. You must answer, Daisy! You must tell me the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth! Once again: WHO IS REY’S FATHER? Is she a Skywalker?
DAISY [finally succumbing to the serum]: No …
JOSH: She isn’t a Skywalker?
DAISY: No …
JOSH: Well, as Tarkin once said, I grow tired of asking this: WHO IS REY’S FATHER?
DAISY: BB-8 …
JOSH: Whaaat?!
DAISY: It’s the big twist in The Last Jedi … the big reveal … BB-8 is Rey’s father …
JOSH: Daisy, the sodium penthotal is making you talk nonsense! Droids don’t have children!
DAISY: BB-8 does … Rey’s father was totally maimed in a battle, so they just took out his brain and put it in a droid … Like the whole Darth Vader thing … only more extreme … You know, more machine than man … like 95 % machine this time …
JOSH [looks thoughtfully at camera:] Well, guys, we finally have our answer. After all I’ve done for the Star Wars community, please crowdfund me now that I’ll need a really good lawyer, since Daisy will obviously sue me for injecting her with sodium penthotal as soon as she comes to. But it was worth it … SO worth it! BB-8 is Rey’s father! Who could have guessed?
LOL nothing short of brilliant! Who would have thunk it? 🙂
DAISY: You will remove these restraints and leave this cell with the door open.
What the hell is a Millenium Falcum?
Great video! hahahaha!
Josh, you sure know how to rile up the community! Just keep those dimples coming 🙂
