Daisy Ridley Says Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker Will Be Less Controversial Than Game Of Thrones Finale

2019 will go down in the history books as bringing about the end of three major sagas. Avengers: Endgame wrapped up Marvel’s Infinity Saga, Game of Thrones completed its eight-season run and Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is set to conclude the Skywalker saga. While there’s been some criticism of Endgame, it’s unarguably a major success. GoT, on the other hand, has drawn endless ire from the many people dissatisfied with how it concluded the show.

So, how’s Rise going to go down? Will it be another Endgame-level hit, or a GoT-like goof? Star Daisy Ridley was asked how Episode IX will compare to Thrones by MTV News’ Josh Horowitz recently and she gave an answer that’ll leave fans breathing a sigh of relief, as the actress seems sure that it’ll be a much less controversial ending than GoT‘s. True, Ridley maybe isn’t the best judge as she hasn’t actually seen all of Game of Thrones yet, but this is still encouraging to hear regardless.

So, what can we gather about the movie from Ridley’s comment? Well, one major reason for the backlash against GoT season 8 is how it didn’t give the characters the endings fans were hoping for. For example, Daenerys burning down King’s Landing and then ultimately dying by Jon Snow’s hand. Can we infer, then, that Rise of Skywalker won’t feature any twists that’ll really shock people and maybe incite another Last Jedi-esque reaction?

Perhaps, but this would be a little surprising considering that the recent trailer teased that Rey would go to the Dark Side, with Ridley seen wielding a red double-sided lightsaber and wearing a Sith cloak. A switch like this would no doubt be pretty controversial, though, so perhaps this confirms that “Dark Rey” is really some kind of mirage or fakeout, as fans have theorized.

In any case, we’ll find out how controversial Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker ends up being when it hits theaters on December 20th.

Listen To Indian Muslims' "Mann Ki Baat": Jama Masjid Shahi Imam To PM

Jama Masjid's Shahi Imam Syed Ahmed Bukhari on Friday expressed concerns over the "storm of hatred" in the country, and urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to listen to the 'Mann Ki Baat' of Muslims. Citing recent incidents like the Nuh riots and the killing of four persons by a railway police jawan on a running train, Ahmed Bukhari suggested in his Friday sermon at the historic mosque that PM Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah hold dialogue with intellectuals from the community. "I have been compelled to speak due to the existing situation in the country. The situation in the country is worrisome and a storm of hatred is posing grave danger to peace in the country," Ahmed Bukhari said. "You say your 'Mann Ki Baat' but you also need to listen to the 'Mann Ki Baat' of Muslims. The Muslims are troubled due to the prevailing conditions and worried about their future," Ahmed Bukhari said, referring to PM Modi's monthly radio pro...
