Ridley is teaming up with another “Star Wars” alum, Alden Ehrenreich, for “The Last Resort.”
The romantic-comedy follows hotel heiress Brooke (Ridley) as she travels to the Philippines to scout for a new resort, where she meets Ben (Ehrenreich), an expatriate charter pilot who helps her discover not only the beauty of the island, but the wonders of falling in love.
Donald Petrie, who directed “Miss Congeniality” and “How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days,” will direct the film, with a script from Karen McCullah, known for her work in “Legally Blonde” and “10 Things I Hate About You.”
Ridley rose to fame for her portrayal of Jedi Rey Skywalker in the “Star Wars” universe while Ehrenreich gained prominence for playing a younger version of Han Solo in the franchise.
