LONDON — We all already know that Rey, the badass heroine of the Star Wars: The Force Awakens is awesome, but did you know that the actress who plays her, is just as cool? Daisy Ridley's Instagram is an excitable, bubbling mish-mash of cheery selfies, videos of her dog Muffin, and funny clips of her getting really, really hyped aboutStar Wars. See also: Old stock photos of a teenage John Boyega spotted around university campuses From baked BB-8 cakes to glorious photoshops, we've rounded up some of her best posts below. 1.
