@californiagirl

I like that concept! Definitely inspired by Yoda vs Shadow Yoda, yet far more intense, it seems.

Now that would be a twist!

And here it is, TLJ under 5 minutes for kids. Very hero driven. It’s funny which force connection they chose. And guess who is in the very last image of the video.

I couldn't help but think watching TLJ yet again, the expression on Kylo's face as he stares at Rey during their second Force connection ("You have that look on your face"), that it was familiar.
Where did I see that before?
Then it hit me.
In Bram Stoker's Dracula, the scene when Drac drops Mina off at her friend's home, Gary Oldman had exactly the same expression on his face as he kissed her hand.
It's adoration.

Seeing this, I want to think, my brain tells me...

Also, another big spread in Total Film coming up, plus (another!) centerpiece on Adam.



They are REALLY banking on this shot: the trailer, the SW website home page, t-shirts, magazines, seriously everything.

before anyone gets too excited, the scene couldn't feature Kylo because Adam was in LA on Nov 6 (BKKK promo). Last day in Jordan was Nov 9 (they didn't shoot but where just hanging out - JJ and Oscar went to Israel, Daisy went to Petra). I remember that John posted Fireworks (wrap party presumably) on Nov 7 or 8 (I think it was 7th). So last day of shooting would be party day, maybe day before, but Adam definitely wasn't there because of proven appearance in the States plus long flight. he had to leave at aleast on Nov 5.

Sorry to burst the bubble but that short scene that moved everyone doesn't have Rey and Kylo in it, just Rey.

Unfortunately, it's predictable. Daisy never got me the feeling that she felt touched filming with Adam. She may think him a great actor, but he's not her friend, as John, for example.

She literally said something about being besties with him was the best thing ever lol. She's def got closer to Adam over time for sure.

Desert, fading lights, the majestic Williams soundtrack... I immediately thought of a new binary sunset scene, something that reminds you Luke and the past movies and surely it could get you emotional.


I'm pretty curious about that scene now

@rey09

I agree, I remember reading they went out for drinks together in Ireland. They definitely got closer while filming TLJ and I imagine they are even closer friends after filming TROS too. It's just that for some reason, we never see them together in promo pics, red carpets or interviews. It's kind of sad really with them being the most popular characters of this trilogy..

Daisy's scenes with Adam in TFA were mostly antagonistic, apart from the interrogation scene. With John she had scenes where they bonded as friends.
In TLJ their scenes were much more personal. I think we're going to see both in TROS.

@tukicarreno

Well, they don't look that friendly IMO. I believe she respects his work a lot, but I don't see them have the nice friendship she has with John. But since I don't really know these people, I will not argue about. Anyone is entitled to have his feelings about these matters.

It doesn't really matter though. I mean, they seem to like each other just fine and get along just fine as well. But there's a big age gap and lifestyle difference, and they're at completely different places in their careers. I guess it would be nice if we got more in the way of promo between the two of them, but we might still yet. Marketing hasn't officially ramped up, and there might be even more to come AFTER the movie is released (when they can released their stronghold on spoilers a little bit more). None of this is necessarily connected to the story.

I mean Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey couldn't stand each other to the point where I don't even think they could be in the same room if they weren't filming a scene. And yet Dirty Dancing is still the story and film that it is.

@nickandnora

Yes, I agree with you. And, as you, I would love to see them together promoting the movie more actively.

There's another thing....Daisy and John are both British which means of course they're likely to see more of each other. And in the interviews during the promotion of TFA they seemed far more extrovert than Adam, who's come out of his shell a bit since.

They seemed fine together during the promos for TLJ. And of course Adam is also a dad now, and naturally will want to spend family time in between working.
Or it could simply be LF misdirection.
We'll have to wait and see.

Whether Daisy and Adam are friends has nothing to do with them doing promo for TROS together. If KK/JJ and LF/Disney deem it important that they do so, they will. John and Daisy became friends because they were two young Brits starting a new-ish career at the same time. Also, the whole "bestie" comment I took in the way it was meant -- humorous and lighthearted. I doubt Daisy and Adam are actual 'besties.' That's just a British expression... the American version would be buddies. No biggie.

I would love it if Disney went Chris Pine/Gal Gadot with Adam and Daisy. I guess we shall see.

People, I never said they were enemies. Jeez. I just stated that it's not surprising to think that she felt more touched sharing a scene with people she feels as her friends. I believe she would feel more touched sharing a scene with John, for example. There's not bad about it.

But maybe this scene was with R2. Who knows? XD

I would love that too! Make it happen Disney! I do think Adam & Daisy are close though, they just don't show it in public. To say "the best thing that happened to me after filming TLJ, is becoming besties wth you" means something. Imagine all the time they spent together practicing fights and all the emotional stuff. Daisy even said she stayed up all night in Ireland chatting with Adam before filming a scene the day after. So yeah, hopefully we will see some joint interviews for once when they start promoting TROS.

I hope so too!

But let's just say, Adam is not that introvert as he seems in front of the cameras. Mia Wasikowska ( the most introverted actress ever ) has a movie with him and she shared some "interesting" information about him lmao. He's a silly goofy in short. He carried her on his back on set and sooo on. Or the bts photos of TMWKDQ.

He's closed and nervous only when it comes to the Stat Wars cast members. Weird.

But I do hope we will see them together at the premier. Not to mention a possible reylo photoshoot

Here are some Daisy-Adam friendship magazine articles from earlier in the ST era:

https://vmagazine.com/article/driving-miss-daisy/

https://www.bustle.com/p/daisy-ridley-adam-drivers-friendship-is-beautifully-supportive-7630558

I can't see this kind of marketing happening this time around though simply because of Adam's schedule. We shall see though.

I agree with @Atenais point, "touching" is not description I will expect from Daisy about filming a scene with Driver, as Daisy usually is getting emotional about her own feelings about shooting and not about emotional weight of literal scene.

Regarding Driver’s and Ridley’s relationship, I’ve never considered it friendship (as in being really close) - I believe they like each other, feel at ease in their company and enjoy hanging out together when they work on the same project. It’s Boyega, who’s Ridley’s close friend - they’re both British Londoners, SW was their true breakthrough, they’re closer in age and lifestyle and so on.
However, as @nickandnora said, it doesn’t matter as Ridley and Driver aren’t the same people as their characters. Also agreed with @Dar-ren19 - Lucasfilm will decide if they promote TRoS together.

I got the impression that Daisy and John— British, the same age, both single— were good friends, whereas Adam hit it off more with Oscar— similar age, married, also a dad, American, fellow Juilliard grad.  But that they all liked and respected each other.  I don’t find that very surprising— no more than the fact that a big offscreen Daisy/Oscar friendship doesn’t seem to be happening.  Besides, if Daisy says anything gushy about Adam, you know there are two portions of the fandom that will jump on it as proof of Reylo— one will be delighted, and one will be angry.  She kind of can’t win.  

I should add that I loved her dynamic with Domhnall Gleason in some of the TV spots, and they never had a single scene together.  

Edited to add: The Domhnall/Daisy dynamic was hilarious, like goofy siblings or something.
