See Proof That Daisy Ridley's Rey Is a Much More Badass Jedi in 'Star Wars Episode VIII'

Much in the same way Luke Skywalker spent much of Empire Strikes Back learning how to be a proper Jedi, we have a feeling some of those elements will carry over to the second film in the new Star Wars trilogy, currently known only as Episode VIII. Both Rey and Kylo Ren will probably spend a chunk of the film mastering their differing ways of the Force. We imagine Luke will teach Rey the ways of the Jedi, while Snoke assists Kylo Ren in finishing his transformation to the Dark Side.

In a new video posted on Daisy Ridley's Instagram page, she shows off some of the rad moves she's been practicing for the sequel, currently in production and scheduled to hit theaters on December 15, 2017. Check her out.

She talks about training with a "WUSHU FRICKING MASTER," which is another way of saying this dude knows his way around the martial arts. As you can tell by her moves, though, Rey will most definitely receive an upgrade in abilities by the next time we see her on-screen, lookin' to put a lightsaber smackdown on any and all who cross her path.

In addition to this video, we also learned the first of the stormtrooper cameos in Episode VIII... and they're royalty. Check that out here.
