* PlayingAgainstType: Ironically, her debut film role is this compared to her later roles. Ridley primarily plays heroic (or at least sympathetic) {{plucky girl}}s, while her role as Hannah in ''Scrawl'' is significantly more sinister [[spoiler: and villainous]]. The closest she's come to a similar performance since is Rey's evil doppelganger in ''The Rise of Skywalker''.



* StarMakingRole: Her career has skyrocketed the very day ''The Force Awakens'' came out; she was considered for the title role in the ''Franchise/TombRaider'' [[Film/TombRaider2018 reboot]] (losing out to Creator/AliciaVikander), has given her voice to the English dub of ''Only Yesterday'', and also became an executive producer to the movie ''The Eagle Huntress''.

She was also quickly cast in the lead roles of two YA film adaptations (''Ophelia'' and ''Chaos Walking'') and was cast in a major role in a new adaptation of ''Murder on the Orient Express'', all within a few years of ''The Force Awakens'''s release.

!!Tropes in her works:



* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Her early career in short films usually had her playing in horror or crime-related roles, usually as the receiving end of the horror (being murdered in ''Silent Witness'', experimented on and killed with radio frequencies in ''Blue Season'', [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking finding a horse's eye in her meatballs]] in ''100% Beef''), though sometimes the horror itself (Hannah in ''Scrawl''). This is despite the fact that her most famous role afterwards was as the courageous protagonist Rey in the sci-fi fantasy franchise ''Star Wars''.
* LadySwearsalot: Has frequently described herself as this.
