It’s time for a triple 1 Holonet Blast! There’s not a lot of news to report this week, being a holiday weekend and all, but don’t worry. We’re not empty handed!

First off, Daisy Ridley has been making the rounds for Ophelia and dropped some tidbits about The Rise of Skywalker. Read the articles in USA Today, in which she talks fan theories, and in Vulture, in which she talks about her hug with Carrie Fisher from the teaser trailer. Ridley also was interviewed on Good Morning America and stated she thinks fans will be satisfied and called Episode IX a brilliant end to the story. Yeah, I’m excited!

Sadly, in much less cool news, Riz Ahmed recently revealed that he had to cancel his Celebration Chicago appearance due to being detained at the airport. Ahmed spoke at a leadership summit about the issues faced by Muslims. Not only is it disappointing Ahmed wasn’t able to greet fans, but it’s also an ugly reminder of the racial profiling and discrimination that occurs in our society.

Today was the Women’s World Cup Final (Go USA!) and Walt Disney Studios dropped a teaser for the live action Mulan film, releasing next March. I’m usually not super excited about Disney’s live action versions of their cartoon films, but this one looks to be not an adaptation but rather an original take on the Mulan story. The teaser was excellent and I’m really excited to see how the film turns out.

That’s all for this week’s Holonet Blast. See y’all next week!
