Reveal spoilers,Daisy Ridleywill not.
TheStar Warsstar recently found herself battling off foes far more menacing than clones or bounty hunters: other movie stars hungry forRise of Skywalkerspoilers.
“Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalkeris the culmination of one of the biggest stories in cinema, and to be a part —” Ridley, 27, begins to say in the video, before Gad cuts her off.
“Josh, no,” she says with a roll of her eyes.
“Yes,” theFrozen 2actor replies, nonplussed. “I just wanted to come visit you and also ask you a personal question.”
Gad then pops one of the biggest questions on the minds ofStar Warsfans: “Who are Rey’s parents?”
“Is this, like, a thing?” Ridley responds, as if it’s not the first time the query has been aimed at her.
“I see you’re not going to make this easy,” Gad says before calling in some back up. “Okay, I can’t believe you’re making me do this, but…”
Several more celebrities then pop up to pepper Ridley with more questions about the upcoming finale, includingAnna Kendrick,Tony Hale,Awkwafina,Sterling K. Brown,Kumail Nanjiani,Pedro Pascal,Tina Fey, Jonathan Groff, Brian Tyree Henry,Tom Hollandand several more.
Director J. J. Abrams pops out at one point to offer some encouragement to the actress, as more and more stars keep pummeling her with spoilery questions. “Stay strong, Daisy!” he says.
“I’m not answering any of these,” Ridley tells Gad before her costarJohn Boyegacomes out to ask her who Rey’s parents are.
“John, you know the answer!” she says. “I do. Okay,” Boyega says as he leaves.

“It’s, I think, a very satisfying story,” Ridley told PEOPLE of Rey’s relationship withAdam Driver‘s Kylo Ren, explaining footage of a fight between the pair that was shown at Disney’s D23 Expo this summer. “Because also, leaving [The Last Jedi] I was like, ‘Oh I guess we’ve mined that relationship.’ No, no, we’ve mined it some more.”

“The character of Leia is really, in a way, the heart of this story. We realized we could not possibly tell the end of these nine films without Leia,” Abrams said at the D23 Expo.
Ridley recently toldBritish GQthat filming the scenes involving Fisher forRise of Skywalkerwas “difficult.”
“It was emotional doing it, because you’re also weirdly picturing her. You’re not picturing how the scene is going to be,” she told the outlet. “It’s really sad. And it’s going to be really sad. But also, it’s amazing that they have all this footage that is woven into the story in such a strange way.”
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalkeropens in theaters on December 20.
