On Twitter, fans lauded Ridley's new look but not without poking a little fun at her expense. According to them, the actress now shares a striking resemblance to multi-awarded American rapper Marshall Mathers aka Eminem and now it's totally hard to unsee! Check out some of the reactions below:

Fun fact, Ridley actually knows the words to Eminem's Academy Award-winning track "Lose Yourself" from the critically acclaimed film 8 Mile. She even performed a snippet of the rap in a 2017 feature with Vogue Magazine. Would it be safe to say that the Real Slim Shady was actually the inspiration for her new look? Probably not.

Meanwhile, we still don't know what the future holds for Daisy in the Star Wars franchise but despite the negative reception the sequels generated, it looks like the actress is still open to returning to the franchise sometime in the future.

A Rey Skywalker return would make a ton of sense, especially considering how The Rise of Skywalker ended. And hey, it's become a recurring theme in the franchise as evidenced by the returns of characters like Luke Skywalker, Boba Fett, Darth Vader, and Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Disney's Star Wars sequel trilogy is available for streaming on Disney+.
