The last we saw of Daisy Ridley in a DVD bonus clip from Star Wars: The Force Awakens, she was showing off her insane ability to cry on demand during her dramatic audition tape. Now, there’s a new bonus clip for fans to pore over, only this one’s not so serious. In fact, it’s straight-up silly as hell.
In the clip, shared by Entertainment Tonight, Ridley and her onscreen partner-in-crime John Boyega (Finn) prove they’re just as formidable a duo when rapping as they are battling Stormtroopers.
“I've got a good eye for talent and Ridley was just doing a little rap one day and I said ‘You know what? I can make you a big star,’” Boyega deadpans by way of introduction. “So we decided to collaborate on a song together.”
Boyega then begins to beatbox while Ridley spits some lines about their time on set: "We all up in the desert and we filming Star Wars/ Because of our diets we can’t eat no Mars bars/ Because of the explosions JB crawling on all fours/ Because of all the heat we can really make some s’mores.” There’s then a whole “In the desert/ woo woo!” chorus that’s catchier than it has any right to be.
What makes the whole thing even better, though, is the quasi-music video accompanying their rap, which shows the Star Wars cast and crew breaking it down in between takes.
-
Daisy was clearly the dancing queen on set.
-
Even director J.J. Abrams got in on the fun.
-
Oscar Isaac (Poe) busted a move at the Resistance base.
-
Rey and Leia twirled to their hearts' content.
-
And the Stormtroopers couldn't resist showing off their ~moves~ either.
The only person whose dancing we wish we got to see was Adam Driver's (Kylo Ren), but we're guessing he's too emo for that.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens hits DVD and Blu-Ray (more like Blu-Rey, amirite?) today, April 5.
