Daisy Ridley, Tom Bateman Talk Bringing Indie Thriller ‘Magpie’ to Life at SXSW World Premiere
Daisy Ridley and Tom Bateman explain how Ridley came up with the premise of the indie thriller 'Magpie' that had its world premiere Saturday at SXSW.
Daisy Ridley took a moment during the post-premiere Q&A for her indie thriller “ Magpie ” at SXSW on Saturday night to reflect on the journey of bringing the film to life. Ridley plays Annette, a tightly wound woman with two young children who struggles while watching her creepy husband (Shazad Latif) descend into an affair with an actress (Matilda Lutz) after the couple’s daughter is cast in a movie.
