Deadline<\/a> did report that Disney purchased the feature film rights to Delilah Dirk and the Turkish Lieutenant back in 2016. The series, which comes from author Tony Cliff, originally started as a webcomic and was then turned into a handful of graphic novels.<\/p>\n\u201cThe story follows Delilah, described as a female Indiana Jones, as she wields her sword (trained in 47 sword-fighting techniques) and battles pirates and escapes on her flying boat while seeking adventures around the globe,\u201d the outlet said.<\/p>\n
At the time, Deadline said that Roy Lee, Mark Mower, and Justin Giritlian were producing the Delilah Dirk and the Turkish Lieutenant for Disney; however, there\u2019s been little to no news about the project since 2016, so it\u2019s unclear if they\u2019ll still be attached should this Ridley-led version truly be happening.<\/p>\n
Ridley is also attached to star in a new romantic comedy movie titled The Last Resort. Directed by Donald Petrie, the movie will see her play a hotel executive sent to the Philippines for a resort location scouting. While there, she meets and quickly falls for a character played by Alden Ehrenreich, meaning she then has to decide whether to stay with him or return home.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
