A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away\u2026 Daisy Ridley<\/a><\/strong> delivered an epic Star Wars<\/em>-inspired rap with Jimmy Fallon<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

On Monday, the Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker<\/em> star<\/a> stopped by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon<\/em> and proved the force is strong with a rap recap<\/a> of the beloved franchise\u2014yup, all eight movies! To make the performance even more epic, each bar was rapped to the beat of an hip-hop version of the Star Wars<\/em> classic theme song.<\/p>\n

Starting with Darth Vader kidnapping Princess Leia and making her way to the Death Star exploding, Daisy covered all the bases of Episode IV \u2013 A New Hope<\/em> while Jimmy held up spot-on illustrations of the scenes she was describing.<\/p>\n

“A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away,” she began. “A guy named Vader tried to kidnap a rebel princess Leia<\/a> \/ So she employed a droid to record her a quick note \/ She said, \u2018Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi, you’re my only hope.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Moving right along, Daisy recounted Episode V \u2013 The Empire Strikes Back<\/em> and Episode VI \u2013 Return of the Jedi<\/em>, including iconic moments like Darth Vader’s epic line, “I Am Your Father”<\/a> and Princess Leia’s metal bikini.  <\/p>\n

Then, it was time for the prequels. “Prequel time!” the late night host announced to the audience before Daisy jumped into Episodes 1<\/em>, 11<\/em> and 111<\/em>: <\/em>“Back in the day \/ Little boy Anakin loved to pod race \/ Padm\u00e9 escaped \/ Darth Maul went ape \/ the ending for Qui-Gon Jinn wasn’t so great.” <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Breezing through Episode VII<\/em>, Daisy kicked off Episode VIII – The Last Jedi<\/em> by calling out Kylo Ren’s meme-worthy shirtless scene<\/a>. “Rose got to work,” she said. “Kylo won’t put on a shirt \/ Kylo is kind of a flirt.”<\/p>\n

Since she couldn’t give away any spoilers from <\/a>Episode IX \u2013 The Rise of the Skywalker<\/a>,<\/em> which hits theaters on December 20, Daisy ended things with an uplifting message.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

“You can’t stop me \/ I’m a Jedi from Jakku \/ Fight the dark side from Tatooine to Naboo \/ Let go of everything that you fear to lose \/ Be the spark that lights the fire \/ and may the force be with you.”<\/p>\n

Watch Daisy’s effortlessly rap a recap of all eight Star Wars<\/em> films in the video above!<\/p>\n
