​Starring in Star Wars comes with a huge amount of pressure. Daisy Ridley knows this and struggled with it when filming the first film in the new trilogy.





Ridley, who is on the cover of Elle's December issue, discussed hardships and struggles she had filming "The Force Awakens".

"I didn't think I was good in the first film... A nd I was struggling with that," ​​ she told Elle.





We're always our own harshest critics, but it's hard to believe she didn't like her performance.





She says she had a hard time finding her footing in the earliest days of filming "The Force Awakens".





"I honestly wanted to die, I thought I was gonna cry. I couldn't breathe," Ridley commented.

Even though she doubted herself for a while, it appears she has found her confidence in the upcoming "The Last Jedi" as she has realized what a huge thing the Star Wars franchise is and what it means to fans.





"It's not this big adventure that I'm on with John. I was thinking I did the first one because I didn't really know what I was getting myself into and I was having loads of fun, and suddenly I'm realizing what this actually is, and I can't f--king do this.





"I'm highly dramatic, so it's all, 'Oh, my God!'…Finally, I was like 'Oh, yeah. This is working,'" Ridley commented.

We can't wait to see her kill it in "The Last Jedi"​ and share scenes with Luke Skywalker.





It's going be awesome.
