Riz Ahmed responds to his possible return to Marvel or Star Wars

Riz Ahmed, who is known for his work in such notable films as Four Lions, Nightcrawler, and Sound of Metal, as well as global hits Rogue One, and Venom, is currently in the news for Netflix’s Nimona where he voices the character of Ballister Boldheart. However, his fans are busy speculating if he may soon be returning to Star Wars.

According to reports, Andor 2 is currently under production in the United Kingdom, and Ahmed’s character Bodhi Rook could theoretically make an appearance.


We all know that every Rogue One character died during the film’s climactic battle on Scarif, including Bodhi. Of course, Andor is a prequel, and the canon Star Wars timeline has Bodhi working with Saw Gerrera, who everybody knows is returning.

During a recent interview, Ahmed was asked if he would be back for more Star Wars or Marvel movies. Responding to the question, the Oscar-winning actor said, “I am always interested in working with great people on anything that feels like I could be helpful. At the same time, I also realise that being a team player means you come in and you do a bit, and it has a start and an end.”

Meanwhile, Nimona is available to watch on Netflix.

7 Bruce Willis thrillers ranked by Rotten Tomatoes score that aren’t 'Die Hard'

Highlights

  • Bruce Willis has several critically acclaimed thrillers beyond the Die Hard franchise
  • Looper currently holds the highest Rotten Tomatoes score among these picks at 93%
  • 12 Monkeys and The Sixth Sense also rank among his strongest-reviewed films
  • The list spans sci-fi thrillers, supernatural mysteries, neo-noir and action films

Bruce Willis will always be associated with John McClane, but Die Hard is hardly the only place where the actor made his mark on the thriller genre.

Across the 1990s and 2000s, Willis moved between time-travel mysteries, supernatural dramas, neo-noirs and action thrillers, often using the same understated intensity that made him such a recognisable screen presence. Rotten Tomatoes scores show that some of his most highly regarded work came when he stepped away from the role of the conventional action hero.
