In this way, Ridley has come face to face with world-shattering success and devastating critique.

There are a number of reasons whyChaos Walkingshould have been a success.

First and foremost, the cast was truly outstanding.

Alongside Ridley,Chaos Walkingstarred Tom Holland, Mads Mikkelsen, Nick Jonas, and Cynthia Erivo.

Of course, these details were all secondary to the movie’s greatest strength of all: its premise.

Ultimately,the main issue withChaos Walkingwas that it didn’t do its premise justice.

According to critics, the movie was dull and unoriginal.

Most likely, the story could get a second chance by being turned into a TV show.

Tom Holland and Daisy Ridley star in Chaos Walking, a film adaptation of the dystopian thriller novel series by Patrick Ness. Todd Hewitt has been brought up to believe that a viral germ has killed all the women in a colony world and unleashed Noise, the unique ability to read people’s and animals' minds. Later, he comes upon a patch of silence and soon discovers its source: a mysterious woman named Viola Eade - beginning the discovery of the truth of the new world’s history.

With more time, perhaps the showrunners could delve deeper into the story unlike the 2021 movie did.

Unfortunately, this leavesChaos Walkingin a difficult, dead-end spot.
