• Industry scooper Daniel Richtman reports that Ridley is negotiating to star in an adaptation of Tony Cliff’s 2013 graphic novel Delilah Dirk and the Turkish Lieutenant.
• Disney, Ridley, and previously named producers have not announced any deal or active production status.
• The character is an early 19th‑century adventurer trained in 47 sword techniques who travels the globe on a flying boat.
• The rumor was repeated by genre outlets including ComicBookMovie.com, Dark Horizons, and GeekTyrant without independent confirmation.
• Ridley remains linked to a new Star Wars film, and the Delilah Dirk project would be a non‑Marvel, non‑DC comic adaptation.
