Revisiting ‘Chaos Walking,’ Tom Holland & Daisy Ridley’s Forgotten 2021 Flop | Memory Holed

2026 starts with a new film featuring Daisy Ridley (known from We Bury the Dead), which immediately made me think of Chaos Walking. Have you heard of it? This movie is based on the first book in Patrick Ness’s young adult dystopian series, originally titled The Knife of Never Letting Go – a much more compelling title, honestly, with a Dunelike quality. Chaos Walking* takes place in the distant future on a colonized planet where all men can hear each other’s thoughts – constantly. Let’s just say, it’s a pretty chaotic situation.
