One-Legged Spy Virginia Hall Gets Her Own Movie

Paramount Buys Spy Novel ‘A Woman Of No Importance’ For Star Wars’ Daisy Ridley:

Ridley will be playing real-life WW2 spy Virginia Hall. Rejected from the US foreign service for both gender and disability (she had a wooden leg named Cuthbert!), Hall joined the British SOE and ROCKED IT. She was considered one of the SOE’s most dangerous spies.

(and she’s probably a future RP :D  got her own RP entry!)
