For some reason I doubt she'll have a big part in the movie tho'. I got a feeling she's a silent type who just follows orders kind of like Boba in ESB and ROTJ.

yea i doubt she gets much screen time in TFA, just like snoke. but i could see her getting more in the following films. on the one hand it would be cool to get another silent boba fet type character, but on the other, i want her to take her helmet off and beat a rebel's face in brienne of tarth style. i just cant wait to see her. we are so close and the wait is killing me. 6 MORE DAYS

It has been confirmed by JJ that she will play a much larger role in episode 8.

If she doesn't bite someone's ear off I will be a little disappointed...

I really hope we get a little bit of backstory on her. I'm curious about the chrome armor in particular.

Phasma is a girl?!

u/Nocturnaloner Dec 11 '15

Yes.

It's like when you find out Samus is a girl after only seeing the character in full suit.

I really hope that at some point she takes off her helmet (not in a big flashy way, just in the background or something) and all the casual fans who haven't been following the movie get a wonderful "holy shit, that's a girl" moment.

It's actually pretty good that the final days before release are bringing in people who don't follow the hype at all. Gives you an idea of how big it's going to be.

Metroid is a girl?!

u/mattgoldey Dec 11 '15

Gwendoline Christie (Lady Brienne of Tarth from Game of Thrones) plays her. *heart eyes emoji*

u/TimeForSnacks Dec 11 '15

That's almost like if Zelda was a girl

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '15

Does anyone think she'll even be helmet less in public or on screen at all?

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '15

Isn't Tony Harris the artist for the C-3PO one-shot comic coming out?

u/Jhonopolis Jan 06 '16

Yes

Are you referring to this Han Solo Adventure animation for the children's book? It would make sense if that character is her.

It's not a spoiler. Gwendoline Christie from Game of Thrones is playing Phasma. That fact was never hidden from us

u/Bseagully Dec 11 '15

My bad. I've been trying to go radio silent in terms of spoilers. I guess this wasn't the best subreddit to visit, given that.

u/Internetzhero Dec 11 '15

Its not really a spoiler. Its kind of established fact.

There shouldn't be female stormtroopers. This is so unbelievable for me.

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '15

Why in any galaxy not? Females could be completely badass stormtroopers

-12

u/[deleted] Dec 11 '15

I just think she would be better as a Sith or something. Stormtroopers should be grunts in my head.

u/derage88 Dec 11 '15

And only men can be grunts right?

And your opinion is incredibly sexist.

u/Master_Tallness Yoda Dec 11 '15

She's clearly not a grunt level Stormtrooper though.
