Status: Rumoured

Captain Phasma is the Sequel Trilogy's answer to Boba Fett: a character with a ridiculously badass design, who doesn't actually do all that much. Rather than gain a cult following, though, it's quite broadly accepted that Phasma is a waste of concept or simply a real letdown.

It's a shame, not just because that design is cool, but also because Gwendoline Christie deserves the chance to do more (which is also describing her last couple of years on Game of Thrones too).

Seeing more of her story might dovetail quite nicely with a First Order-centric tale with Finn as well, by showing us more of the machine from the inside and the missions they undertook to take control of the galaxy. But like with many of these discussed so far, there's still a limit to just how much you can do with this, which makes it feel a little too unnecessary.
