The Force Awakens Gwendoline Christie as Captain Phasma

[Solidus]

I didn't know she was in the game. I think the potential for the cloaking armor in an action sequence is very exciting.

I don't know if she is in there, probably not, but it would be cool if you could get that armor. You never know. We are getting some DLC like the Battle of Jakku. I'm not sure if there will be anything in there like that, but she would be fun to play as one of the heroes. Maybe in future DLC?

 

[paladinryan]

It isn't Captain Steve. It is Captain Rogers. Phasma is her surname.

Oh duh, how daft of me.

Well anyway, I still think she could be more significant than we think.

 

[Gianakin_]

I can't decide if I wish the name was actually "Captain Phantasma" or not.

Well, that would mean "Captain Ghost", so it wouldn't mean something, with regard to what we know about her.

 

[Young Superman]

I like her look.

 

[Bim]

^ me too. Cant wait to see her in action, i think her role could be bigger than we think.

 

[Hunter Rider]

 

[The Shape]

Well, that would mean "Captain Ghost", so it wouldn't mean something, with regard to what we know about her.

If her armor allows her the power of invisibility, would that really be so unfitting?

 

[DaddlerTheDalek]

I wonder if she's some kind of supersoldier for the First Order.

 

[Gianakin_]

If her armor allows her the power of invisibility, would that really be so unfitting?

You're actually right.

 

[LastActionHero]

I'm really getting excited, she is one of my favorite actress.

 

[RetrogradeOrbit]

Holy crap! Just did a bit of googling on GC and I had no idea she is over 6'3" tall...
She is going to make an imposing Captain Phasma!

 

[Bim]

Yeah. I've only recently started watching Game of Thrones, and seeing her in this makes me even more excited to see her character in episode 7. I have high hopes she's going to be awesome t:

 

[paladinryan]

"Captain Phasma no longer appears on our scopes."

"She can't have disappeared--no stormtrooper that tall has a cloaking device..."

"Well, there's no trace of her, sir."

[MagnarTheGreat]

Phasma I named because of the amazing chrome design that came from Michael Kaplan’s wardrobe team. It reminded me of the ball in Phantasm, and I just thought, Phasma sounds really cool.

That's definitely a woman pose. And I just looooove that armor. Looks fantastic.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I don't know how to feel about that pose. Everything so far has felt gender neutral with Phasma. She is just a big, badass Stormtrooper. That pose just feels way out of left field.

I really think she is going to be a big part of the film!

 

[Brother Jack]

I'm starting to get the feeling that we won't see Christie out of the armor in the movie, ala Boba Fett.

 

[Doctor Jones]

That would be very cool. She possibly can be like Boba Fett, with all the mystery and badassery, but with depth if that makes any sense. She takes off her helmet at the very end and she's got some arc.

 

[Drizzle]

I'd imagine that she might take her helmet off at some point. If only for the fact that Gwendoline Christie is an established actress and not a stuntperson like Ray Park was for Darth Maul or a stand-in like Jeremy Bulloch was for Boba Fett, even if she is over six feet tall.

 

[MurkeNyou]

Hugo weaving never took his mask off in V for Vendetta. I'm hoping that is what happens here.
