I was thinking a little more about Phasma in the hangar today and was wondering if it would even be possible to change her to a completely different trooper altogether. I don’t know much about video editing, but if you could change Phasma’s armour to a gold or copper, you could get someone to record new lines and turn her into another high ranking trooper who still looks unique and badass. It may be a little awkward and out of nowhere, but it’s not like Phasma was ever utilized effectively either. It’s almost a trend in Star Wars to waste the coolest looking bad guys and could be a funny nod to that!

I’d be eager to send in recordings of new lines to you if you ever considered following through with this idea (I’m the person who did the new line in Hal’s TFA:R). For example, Phasma’s line when she captures Finn and the gang could be changed from “so good to have you back” to “I’ve heard a lot about you.” Also, they have a bright red trooper and gold trooper in the animated Resistance show, so having another unique colour wouldn’t be that ridiculous if you ask me.

The only difficulty (other than changing the armour colour) would be redubbing part of Hux’s “well done, Phasma.” Perhaps replacing it with a similarly mouth-shaped name. Or maybe that line could be removed completely! I’m not sure.

Then again, you may not be at all interested in making any more changes to that scene. Just had a moment of inspiration and wanted to throw it out there!
