Gwendoline Christie

These stars deserved better from the galaxy far, far away.

Tom Sturridge will lead the series as Dream.

The adaptation of YA dystopian series, ‘The Darkest Minds,’ might just be our next ‘Hunger Games.’

Even those who adored Rian Johnson’s Star Wars sequel (like us) can probably agree that at least one thing was a little lacking: Captain Phasma. Although we were excited for the return of Gwendoline Christie’s super shiny and ultra-intimidating trooper, she didn’t have a whole lot to do in The Last Jedi. Given the focus of Johnson’s story, that’s understandable, but we would’ve liked to see just a teeny bit more from Christie’s antagonist. Thanks to this alternate scene, now we can.

See Daisy Ridley, Gwendoline Christie, Adam Driver and more train for their fight sequences in ‘The Last Jedi.’

If the most recent trailer for Star Wars: The Last Jedi left you craving more, then you’re in luck. Lucasfilm has debuted the official Japanese trailer for the upcoming sequel, featuring our first look at a few familiar metal faces along with some new footage — it’s not too much, but it’s just enough to make the latest trailer worth a thorough peek.

Game of Thrones Season 7 never circled back to the one true pairing we really long to see, Brienne and Tormund. The one look that launched a thousand ships will hopefully keep making sexy bread-eyes into Season 8, but Gwendoline Christie tells Seth Meyers that Kristopher Hivju keeps it going off-screen regardless.

With Force Friday comes the “Journey to The Last Jedi” expansion of the Star Wars universe: a whole slew of novels and comics that will provide the backstories and fleshings-out of many of our favorite new trilogy characters. One of those, Captain Phasma, will be getting her own novel titled Phasma, which will explain a little more of just how exactly Brienne of Tarth came to join the First Order.

Elisabeth Moss’ Top of the Lake will look very different in Season 2, and so will China Girl’s release strategy. SundanceTV will air the entire season over three nights this coming September.

Mileage may vary as to whether Game of Thrones owes any character a happy ending – let alone a pair of them – but few would deny the rare joy of Tormund and Brienne’s awkward pairing. “Few” being creators David Benioff and Dan Weiss, who now monstrously tease “we need to kill one of them.”
