You may know her as Brienne from Game Of Thrones, but Gwendoline Christie also rocked up The Force Awakens as the super-shiny killer Captain Phasma, in a role that was rumoured to originally to be played by Benedict Cumberbatch before they decided to switch up the gender of the role.
She has returned for The Last Jedi, and we got to talk to her about just how difficult it is to keep a shiny suit like that so shiny.
Turns out if we rewatch the movie and sit through the end credits, there will be a couple of names assigned to that very job: keeping Phasma shiny.
