If you don’t die laughing at the end of this video, you’re already dead. Those lucky dogs over at Collider scored a quick chat with Captain Phasma herself, and shot off a good round of quick-fire questions. Among Gwendoline Christie’s revelations are what kind of lightsaber she’d wish for (were she a Jedi), and how she’d rank the Star Wars films, but her best response is saved for last. Because after the infectious giggles comes the Chewbacca impression, and though you may argue over how authentic it is, there’s no denying this glorious woman’s charm. She is utterly open, unaffected and full of grace; TK better get out of my way because I’m in love.

You have to admire the way she quickly dispensed of the slightly awkward droid gender discussion and carried on as if it had never happened. And, left us all laughing as she maintained a brilliantly straight face…until that last second.
