    I hope they cast Jane Lynch as her stunt double.

    I was thinking this as well. If they're tackling the whole Nightsisters thing, you gotta have Talzin in there. Christie would certainly be tall enough. Of course, I understand it's probably more likely that they're playing new characters we know absolutely nothing about, but still, I could see it. (BTW, that "darkside" pic really does remind me of Mother Talzin/the Nightsisters, so I wonder...)

    Yep that's the first thing that came to mind! She's definitely wielding a light saber!

    That could work. I think with her height and her experience with fighting, it's going to be some physical role. I can't see her as a senator just sitting around! :)

    Gwendoline's Announcements is the most interesting. She going to rock the light saber!

    I've seen some speculation that since she looks a little like Palpatine (before the wrinkles) she could be his daughter - or grandniece:

    Never seen her act (Which is the case of all the actors/actresses here besides the Big Three and Co), but she seems like a very cold-hearted militaristic type, just off appearance. I read she's also very tall for a female, which makes me wonder if that will come into play at all.

    A red wig (or hair dye) - and she could be Daala?

    I'm not familiar with this actress at all (I absolutely loathed the first Game of Thrones book so I have actively avoided the show), but judging by look alone, I think she definitely has some star wars qualities. Will be glad to see what role she's given.

    It's too bad that her name is already Gwendoline, because that is such a good "character" name. Credits are going to look funny if it's like "Jane Smith - Gwedonline..."

    I think she'll be a villain. She's great on Game of Thrones as a good guy but I'd love to see her play evil. She's got the right stature for it too. We need some more Mandos, so I hope she's Mandalorian. It would also be great if her first scene was like her first scene on GoT where she's decked out in full armour kicking ass, lol

    I really love her in GOT, but I'm hoping that her character in this is distinctly different. I can definitely see her owning a villain role.

    I'm not familiar with the actress (haven't watched GoT yet...I'm holding out until I finish the books), but judging from her appearance alone, she seems to fit the role of the strong, militaristic-type. With that said, I can certainly see her and Von Sydow's character working hand-in-hand as the villains.

    Okay, who wants to bet we will hear: "Aren't you too tall for a stormtrooper?"
