It goes without saying that Disney's first few years handling the Star Wars franchise didn't go as expected and the once-promising sequel trilogy ended up becoming a massive misfire. Despite the sequels failing to hit the mark with longtime followers of the Skywalker saga, we can't ignore the fact that it still had a few redeeming qualities, including The Force Awakens villain Captain Phasma played by Game of Thrones star Gwendoline Christie.
Phasma had tremendous potential to be a great villain but ended up becoming a short-lived character in the franchise. However, her true fate was left open-ended after she was dumped into a fiery pit by Finn during their battle. Now, Star Wars author Delilah S. Dawson is teasing the future of Phasma which may sound encouraging to a lot of fans.
Taking to Twitter, Dawson promoted her 2017 book which chronicles the backstory of Captain Phasma. In a subsequent tweet (which she deleted), Dawson revealed that she has a pitch ready in case Lucasfilm decides to revisit the character. Check out what she had to say below:

We've seen the craziest of things happen in a galaxy far, far away and the idea of Captain Phasma getting the Boba Fett treatment wouldn't be too farfetched to actually believe. Now, whether or not she actually returns to the Star Wars franchise remains to be seen and despite rumors of Lucasfilm developing Episode X, the production company currently has a lot on its plate with the whole MandoVerse thing going on.
Meanwhile, you can get your Star Wars fix, including the divisive sequel trilogy over at Disney+.
