Despite the revelation last week of Andy Serkis' character in "The Force Awakens", much of Supreme Leader Snoke as well as Captain Phasma, may remain a mystery even after the movie hits theaters.
According to a March article on the fan site Making Star Wars, it is rumored that Snoke (referred to as "Uber" in the article) will only have about 3 short scenes in Episode VII. While Captain Phasma will likely have more screen time than Snoke, she's being compared to Boba Fett in that she doesn't really do much in the first installment..
If this turns out to be true, then we can use the original trilogy as an example of how it may be done. In Episode IV, the main antagonist was Darth Vader. The Emperor was only mentioned by name. In Episode V, we only saw a glimpse of his face during a holo-transmission for less than a minute.
Supreme Leader Snoke is being introduced in a similar fashion. The focus will be on Kylo Ren as the antagonist in Ep. VII, while the Supreme Leader's screen time will amount to nothing more than a few minutes. The focus will shift onto him through the next 2 installments of the trilogy.
Captain Phasma will have more screen time than Snoke in Ep. VII, but just like the first look at Boba Fett in Ep.V, we won't really know who she is. More will be revealed about her in the Episodes VIII and IX.
