Kanta’s Castle Podcast Presents the Pathway to The Last Jedi series.

Finn and Phasma, both were raised to do one thing. Finn or FN-2187 was trained from birth to serve the First Order as a Stormtrooper. To follow direct orders and never to ask questions. But, the moment he went from simulation drills to the Real Deal on Jakku, something inside him awoke. Humane conscience.

Phasma, like Finn, serves the First Order, but not from birth. But from a deep drive to do the one thing that makes her the ultimate Stormtrooper of the First Order, Survive! In her mind, a real Stormtrooper has no room for sentiment. A real Stormtrooper is the extension of the First Order and nothing less.

Finn and Phasma were raised to do one thing, but how are they a pathway to The Last Jedi? Will their actions in The Last Jedi affect the outcome of the Resistance and the First Order?
