This morning's teaser trailer for Solo: A Star Wars Story featured looks at several new characters, including the ones played by Thandie Newton and Phoebe Waller-Bridge. Newton's character, whose name is Val, is seen briefly in the trailer wearing a winter coat and carrying a large blaster. You would be forgiven if you didn't notice Waller-Bridge in the trailer because she is playing the droid L3-37 in a motion capture performance, as rumored, (similar to what Alan Tudyk did in Rogue One).

The character names were included in a Lucasfilm press release, which also confirmed that Woody Harrelson's character's name is Beckett (but, thanks to Harrelson, we've known that for a while).
