We already have a Rogue One thread, I'd suggest renaming this one "Star Wars: Han Solo"

Edit: actually, you created the other thread, Dob. LOL

Directed by Chris Miller and Phil Lord (um, yeah, not too thrilled about that), and written by Lawrence and Jon Kasdan (which is good news).

So when the time comes for casting, this guy already played a young Harrison Ford in Age of Adeline. Looks and expressions wise he'd be perfect...just don't know how well he can act.

I was actually wondering the same thing....if he would end up being type cast as the young Harrison Ford.

Disney is going to wring the Star Wars universe dry. On the plus side it is not a Boba-Fett movie.

That'll be anthology movie #3. ;)

Were this any other property, I'd say Disney runs the risk of running this franchise straight into the ground through over-saturation; but it is Star Wars... fans will just about eat up anything that's thrown at them.

when i first the title of this thread, i thought finally they're going to release an unaltered trilogy on bluray.

Disney's gotta make back that 4 billion somehow. I have to admit, I am dying to see the internet 5 years from now. Will it be mostly pleasant surprise or a whole new era of raped childhoods? :)

It makes sense that they would do a solo Han (chortle) film, being one of the most popular of the original characters. I suppose the big question is how far off the map are they going with these films. As always, I fear for the paralyzing effect that nostalgia seems to have on modern directors making these kinds of franchise films. If they are retreading old ground, I'd at least hope they open up the universe and avoid the "hyperlinked" problems of the prequels that made the Star Wars universe feel lifeless and small.

Star Trek was like that too, up till Nemesis.

Han Solo got the scar from a speeder accident while he wasn't wearing his seat-belt ;)

I thought he got it by launching a prison into low orbit.

Even as a kid, I had trouble accepting Stars' End, the building, taking off like a rocket. To the extent that it's pretty much the only thing I remember from the book, because it overshadowed EVERYTHING.

I remember really liking the A C Crispin novels about Han. They felt like the movies.

I just hope they work in that Fett Short Story.

Looks alright but too short.

They can "shoot around" his height. I doubt we'll even notice. Besides, the new co-Chewie is 4 inches shorter than Peter Mayhew.
