Scruffy-looking untitled Han Solo film thread
- Thread starter Skywalker
- Start date
Honestly, I would have been very surprised if this movie didn't have Lando in it.
I've heard that Donald Glover is at the top of the list to play Lando. I want Danny Pudi as Lobot.
I watched a couple of interviews online and he seems charming and likable enough. He's a bit short at 5'9, but then he is supposed to be the young Han Solo so I guess they kind of have an excuse there.
That makes Ehrenreich 2 inches shorter than Harrison Ford.
They have started narrowing down the list of actresses for the female lead. Could this be Sana Solo? I haven't actually read the comics with her yet, so I don't if make sense for her to be in the movie.
In the comics the marriage was sort of a sham thing, but she's been kind of a cool supporting character...and it's hardly the first time a character introduced in the comics has crossed over to other Star Wars media. I actually remember some speculation that she was Finn's mother last year! (Still can't rule that one out 100%, though I guess).
She's actually sort of an updated version in a sense of Salla Zend from the Dark Empire comics, who got expanded on in the old Han Solo books interestingly enough.

Also perhaps it could lead to an appearence by Darth Vader supporting character Dr. Aphra, who has a history with Sana:

That's fantastic! Donald Glover is just a remarkable fellow. Love his work on 30 Rock, Community, and Atlanta in particular.
Not quite who I think of when I try to imagine a younger Billy Dee Williams, but I'm willing to give him a chance.
My hope is that "what you pulled" was more recent than when this film will be set. Perhaps related to the same misadventures that got him in trouble with Jabba. But seeing as the two were supposed to be in their early 30s in ESB, that doesn't leave much room in the timeline considering the ages of the actors being cast to play them.
"A long time ago" like say, the few years Han has been muddled up in the Rebellion? It seemed clear to me that Han was overstating things there. Trying to convince himself as much as anything else.
