“During an adventure into a dark criminal underworld, Han Solo meets his future copilot Chewbacca and encounters Lando Calrissian years before joining the Rebellion.”

Okay, so maybe Han is into the fur coat game until he meets his future best friend and copilot Chewbacca and ditches that look completely. I don’t know? I’m sure we will get those answers in the movie. Another question is, is it Childish Landbino or Landoish Gambio? Can’t decide right at this moment, but thanks to Donald Glover, I’m fully on board with this.

Obviously going into Solo it will be extremely difficult to see anyone else play the iconic character that is Han Solo. I think no one should be playing this character but Disney needs some money. This is Harrison Ford’s character and his character alone in my mind, but I will say that Alden Ehrenreich doesn’t look to shabby. Han Solo is such a famous and iconic character that anyone else trying to play him is just not a good idea. Now I don’t know if Alden will be trying to imitate Harrison or if he will give Han Solo is very own treatment. I think meeting in the middle would be the best way to go.

Woody Harrelson, Paul Bettany, Emilia Clarke, Thandle Newton and Donald Glover. Now that is a stacked cast. This is one aspect of the film that I’m not worried about. It’s a well rounded, diverse cast. What I’m worried about is the directors getting fired, massive reshoots, apparently Alden needing acting lessons, and all around mess that went into making this movie. The trailer looks great, visually its stunning, it’s weird to see the Millennium Falcon looking crisp, clean and brand new. It has that throw back Star Wars look to it, which I found to be great. I say I’m worried about all of these things because the movie is slated for a May release and we are just getting our first look at it now. It’s common practice to release your first trailer for a massive summer blockbuster somewhere between 5-6 months out of its release. So that has a me a little skeptical.

Everyone is here for Donald Glover, he’s going to steal the show. There’s very few things that he can’t do in his life. He’s going to bring some much needed coolness to this movie, because Han kind of comes off as a dweeb in this trailer.
