Young Han Solo is a street orphan from planet Corellia who is caught stealing cargo by veteran smuggler Grath Beckett (Woody Harrelson). Impressed by young Han's skills, Beckett takes him under his wing.
Han (Alden Ehrenreich) and Lando Calrissian (Donald Glover) are rival smugglers for intergalactic mobster Ryn Lacard (Paul Bettany), smuggling spice and other materials past Imperial blockades through the Kessel field, a dangerous obstacle course. Lando has a pristine, fully operational Millennium Falcon. Han and Beckett have a rundown ship called "Lightspeed Thunder". Early on, they rescue Chewbacca from an Imperial prison convoy and he becomes part of the crew, but this upsets Lacard, who wants to avoid crossing the Empire.
Lacard is murdered by his power-hungry enforcer Cain (Ian Kenny), who frames Han, Beckett and Chewbacca. Cain captures Beckett in order to frame him for a bombing during a summit between the heads of the Lacard Crime Syndicate to select their new leader, allowing Cain to seize power. Han and Chewbacca escape and set out to stop him, aided by Lando and Beckett's estranged daughter Kira (Emilia Clarke), who is connected to the Rebel Alliance and leads her own crew, formed by Selu (Phoebe Waller-Bridge) and Stick (Warwick Davis). Cain then hires deadly bounty hunter Nyssa (Thandie Newton) to stop them.
Compared to all the other characters like even he's really unoriginal and boring

Han Solo was an Imperial pilot for a while, he was thrown out of military for saving Chewie. This is a well known fact.
Disneys fan fiction is non-canon.
Justin Williams
They need to have a scene where young Han literally bumps into young Leia and she calls him a scruffy-looking nerf herder.
That would be epic to the max poetry.
Nathan Edwards
Made me think of this guy. Would rather watch that than the new Star Wars.
Easton Robinson
i'd forgotten about that, but yeah, you're right.
Colton Johnson
Out of all the star wars characters you pick Han solo as your favorite lol nice bait
Connor Adams
When in the OT did they mention that?
Brandon Anderson

This would require showing Imperial military as something more than just Nazi alt-righters, if Solo was to be a part of them. Not gonna happen.
Ryder Campbell
sure this plot is alright but my enjoyment of the movie will really come down to the writing of the characters
Luis Ramirez
So they'll say it was a failure because not enough diversity and too macho. Screencap this. It's all part of their plan.
Jack Roberts
That would require writing and character development though.

Luis Watson
Aided by Lando, and Becketts estranged daughter Kira. (just Becketts daughter)
Luis Wright
What is the point of this movie? Seriously, who asked for this?
Luke Fisher
Donald Glover as Lando still disgusts me, we are truly in the worst era of Star Wars.
Benjamin Garcia
literally perfect casting wtf are you on about
Easton Edwards
>who asked for this accounting
Gabriel Martinez
While it won't flop, it'll probably underperform like Justice League did. The other poster is right, there's a lot less hype for the new Star Wars than you think. None of the movies past this point will gross over 1 billion, or even 800 million, more than likely.

SOLO is very comedic. There's a running gag about Han coming up with self-aggrandizing stories about himself that end up blowing up in his face, like claiming he broke up with Kira when they actually never dated because she turned him down.
There are also a few callbacks to the original movies. Han's blaster comes from Beckett, who also teaches him to "always shoot first" after being injured in a standoff with Nyssa. Han also says "never tell me the odds" during the final battle when he's making the Kessel Run to reach the assembly in time while being pursued by Nyssa. Nobody believes Han made the Kessel Run even though it's true.
Han also crosses paths with Darth Vader during Chewbacca's rescue and hopes he'll never "see the guy again".
Beckett sacrifices himself in the end, and Han and Kira part ways. She says he has a noble spirit, but he disagrees. The movie ends with Lando inviting Han and Chewie to work with him, but Han refuses, claiming that the real money is with Jabba the Hut in Tattooine, where he'll have "peace and quiet for the rest of his life". Before Lando leaves, Han challenges him to a card game (the one in which he'll win the Falcon).

emilia clark , dany glover they want that braindead millenial fanbase

I guarantee SJW's will try to claim it flopped because of white male lead
>Vader is in it
STOP
Jacob Sanchez
Ok, two cents on this schpeel. This sounds so freaking generic that it hurts. This movie will BOMB. I'm telling ya, BOMBBBBBB. Last Jedi looks decent and that's coming from a guy who fucking hated Force Awakens. I'm convinced that movie will perform critically and successfully.
Caleb Howard
EU fanfic is not canon. If it’s not in the 3 movies it doesn’t exist.
Landon Ward
So basically Han is Star Lord.
Ethan Lopez
>the murderer and main villain is literally called Cain about as subtle as a neon sign disney

I'd watch this if it was just the first part of Wall-E extended into an entire movie desu
