What about that fellow from the Young Indy series? He's about the right age now to play Han in his prime.

There is only one person fit to play Han in his prime and that's Harrison Ford.

Do the Young Han Chronicles if you must or The Aged Han Yelling At Cloud Adventures but Han as an adult should not be recast.

Write around him.

Do a series set on his home world with people mentioning him or something. 

Yes, because seeing our beloved characters such as Vader or Boba Fett as annoying kids worked quite well. :P

Here's an idea - COME UP WITH SOMETHING NEW. The EU filled in all the story gaps on classic characters that SW fans craved for 30 years. It's f**king time to move on and realize it's possible that more than 10 interesting characters exist in the SW galaxy.

I don't care how pessimistic I sound. Every announcement just shows me that Disney is going to milk this crap dry, then do it again every 10 years.I don't care if these are just spinoffs. Instead of half assing a few spinoffs, why not collect resources into a brand new trilogy, then spring everything off that?

Disney and Kennedy are taking the lazy approach. If anybody thinks George treated the franchise poorly, watered it down, ruined the mystique of classic characters, and catered too much to children, I can't wait to see what they'll think in a few years of Disney and Kennedy.

Flame on!
