If the rumors are true, Solo dies.

Was there anything to substantiate those rumors though? I always thought that was just over-speculation by super fans, based on Harrison Ford wanting to be killed off back during ESB/RoTJ, and his distaste for the series towards the end of the OT's production.

I think everybody involved in this production wants to see the original characters reunited at some point (hopefully many points) throughout this new trilogy. It really doesn't seem like it is going to happen in this movie, although I admit that we have seen so little it is hard to tell. But I don't see Han being killed off before having a chance to reunite with his old friend Luke.
