The Anthology films dont come with the baggage of being part of a trilogy. The directors are free to do as they will.

Star Wars was created under the assumption there would be no sequels. Lucas took his best ideas from his saga and crammed them into the '77 film. It is an excellent piece of standalone cinema as a result.

The Han Solo films can be done very well with a charismatic actor. In fact, Solo could easily become a successful serial. Just a bunch of one off space adventures. I hope they keep the emo out of it. I dont really care to see his orphan childhood.
