I think the guy is talented and at least somewhat resembles Ford. Some of the names being thrown around absolutely baffled me.

I’m much more concerned with what the story is going to be. I, like most, think this is a film that really doesn’t need to be made. However, if it’s done right, it could be interesting. I hope it’s not just a throwaway adventure that has no bearing on the character’s development.

As the new beginning of Solo’s character arc, they really need to do something to add to the character’s complexity, and not let it just be a cash grab adventure of the same old Han Solo from ANH.

I would prefer they do some story that involves telling us WHY he is so self centered in ANH. Why he shuts people out and doesn’t really care about anyone but he and chewie. A story like that would I think actually add something to the character and make the whole film not completely pointless.

I’m intrigued to see what they come up with. They’ve definitely got a lot of talent involved so I hope it turns out well.
