Phil Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 They already have experience with the Millennium Falcon from The Lego Movie, but now Phil Lord and Christopher Miller are going to sit at the controls of the real thing. The filmmaking duo has been signed on to direct the third movie in the Star Wars stand-alone series, a story that focuses on the adventures of a young Han Solo. The announcement by Lucasfilm on Tuesday confirms an EW report from nearly two years ago that the studio was developing a story about the early years of the space pirate, along with a separate movie about Boba Fett and his ragtag group of rival bounty hunters. Josh Trank was set to direct the Boba Fett movie before parting ways with Lucasfilm in May, and has not yet been replaced. The Han Solo story had never had a director announced until now. http://www.ew.com/article/2015/07/07/han-solo-movie-phil-lord-chris-miller-star-wars?hootPostID=454a55e3d85844183c0ffaede01a34e2 -- http://i.imgur.com/s5AQTIk.gif Five bucks says Chris Pratt gets the lead. :rofl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRangers92 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Nah itll be Shia Labeouf ;) But yeah I have my hopes up for this. Lord and Miller are a perfect match for the humor and tone this will need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoMinutesForNothing Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I was about to say Labeouf as well before I even read your comment. He's perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siddious Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I was about to say Labeouf as well before I even read your comment. He's perfect. Shia lebouf is not perfect. He is a terrible actor. And I fear for the over saturation of Star Wars material coming now. Episodes 1-3 were bad enough. Now there's 6 new movies coming... Part of me is excited but part of me feels like they're going to mess this up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Panarini Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Chris Pratt should just do every good movie Harrison ford did. Honestly I'd love for him to be Han. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRangers92 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 He might be too old for it if they want to do young Han. He's already older than Harrison Ford was when the first Star Wars came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I am Scags Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Yea with his personality and looks Pratt would be my first choice. Shia LaBouf fuck that guy. Shitty actor with an odd and shitty attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea but he has that young look. I mean maybe there is another actor out there who is younger and can carry that role. Who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew a Penalty Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 As much as I like Chris Pratt, he looks nothing like Harrison Ford. As mentioned he's also too old. They'd probably want someone in the 25-30 range playing Han around 20-25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morphinity 2.0 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I'm gonna be Han Solo for Halloween, so I'll do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 They're probably go with someone like Liam Hemsworth and we will all cry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Depending on how young they go, maybe this kid: Uriah Shelton http://image.tmdb.org/t/p/w342/22Eeguq2RgnHTgbQMF9VY4aSiFT.jpg http://www.cinemaretro.com/uploads/STARWARSFORD.jpeg He was Corey Mathews' little brother on Boy/Girl Meets World.

Dave Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Ansel Elgort He'd probably be pretty good. He's a decent actor. He did smug pretty well at times in The Fault in Our Stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
