Star Wars: Everything Is Awesome When Han Solo Gets a Spin-Off Film
We can't wait to see more of our favorite Nerfherder!
Christopher Miller and Phil Lord, the duo behind The Lego Movie and the 21 Jump Street movies, are taking on a new project...in a galaxy far, far away.
The two are tackling one of the Star Wars anthology movies for their next directing project The two will lead a movie that will focus on a young stuck up, half-witted, scruffy-looking Nerfherder - ahem, we mean Han Solo.
"This is the first film we've worked on that seems like a good idea to begin with," the duo said in a statement. "We promise to take risks, to give the audience a fresh experience, and we pledge ourselves to be faithful stewards of these characters who mean so much to us. This is a dream come true for us. And not the kind of dream where you're late for work and all your clothes are made of pudding, but the kind of dream where you get to make a film with some of the greatest characters ever, in a film franchise you've loved since before you can remember having dreams at all."
Here's what Star Wars won't be showing at Comic-Con
Lawrence Kasdan (co-writer for The Force Awakens) and Jon Kasdan will write the script for the project, which is currently set for a May 25, 2018release.
