Solo: A Star Wars Story 2018 Spoiler Thread
http://www.starwars.com/news/donald-...and-alone-film
Donald Glover is officially a young Lando Calrissian! Lucasfilm announced today that Donald Glover, an acclaimed actor, award-winning writer, and Grammy-nominated artist, will be playing the part of Lando Calrissian in the still-untitled Han Solo Star Wars film, helmed by directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller. Glover will join Alden Ehrenreich — previously cast as Han Solo — in bringing two iconic Star Wars characters back to the big screen, but at a time in their lives previously unexplored. This new film depicts Lando in his formative years as a scoundrel on the rise in the galaxy’s underworld — years before the events involving Han, Leia, and Darth Vader in The Empire Strikes Back and his rise to Rebel hero in Return of the Jedi. “We’re so lucky to have an artist as talented as Donald join us,” said Lord and Miller. “These are big shoes to fill, and an even bigger cape, and this one fits him perfectly, which will save us money on alterations. Also, we’d like to publicly apologize to Donald for ruining Comic-Con for him forever.” Glover is best known for creating and starring in the critically acclaimed FX series Atlanta (which had the highest premiere numbers for any basic cable comedy show since 2013), as well as for starring in four seasons of the show Community, and for his Grammy-nominated album Because the Internet, performed under the name Childish Gambino. In addition, Glover appeared in the Academy Award-nominated The Martian, and will be seen in the upcoming Spider-Man: Homecoming. The untitled Han Solo movie is set for release in 2018.

From some of Disney's merchandising partners:
“One month ago, a Han Solo sizzle reel was shown to Disney licensees and people were very impressed with it. They were especially impressed with Glover and Ehrenreich. Alden will do just fine as young Han.” |

Here's what I was told today. Take it for what it's worth but it's from a big time cinematographer:
"You don't **** with Lawrence Kasdan". FYI, he was so pissed off with the dailies and the script variations that he hopped on a jet from LA and flew as fast as possible to London. He's a legacy guy and carries a lot of weight. |

Yes, Lord & Miller deviated from the script so heinously that Kasdan lost his shit. After consulting with KK, they fired Lord & Miller.

Kasdan's just being an old school hard ass. Nothing wrong with that when you have his reputation. |

I only know this because I wrote an essay on the male gaze In the movie and how Kasdan's choices separated the film from the original text. God graduate school sucked.
