'SOLO': READY FOR MY CLOSE-UP!

On location in the Canary Islands.

To play the younger version of an established icon character as Han Solo was a challenge that young rising star Alden Ehrenreich ultimately took on with pleasing gusto, delivering a fine performance of vulnerability and cocky assuredness that the character's onscreen originator Harrison Ford would ultimately approve of by the time that Solo: A Star Wars Story was released in 2018.

'SOLO': HEIGHTENED INSTINCTS...


Newly arrived on Savareen, our heroes make their way back to the small settlement located at the refining colony, though Chewbacca's instincts for sensing potential trouble ahead are as as good as ever, in this scene from Solo: A Star Wars Story, out now on Blu-ray and DVD.

'SOLO': THE FIRST 'I KNOW'!


They only just got out of Kessel alive, he's been shot, and his beloved, highly polished Millennium Falcon has almost become a flying scrap pile. Lando Calrissian hates Han Solo for all that's happened to him and his ship, and tells him so, then gets a now classic response from the Corellian prior best known and used to equally great effect in The Empire Strikes Back. An inspired little comedy moment from Solo: A Star Wars Story.

'SOLO': A PARTING OF THE WAYS?


Newly arrived - and in true lightspeed nick-of-time - at the now little-used galactic processing station at Savareen, Han Solo has an in-the-making plan to double cross Dryden Vos with the Kesel hyperfuel. But can he rely on help from an unsure Tobias Beckett?
