This update comes from Jon Kasdan, who co-wrote the Star Wars standalone alongside his father, Lawrence Kasdan, who is something of a legendary figure within the franchise.
But as Jon Kasdan points out, between The Mandalorian, the Cassian Andor series and the Obi-Wan Kenobi series, there is an abundance of live-action Star Wars on deck for the streaming service already.
It does have a great many fans and appreciators, which helped get the Solo 2 movement going in the first place.
Disney+ seemed like a good home for Solo 2, be it as a series or a movie.
