Reports surfaced in July that this Han Solo spin-off will start a new trilogy, with Alden Ehrenreich reportedly signing a three-picture deal with Disney.
It is believed that this trilogy will bridge the gap between the first spin-off to Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope.
With Alden Ehrenreich already confirmed to play Han Solo in Disney and LucasFilm’s new spin-off, the rest of the cast and crew are starting to come together.
Bradford Young is also listed as the Star Wars spin-off’s cinematographer on the film’s IMDB page.
