The next movie after that will be Han Solo: A Star Wars Story, which is set for release May 25, 2018, exactly 41 years after this iconic character was first introduced in Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope.
Later this year, the beloved Star Wars franchise will continue with the first spinoff, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, which will be followed next year by Star Wars: Episode VIII in December 2017.
Hopefully we’ll have more casting and story details soon, so stay tuned for more on Han Solo: A Star Wars Story.
