Ron Howard has officially wrapped post-production on Solo: A Star Wars Story, finally bringing the movie to the end of its long and winding journey to the big screen.
By all accounts, Solo essentially started from scratch under Howard’s watch, as the Oscar-winner reportedly reshot 80 percent of the material.
Especially on effects-heavy tentpoles, post-production can take a long time, and that’s even when there aren’t extensive reshoots taking place.
Star Wars fans might recall Rian Johnson wrapped post-production on The Last Jedi three months before that film debuted, but Episode VIII is more of an exception than the rule.
