Following “creative differences” with Lucasfilm, the directing duo of Phil Lord and Christopher Miller were fired from Solo: A Star Wars Story in 2017 and replaced with Ron Howard.
In a recent interview, Howard spoke about coming onto the project and what it was like replacing the duo.
Despite having to come on and replace the pair, Howard said he actually spoke with Lord and Miller and that their relationship was completely fine afterward.
I had some really comforting conversations with Phil and Chris, who let me know that they weren’t leaving because I was coming in,” said Howard.
