For one, why were Han and Leia no longer together during the events of Star Wars: The Force Awakens? It looks like the upcoming novel, Star Wars: Aftermath – Empire’s End is going to explore just that, as teased by a recently released excerpt from the book.
Sadly, because Han Solo was killed in Star Wars: The Force Awakens and because Carrie Fisher recently passed away, making Star Wars: The Last Jedi her final appearance as General Leia, we won’t really ever get to explore this part of their relationship on screen.
It is very likely that her relationship with Han will be talked about, given that his death wasn’t really explored much after it happened in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. As for Han Solo, though Harrison Ford is done with the character, filming just started on the young Han Solo anthology movie, which is due out next year, so we will still get to see the legendary Star Wars figure in his smuggling days.
“Following Star Wars: Aftermath and Star Wars: Life Debt, Chuck Wendig delivers the exhilarating conclusion to the New York Times bestselling trilogy set in the years between Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens.”
