Knew it! I'm happy with this news!
That is a relief to know! I hope Emilia Clarke is playing Tendra (or a similar character with another name).

He just wrote/directed/starred in FX's Atlanta, which is great. If it's being shown in Canada, you should check it out. One of the best shows this year.

Youch, I just realized there was a problematic joke in that sketch... I took away the video. I deeply apologize, by the way.

Awwww yeahhhhhh!!!!! I love Woody Harrelson. That guy is a great dramatic actor, but also as funny as he**. I can actually see Han learning the ropes from hard-bitten, down-on-his-luck, but dryly funny Woody Harrelson type.

Me too! It must be a big deal role because they were apparently looking at Christian Bale too. I absolutely love Christian Bale, but this kind of role sounds like it was tailor-made for Woody Harrelson!

Awesome casting! I think this movie is going to be amazing!

Ohhhh...it just struck me....in legends (Han Solo and the Lost Legacy, I think), Han Solo's old mentor Alexandr Badure asks him to go treasure hunting with him...and they seek out an old treasure....if I remember right, it was guarded by some old brotherhood, descended from some ancient order (read this years back....can't remember the details)
I don't know if there are Uncharted fans here but I would love to see Han and his mentor have a Nathan Drake and Sully relationship in the movie...and they go hunting for old treasure.... pursued by maybe the Knights of Ren?

More Han Solo movie news and rumors:
http://movieweb.com/han-solo-movie-woody-harrelson-garris-shrike-confirmed/
1. Woody Harrelson has confirmed that he is playing the role of Garris Shrike, a SW legends bounty hunter who brought up Han Solo and other orphans (he is a bit like Fagin from Oliver Twist). Another legends character has just hopped back into canon.
2. Emilia Clarke is rumored to be playing a female wookie (could be Dewlanna, a female wookie who brought up Han and who he considered to be like a Mother- but gets killed saving Han's life).... so some other actress could still play Sana Starros or another LI.
3. Chirrut Imwe is rumored to make an appearance in this novel (Does this mean Han visited Jedah?)
My theory is that this is possibly an adaptation of a legends story where a young Han meets Quinlan Vos when he is pursued by bounty hunters....there is a lot of action and acrobatics in the story so it makes sense to put Chirrut in this situation, especially since the guardians of the Whills were also hunted by the imperials. It could also be Han's first actual brush with a believer in the force.

Do you think this could be a spiritual adaptation of The Paradise Snare novel, like Rogue One was in many ways for Dark Forces? If Emilia Clarke isn't playing Dewlanna, she might be playing Bria Tharen. Also

Well, if Emilia Clarke is playing a Wookiee, than the Curse of the English White Brunettes might finally be broken...

I seriously doubt she's playing a wookie. I don't think they'd cast a 5'2 actress as one, much less a famous actress (although Gwendoline Christie and Max Von Sydow come to mind...) in a non-speaking role. I think she'll either be playing Bria Tharen (who's a red-head) or a completely new character. One idea I think would be cool is to have her play Han's mother in maybe a flashback or something. I've said before I think it would be really cool if Han's mother is in the film, her name would be Jaina like in Legends.

Bria Tharen is a non-force sensitive human in legends who is part of a force worshiping group, joins a group to steal the Death Star plans and dies during the battle.....that is pretty much Chirrut's story in canon so I don't see them retelling the story again especially if Chirrut Imwe appears in the Han Solo movie.
Another potential character Emilia Clarke could play is Tendra, Lando's future wife.
![Solo: A Star Wars Story [NO SPOILERS ALLOWED] - Page 5 Perso_risant_tendra](http://www.starwars-holonet.com/holonet/images/8/83/1478/perso_risant_tendra.jpg)
As for the female wookie rumor, if she isn't playing Dewlanna (who is a full adult wookie), she might play Mala (Chewie's love interest and future wife)..... Mala is canon and mentioned in ROTJ by Han who calls her beautiful (which means he has met her in person).....Mala would be an adolescent as would Chewie (they are casting a shorter Chewie for this movie since he is younger)....so she could also be on the short side. it would be a big twist if Chewie was the character with a love interest in the movie, not Han and Lando.

@panki I know who she is

Nah. I'm sorry but I cannot see them casting Emila - a well known actress in an iconic role - in one that mainly grunts and roars, I just can't.

@panki I know who she is. What I meant was do you reckon it could be an adaptation of some sorts like Rogue One kind of was for Dark Forces, with the same plot and similarities basically. And Bria doesn't have to follow the exact same path she did in Legends, but still be similar to her counterpart in many ways. But hey here's a thought - if she is in it, what if she joins The Church of the Force instead? Or at least some early version of it? I'm still done for her playing Tendra too - either one would be cool.
Nah. I'm sorry but I cannot see them casting Emila - a well known actress in an iconic role - in one that mainly grunts and roars, I just can't.
Haha....you're right....it would be weird to see her grunt and roar...

Maybe I'm biased but I'm hoping she is Tendra because that would silence a lot of antis who complain about the lack of interracial relationships in SW....give them one less reason to hate on reylo.

@panki LOL nope it really won't unfortunately. Jyn and Cassian is interracial, and that does not stop people from hating on Reylo. In fact, on tumblr lots of antis noticed that Reylos also like Rebelcaptain (the Jyn/Cassian ship name) and have started to hate on it as well, saying that Jyn is useless and not good enough for Cassian - no mention of them being interracial at all. Also look at the early reaction FinnTran is getting. That's way more progressive than a Black/White pairing and yet it's still being called racist because a POC isn't getting with a white person

"Red Cup" is the production name for the movie? Like a red "Solo" cup?
![Solo: A Star Wars Story [NO SPOILERS ALLOWED] - Page 5 Img_1010](https://i.servimg.com/u/f37/19/48/33/32/img_1010.png)
Lol, that's actually kind of cute. It fits with Han's (and Lando's) reputation since Solo cups are the most common disposable party/drinking cups (at least in the U.S).
I was initially a little resistant to the idea of a new Han Solo movie, but I'm actually looking forward to it now. I hope it's good!
