A new TV spot forSolo: A Star Wars Movieis really focusing in on the origin story aspects of the movie, with Han (Alden Ehrenreich) talking about being a pilot and needing, of course, a co-pilot. But it also injects a little humor in the end there, withWoody Harrelson’s Tobias Beckett teaching Chewiehow to play Dejarik. These scenes seems to suggest thatSolois going to be absolutely full of references for fans to pick up on, with jokes hingeing on some of that, but if it’s going to be a successful movie (and one accessible to those who aren’t already entrenched as Star Wars fans), then it’ll need to be a lot more than a trip down memory lane.
The film starsDonald Glover, Woody Harrelson, Emilia Clarke, Thandie Newton, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Joonas Suotamo, andPaul Bettany.Solo: A Star Wars Storyopens May 25th.
