Ron Howard addresses possibility of Solo sequel coming to Disney+
When Solo: A Star Wars Story was released in 2018, it became the lowest-grossing film of the Star Wars franchise with middling reviews. Despite the tepid reaction, fans are still holding out hope for a sequel. Recently, many of the folks involved with the film have been fielding questions about a follow-up due to their involvement with the new Willow series on Disney+.
"I'm not a producer on Solo," Howard explained to The Hollywood Reporter."I came in in support of the project and for my long relationship with George [Lucas], Kathy [Kennedy], and Larry Kasdan. So I have not even been in conversations about it. One would assume that there's some characters there that could go much further, but I'm not sure where Disney+ is going with the Galaxy.
Does Jonathan Kasdan Want a Solo Sequel? Jonathan Kasdan wrote Solo along with his father, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi scribe Lawrence Kasdan. The younger Kasdan was recently asked about a potential Solo sequel, and he revealed he wants to bring back Emilia Clarke as Qi'ra and see Lucasfilm take the same"Special Presentation" approach as Marvel. However, he admitted to ComicbookMovie.com that he's"conflicted" about the idea of making Solo 2 happen.
"Yes, you know, I've been very conflicted about it over the past couple of years," Kasdan admitted."I feel that too. I'm certainly one of those people, and when that time of year rolls around, immediately, my imagination goes to all the things we intended to do. But then, on the other side, I'm so overwhelmed by how much great Star Wars content is coming into the world at this moment. I'm excited for the movie that Damon Lindelof is going to make.
He added,"That feels like there's so much fun. That was another version of there were so many great characters we were able to establish and, for me, I guess the strangest argument for a Solo 2 is that the movie was Alden's journey to owning that mantle. By the end of it, I thought he really did, and he didn't get the fun of just inhabiting it for a movie. I'd love to see him back.
