Aesthetically speaking, the film is bland, and sorely lacking in artistic direction. The action is as to it is not present enough, except for a few chases or a shootout. The acting also represents a big downside. Alden Ehrenreich, who embodies the main character, Han Solo, had to be credible. But unfortunately, like Donald Glover (Lando Calrissian, who suffers from a writing problem), it failed. The chaotic development of the film (the dismissal of 2 directors) did not initially bode well.
Still, some fans hailed the film, have been seduced by the performance of Alden Ehrenreich and did not fail to to show up for a sequel. The end of the feature film with the appearance of Darth Maul foreshadowed something, either the takeover of the Crimson Dawn syndicate by Qi’ra embodied; by Emilia Clarke (Game of Thrones). In 2020, we learned that if a sequel in the form of a film was excluded, the cast would have to be resumed for a future series. It will be understood shortly after that it will be the future series Star Wars: Lando Calrissian.
A shocking announcement?
In a recent interview with; Vanity Fair, Kathkeen Kennedy, president of Lucasfilm, spoke about the film and explained thatthe studio was no longer considering recasting actors to play iconic characters. A way of showering the last hopes as to a return of the smuggler in a future series?
Solo (2018) was one of the first ideas that came up when the company has been sold. With screenwriter Larry Kasdan, we honestly thought it was a good idea. But there should be times along the way when realize things. And we learned a lot with this film. Some think that Solo should have Being a series, but doing a series on Han Solo without Harrison Ford in the role, çit comes down to the same thing.
We know yet Donald Glover, present in the film as Lando Calrissian will therefore be entitled to; his series next year. We obviously quote Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan Kenobi, but that’s the point. of a particular case as long as the actor is anchored in character for over 20 years.
This seems to be a disguised way for Kennedy to tell us that Alden Ehrenreich, who was so disappointed in the role that he will not be reappointed. As a reminder, we know that this experience was complicated for the actor, who for example received advice in 2017 to work with an actor coach on set. Moreover, trying to match, or at least come close to, the performance of an iconic actor like Harrison Ford is not easy.
We understand in any case ` Through Kennedy’s statement that the Lando Calrissian series should be the last project based on on the youth of characters.
