More is known about the behind-the-scenes brouhahas on this Star Wars spin-off than the film’s plot. With reports that Disney hired an acting coach for star Alden Ehrenreich (Hail, Caesar!), plus the sudden departure of directors Phil Lord and Christophe­r Miller (The LEGO Movie) just a month ahead of the end of filming, it’s certainly been a chaotic ride for this Corellian space cowboy. Things settled down when Ron Howard was brought on to oversee the final months of filming, though, and with Solo also starring Donald Glover (as Lando), the stage is set for what we’re hoping will be the best space Western since Joss Whedon’s Firefly.
