The young Han Solo Star Wars spinoff finally has a name: Solo: A Star Wars Story.
Ron Howard is directing the movie and revealed the title via Twitter on Tuesday.
The Disney and Lucasfilm origin story stars Alden Ehrenreich as the iconic smuggler alongside Donald Glover as Lando Calrissian. Woody Harrelson, Emilia Clarke and Thandie Newton are also among the cast. Solo is Lucasfilm's second Star Wars stand-alone movie, following last year's Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
Howard took over directing duties in June after filmmakers Phil Lord and Chris Miller were let go due to creative differences over style and tone between the duo and Lawrence Kasdan, the veteran screenwriter who penned the script with his son Jon Kasdan. Howard has been teasing set pieces and character hints on Twitter for the past few months, and on Tuesday he thanked the cast and crew for their hard work as production wraps up.
Solo: A Star Wars Story hits theaters May 25, 2018.

It must have taken them at least 12 parsecs to come up with that one.

So was Ron Howard able to unfrick the movie or what?

Not surprising. All of the anthology films are going to have "A Star Wars Story."

The title could have been way worse

Will Opie let Han shoot first?

Are we all overlooking that this will be the shortest wait between SW movies IN HISTORY???

Should have called it "Never Tell Me the Odds: A Star Wars Story"

First SW movie I have zero interest in seeing.

Movie ends with Han meeting Chewy

Scruffy-Looking Nerf Herder.
And I'm really looking forward to the eventual story of Luke Skywalker after the rebellion.

This movie might suck, and It's not my fault!: A Star Wars Story.

Parsec is a unit of distance not time.

Yes, everyone knows that.

That doesn't make any sense when applied to Han's claim.

There are explanations that make sense.

History
The Kessel Run was one of the most heavily used smuggling routes in the Galactic Empire.[4]Han Solo claimed that his Millennium Falcon "made the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs". A parsec is a unit of distance, not time. Solo was not referring directly to his ship's speed when he made this claim. Instead, he was referring to the shorter route he was able to travel by skirting the nearby Maw black hole cluster, thus making the run in under the standard distance. By moving closer to the black holes, Solo managed to cut the distance down to about 11.5 parsecs. The smuggler BoShek actually beat Solo's record in his ship, Infinity, but without cargo to weigh him down. A few months later, Han Solo beat both his own and BoShek's records in a run he made with Luke Skywalker.[3]
