Wojo 2,453 Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Aaron Paul to star as young Han Solo in Gareth Edward's Star Wars film? It isn't even confirmed that the first spinoff film was about Han Solo; The last rumor was that it was a heist moving about the Bothans who stole the Death Star plans.Which Death Star? Two Death Stars, two sets of plans. Bothans were tied to the second station, but not the first... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightscape94 965 Posted December 30, 2014 Author Share Posted December 30, 2014 Paul is the exact same age that Ford was (if not slightly older by the time it films) when he did Star Wars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max 141 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 I could see that working. Sabine could lead the group of bounty hunters who steal the plans to the first Death Star, which would support the other rumor that's been floating around. She could be leading the bounty hunters on behalf of the Rebels without abandoning the Rebels entirely. Interesting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nightscape94 965 Posted March 12, 2015 Author Share Posted March 12, 2015 I guess we should expect a December/May tandem release for Star Wars titles until the end of time. Is Gareth Edwards making Godzilla 2 as soon as he's done with this?I think that's the plan. They already announced that he's signed on for the sequel.

mstrox 6,651 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Are you kidding? Williams is already writing the score and JJ wanted it to move it UP to THIS summer!That depends on what rumor you believe. There were two rounds of rumors that Abrams was pushing for a later May 2016 release due to script/production issues (around the time he came onto the project, and around the time that Ford hurt his leg). There was a more recent rumor that Abrams wanted to move it up to Summer 2015 (to avoid any further spoilers/leaks).The marketing machine is in motion, and any significant move will derail publishing, toys, comics, miscellaneous branded products, etc. The movie will come out this December.
