    What Ron Howard Says About More “Solo” Spinoffs

    Mary Anne ButlerBy Updated:2 Mins Read

    The more we go back and watch “Solo: A Star Wars Story,” the more we like it. It’s adventure, intrigue, action, and cheeky comedy all wrapped in a “Star Wars” package. It also seems to be something that a larger audience than one would think wants more of, either in an additional film, or a possible Disney+ series.

    This is something director Ron Howard has thought about, and recently commented on while speaking with the Lights Camera Barstool Podcast.

    No rumblings on it. This is not a spoiler, but I think there is interest in those characters. I think there’s interest in gangster world somewhere down the line. But I can assure you there is nothing being developed right now. Either for a movie or Disney+. But one great thing is there has been a lot of affection shown for Solo in its afterlife. And so of course that keeps boding well for them to eventually turn it around.

    Let’s remember that Howard had said previously he’s not opposed to directing more “Star Wars” projects in the future, and he’s currently at work on “Willow” the live-action continuation series at Disney+.

    Ron’s actress-turned-director daughter Bryce Dallas Howard has also made her mark on the galaxy far, far away, having directed an episode of “The Mandalorian” in season 1, and another episode in season 2.

    Would you want another “Solo” movie? Or maybe even a Lando movie?!

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
