It seems that the runtime for Solo: A Star Wars Story has been revealed.
While fans are recovering from the divisive Star Wars: The Last Jedi, a film which has just picked up four Oscar nominations, attention is starting to turn to Solo: A Star Wars Story.
The anthology movie is only four months away from release and while there is as yet no trailer for the movie (rumoured to be arriving shortly), we have had an official synopsis released in recent days, and now we have news of the film’s runtime.
When researching the film on Google, the search engine lists Solo’s runtime as 2hrs 23mins. It’s unclear at this point where Google is sourcing this information from, however.
The 143 minute reported runtime is shorter in length than 2017s The Last Jedi (150 mins) but longer than Rogue One’s 133 mins. Solo would also be longer than each film in the Original Trilogy.
