Solo: A Star Wars Story concept art features radically different Dryden Vos designs

June 2, 2018 by Gary Collinson

While it’s unlikely we’ll ever know exactly what changes Ron Howard made to Solo: A Star Wars Story, one aspect of the film we do know he was responsible for in its entirety was the villain Dryden Vos, with Howard casting Paul Bettany in the role after Phil Lord and Chris Miller’s original choice Michael K. Williams was unavailable for the reshoots due to scheduling issues.

Prior to the director shake-up, it had been revealed that Williams’ Vos would be an alien character, portrayed via motion capture. And now, thanks to CBM, we’ve got a look at some concept art which shows a number of radically different early designs for the Crimson Dawn gangster; check them out here, and let us know what you make of these designs in the comments below…

A new adventure with the most beloved scoundrel in the galaxy. Through a series of daring escapades deep within a dark and dangerous criminal underworld, Han Solo meets his mighty future copilot Chewbacca and encounters the notorious gambler Lando Calrissian, in a journey that will set the course of one of the Star Wars saga’s most unlikely heroes.

Solo: A Star Wars Story features Alden Ehrenreich (Hail, Caesar!) as the famous smuggler, Donald Glover (Atlanta) as Lando Calrissian, Woody Harrelson (War for the Planet of the Apes) as Tobias Beckett, Joonas Suotamo as Chewbacca, Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Fleabag) as L3-37, Emilia Clarke (Game of Thrones) as Qi’Ra, Thandie Newton (Westworld) as Val, Ian Kenny (Sing Street) as Rebolt, Harley Durst (Wonder Woman) as Moloch, Jon Favreau (Spider-Man: Homecoming) as Rio Durant, Paul Bettany (Avengers: Infinity War) as Dryden Vos and Warwick Davis (Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi) as Weazel.
