Lawrence Kasdan says the Han Solo Star Wars spinoff will shoot in January

May 31, 2016 by Gary Collinson

Earlier this month Disney and Lucasfilm announced that they’ve found their young Han Solo in Alden Ehrenreich, and now screenwriter Lawrence Kasdan has revealed that production on the Star Wars Anthology movie will kick off in January.

“You know, Chris Miller and Phil Lord are going to direct it,” said Kasdan (via Star Wars News Net). “They’re great, funny and imaginative and we’ve had a great time together. My son [Jon] and I wrote the script and Chris and Phil are working on it and they’re about to move to London to start shooting in January. And it should be fun.”
