Mark Hamill drops a Solo: A Star Wars Story spoiler

May 8, 2018 by Gary Collinson

Warning. A minor Solo: A Star Wars Story spoiler follows…


We’re just a little over a fortnight away from the release of Solo: A Star Wars Story, and appearing on the Cape Up Podcast, Star Wars: The Last Jedi’s Mark Hamill has accidentally let slip a minor – and not-too-unexpected – spoiler about the upcoming Anthology movie.

“Anthony Daniels was so happy, ‘cause he’s in every single Star Wars movie,” said Hamill. “Every single one. All the prequels, he’s in Rogue One, he’s in Solo… Whoops! I hope that’s not — erm… but anyway, he’s in every single Star Wars movie. That’s not such a reveal — all Star Wars fans expect him to be in every movie.”

It would certainly be strange to see a Star Wars movie without C-3PO and R2-D2 making an appearance (kind of like no opening crawl…), although one would have to imagine it won’t be any more than the briefest of cameos, similar to what we got in Rogue One.

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, Tien Hoang (Now You See Me 2) as Moloch’s henchman, Paul Bettany (Avengers: Infinity War) as Dryden Vos and Warwick Davis (Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi) in an as-yet-unrevealed role.
