Solo: A Star Wars Story running time revealed

April 15, 2018 by Gary Collinson

Last week it was announced that Solo: A Star Wars Story will premiere next month during Cannes, and now thanks to the festival’s website we know what running time to expect for Disney and Lucasfilm’s second Star Wars Anthology movie.

According to the film’s listing, Solo will run for 2 hours and 15 minutes. For comparison, that’s the same running time as Star Wars: The Force Awakens, two minutes longer than Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, and 17 minutes shorter than last year’s Star Wars: The Last Jedi.

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 and Paul Bettany (Avengers: Infinity War) and Warwick Davis (Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi) in as-yet-unrevealed roles.
