Young Han Solo Movie Loses Its Directors Over Creative Clashes

Something about a May 2018 Han Solo origin film has felt a little fishy, a little too soon after this December's Episode VIII: The Last Jedi to actually be true. The hovering snafu appears to have landed, with pretty uniformly successful directors Chris Miller and Phil Lord exiting—or being fired from—the second A Star Wars Story spinoff film.

The Lego Movie and 21 Jump Street duo had been filming Alden Ehrenreich (Han), Donald Glover (Lando), Woody Harrelson (Han's mentor) and more heavy-hitters in London since February. The Hollywood Reporter's sources say the Han Solo movie has a few weeks left of filming with reshoots coming in the next couple months.
