Han-Solo

Sure, the first standalone Star Wars film, Rogue One is still several months from hitting theaters this December, but the next one is already in active development. Chris Miller, who is co-directing the as-yet-untitled Han Solo "Star Wars Story" film with Phil Lord, gave a tiny tease for the film today.

"Can't wait to get 'shooting'!" he wrote on twitter for May the Fourth, aka Star Wars day. The picture he included? Well, Han Solo's signature DL-44 heavy blaster pistol, of course.

While there hasn't been any casting announcement for who will play the character of Han Solo, we do know that the movie will take place in the time between episodes three and four, when Han Solo first became a smuggler. With Star Wars Celebration Europe being just a couple of months away, we may get our first real details for the film there.
