Han will accomplish his legendary feat (legendary enough to be remembered in the whole galaxy by spaceship tech-savvy individuals like [[Film/TheForceAwakens Rey]] decades later), that is taking the Kessel Run smuggling route with less than 12 parsecs at lightspeed with the Millennium Falcon, which is record-breaking.

They'll be established to be LikeBrotherAndSister. Given the reaction to Sana, you'd think Lucasfilm would've learned by now that any ship involving Han besides Han/Leia would end with ugly fan reaction.

[[WMG:Hondo Ohnaka will be a friendly antagonist]]
Jim Cummings was at 2017 D23 but something happened that made him cancel is Comiccon appearance (which was at most a week later and in the same city) to fly to London first class for an NDA role. This was right around the director switch. Jim Cummings has also talked about how much he hates filming in Live Action so whatever brought him to London was immediate and needed him on set (mocap?)

Hondo is also a popular, establish, criminal character with a model and a VA meaning that if the plot was reorganized Hondo can either infodump or provide a rivalry. We also know he lost his crew and ship due to the empire some time before Rebels started. If this is 10 years before Ep 4 and Rebels is about 5 years before Ep 4 this is a good time for his fortunes to go south.

He's also the lead in the new Star Wars Falcon ride. Chewie lets him borrow the ship. The movie will let people who don't watch Clone Wars/Rebels know who he is and will explain why Chewie lets him borrow the ship when they haven't met in the TV shows.

[[WMG:The Millenium Falcon was originally an Imperial Cargo Ship.]]
The trailer seems to show Han enlists as an Imperial Pilot, and the interior of what is possible the Millennium Falcon, fresh out the Shop, seems to show an Imperial Colour Scheme. So, like how in Legends, Han was transporting Wookie Slaves, but choose to liberte them, one of them being; Chewbacca?

In ''Film/EmpireStrikesBacl'', it's revealed that Lando lost the Millennium Falcon to Han years earlier but there seemed to be some discrepancy as to how fair the deal was with Han flip-flopping as to whether or not he believes Lando still holds a grudge. This movie will not only show how Lando lost but it will be a RunningGag with the two of them arguing throughout the movie as to who the ship belongs to.

[[WMG: There will be no Force-sensitive characters in this movie]]
As a first for Star Wars movies, this one will not involve anyone with Force powers (at least not in person). This will explain why Han was so skeptical of the Force in the past. He has never witnessed it before.

Given that the only conceivable characters we know and cherish to actually get a chance to meet Han are Lando and Chewie it seems difficult to shoehorn in some other character. However, Rogue One managed to mention Hera in an offhand way (much to the rejoicing of fans) and it had a cameo by Senator Santos of Texas. And Darth Vader or the Emperor are of course possible over-arching villains that while they probably won't make face to face meetings with Han or his friends, they are likely to be alluded to / show up in a news report or slaughter some red shirts.

[[WMG: The Film will re-canonize Han's background as an Imperial deserter]]
It's really the simplest path they could take with the film. Heck, ''Literature/AftermathLifeDebt'' has already hinted at it, albeit vaguely:

->'''Han''': I saved him, at least that's what he says, the big fuzzy fool, but really, he saved me. I was on a bad path, and Chewie, he put me straight.

Now for the "wild" part of wild mass guessing, I'll outline my thoughts for the plot: we open on a young Han living a destitute life as an impovershed youth, when he attends the mandatory Empire Day celebrations and is inspired by some recruitment propaganda promising a better life. Like Rogue One, this sequence ends with the title card and then flash-forwards to him as a cadet at the Imperial Naval Academy, where he's regarded as an excellent leader (foreshadowing his eventual promotion to General in the Alliance) but terrible at following orders.

He's given some guard duty for a shipment of Wookiee slaves as part of his training, where he meets Chewbacca, has a change of heart, and defects. He goes on the run with Chewie (and possibly some of the freed slaves) and looks for help, which he finds in the form of Lando. They have some daring escapades evading the Empire, a bounty hunter probably gets involved, yadda yadda. The film ends on another flash-forward, this time to the fateful card game where Han won the Millenium Falcon from Lando.

[[WMG: The main villain will be Thrackan Sal-Solo.]]
Thrackan Sal-Solo will be played by Harrison Ford because Thrackan looks and sounds like an older version of his cousin Han Solo. Thrackan will be trying to conquer their home planet.
* Thrackan is only supposed to be 4-5 years older than Han, not 40-50.

[[WMG: Han will see a lightsaber in action.]]
This would make his "good against the living" comment in ''Film/ANewHope'' make sense.

[[WMG: Han and Chewbacca's first meeting will be shown.]]
Possibly in a flashback. We will see how Chewbacca went from the lieutenant of a Wookiee chieftain in ''Revenge of the Sith'' to a smuggler's co-pilot in ''A New Hope''.

[[WMG:Jabba the Hutt will appear.]]
As Han's employer prior to the events of ''A New Hope'', it would be logical for him to appear at some point.

[[WMG:Han will have a run in with Greedo.]]
This would make Greedo's comment that he's been looking forward to killing Han for a long time make sense. It may also reference the "Han Shot First" controversy.

[[WMG:IG-88 will be the main antagonist.]]
Or at least have a role in the film.
* He's still alive in ''Empire Strikes Back'', so being the main antagonist is unlikely. But he or one of the other bounty hunters (Dengar, Bossk, 4-LOM, Zuckuss, or Boba Fett) could appear.

[[WMG:There will be a flashback to the Clone Wars.]]
Han would've been a young child at the time. Possibly Corellia was invaded and this is how Han's parents died.

[[WMG: C-3PO and R2-D2 will cameo at some point in the film.]]
Because tradition dictates that they put in an appearance. They have appeared in every ''Star Wars'' film so far.
