[[WMG:If a Boba Fett movie gets made...]]

We might see/learn more about the big smuggling screwup that had Jabba put a bounty on Han's head during the years he worked for the Hutt between ''Solo'' and ''A New Hope''.

* Half-and-half. [[spoiler:While Han does win the Falcon from Lando it isn't until right at the end of the film. It's teased in an earlier scene but Lando cheats to win the game. Han is later able to steal Lando's cheat card and wins the Falcon fair and square, as he claims in ''Empire''.]]

[[WMG: Cad Bane will be the main villain or at least get a cameo]]
He never gets any closure after TCW aside from a brief cameo as a painting in ''Rebels''. And what better movie would he fit into but a space western?

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 route with less than 12 parsecs at lightspeed with the Millennium Falcon, which is record-breaking.

* Seemingly confirmed in the trailer, a shot of what appears to be ''Millenium Falcon'' corridors bright and spotless white.

[[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?

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.

[[WMG:Qi'Ra will be TheMole or have some kind of FaceHeelTurn]]
That outfit she wears in one of the trailers, with the long, swooshy shoulder-cape, looks pretty similar to past villains like Krennic. Plus, being betrayed by a childhood friend would contribute greatly to Han's cynicism. Bonus points if she constantly tells Han to "trust the Force" or pretends to be Force-Sensitive.

[[WMG: Beckett is the real main villain.]]
Dryden Vos will be a DiscOneFinalBoss, after which Beckett will betray Han in some capacity and become the true villain. Maybe he'll steal Han's cut, or cross some kind of moral line that puts him at odds with Han, or he just kills Vos and takes over the crime syndicate. He might betray the entire crew, or the crew will betray Han at Beckett's behest. This is largely due to his trailer quote about betrayal, there needs to be a CynicismCatalyst for Han, and Woody Harrelson is adept at playing charming yet terrifying villains.

In what we see the Falcon doesn’t have its iconic front-facing “mandibles.” However, if the Lego Set of the Solo Millennium Falcon is any thing to work with, it could be that some type of Cargo Container, or Escape Pod, goes between the two mandibles? The Cargo Container may get jettisoned, during the Film, giving the Millennium Falcon its Iconic Look? It could additionally be the Cargo of Spice, which Han later owes Jabba money for, and we see Han dump the Cargo, during the chase with the Imperials?

Since they need to be written out of the story by virtue of being new old characters. It would make more sense for Qi'ra and Han to just drift apart in some way or another, but this is not likely to be a valid reason for Lando not having his droid anymore by the time he becomes administrator of Cloud City.

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.

** The Trailer seems to confirm that Han shall be shown to have enlisted as an Imperial Pilot, so him libertarig some Wookies (one of them being Chewbacca) is likely?
