* When Han and Chewie are in chains as part of the plan, they learn that they're to be taken away to be clipped and tagged. Han gets a weird look on his face as he asks "What are they clipping?", possibly worried about what the answer [[GroinAttack might be]].



* Han starts bragging to folks on how he "made the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs" (none of them seem to care and go about their business). When Chewie growls, Han shrugs and says "not if you round it down."

* When Creator/RonHoward [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Yw2y03EDaE announced]] that filming officially wrapped up on 17 October 2017, he asked if he could reveal the long-awaited title. Cue the arms of Chewbacca handing him a sign with ''[[CaptainObviousReveal Solo: A Star Wars Story]]''. And he was quite {{adorkable}} the whole time.
* The first trailer ending with "I thought we were in trouble there for a second, but it's fine. We're fine." almost feels like a meta-joke on the TroubledProduction of the film, complete with a sudden DiabolusExNihilo proving Han wrong providing some TemptingFate and SelfDeprecation.
* Someone took the trailer for the movie but [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oM_WvP4bVKs replaced the music]] with the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lg_FoEy8T_A "I'm Han Solo"]] song from ''Star Wars Kinect''. It actually adds a slightly more playful tone to things (down to making it so that a soft *ding* sound plays when Lando smiles as if to indicate that his teeth are giving off a glimmer).
* The fact that the film was called 'Red Cup' during production -- and then it teamed up with Solo Cup, the ubiquitous red cup of parties, keggers etc.
* Ron Howard [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6XERmXsP-U recapping]] [[Film/ANewHope the first film]] in the style of his narrator from ''Series/ArrestedDevelopment''.
* Creator/PhoebeWallerBridge was completely unfamiliar with ''Star Wars'', and was lost when she was asked to make her audition more "droid-y." Luckily, she was able to pick up from one of the crew members' hand gestures that she was supposed to be a robot.
* Once the film was released, it turned out that [[spoiler:Ray Park]] had been trolling the internet and hinting at his role in the film for quite a few months. When he and Creator/EwanMcGregor saw the film at the premiere, [=McGregor=] nerded out to say the least, and his friend could barely hear his own scene!
* Creator/CharlieCox's story of blowing his audition for Han, because after years of playing [[Series/Daredevil2015 Matt Murdock]] his eyes tend to act more like a blind person's, and everyone was weirded out by his refusal to look right at them.

** The line was originally from a deleted scene where Han was drummed out of the fighter corps for crashing his TIE into a ship. The setup was apparently so nice they had to keep it in.
