Ron Howard, winner of an Academy Award, disclosed that he had conversed with the creator of Star Wars, George Lucas, following his selection to helm Solo: A Star Wars Story in 2018. It’s worth mentioning that they had a prior history together, as Howard made an appearance in George Lucas’ 1973 film American Graffiti and collaborated again on the legendary fantasy movie Willow from 1988.
The movie “Solo: A Star Wars Story” was penned by Jonathan Kasdan and Lawrence Kasdan. This film serves as a prequel, featuring Alden Ehrenreich portraying the young Han Solo – a much-loved character previously played by Harrison Ford. Alongside him in this space adventure were actors like Woody Harrelson, Emilia Clarke, Donald Glover, Thandiwe Newton, and Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
What was George Lucas’ Star Wars advice to Ron Howard?
In a recent chat with Vulture, I found myself reflecting on the unique experience of stepping into the director’s chair for “Solo: A Star Wars Story,” following Phil Lord and Christopher Miller’s departure mid-production. Remarkably, these two gentlemen were nothing but courteous and gracious throughout the entire transition process.
Howard stated that he watched the entire film, noted some exceptional aspects, and throughout this evaluation process, both Phil and Chris were very cordial. He explained that they seemed to have different perspectives on the movie. Howard enjoyed his time working on it, but emphasized that there was no personal bias involved in the movie itself. Unfortunately, he expressed disappointment. However, he is eagerly anticipating their next production.
Moreover, Howard mentioned that Lucas offered him a piece of advice prior to his commitment to the Han Solo prequel. Essentially, Lucas told him, “Remember, it’s aimed at 12-year-old boys.
