Solo: A Star Wars Story writer wants to make a sequel

There is a slight chance Alden Ehrenreich might return as Han Solo.
Jonas Mäki Editor Sweden 25 November 2022

Even though Solo: A Star Wars Story was fairly well received and also universally appreciated by fans, it still became the first Star Wars movie ever to not return its investment by box office sales. As a result, there has never been a sequel made and most assumed it wouldn't happen.

The movie's screenwriter Jonathan Kasdan does not agree with this decision though, and speaking to ComicBook.com, he says he would love to make a part two if the opportunity arises:

"The reason for a Solo 2 is if there's a great reason, and certainly I'd be game if there was... there were so many great characters we were able to establish, and for me, the strongest argument for a Solo 2 is the movie was Alden's journey to owning that mantle, and by the end of it I thought he really did, and he didn't get the fun of getting to just inhabit it for a movie, so I'd love to see him back."

We most certainly wouldn't mind a second movie including Darth Maul, Qi'ra and most importantly Jabba the Hut. What about you?

Thanks Screen Rant.
