Second trailer for Solo: A Star Wars Story lands online

“Heist” is the word of the day, as Solo’s latest trailer showcases a decidedly different feel than most Star Wars films. In this fresh look at the movie, we get a further look at young Han, but also the supporting cast.

Not exactly solo for Solo

What did you think?

I actually liked it. I liked the first trailer a lot as well, maybe a little more honestly, since it focused more on the title character than anyone else. This one though, gives a more complete look at what Han’s world will hold for his first headlining film. And pretty much all of it seems pretty cool.

Actor Donald Glover’s Lando comes off really well, and nicely in line with Billy Dee Williams’ version of the character from the original films. I’m digging the supporting cast as well, particularly Woody Harrelson’s outlaw. The only thing I didn’t care for was the droid and that’s just because I’m sort of done with smarmy robots. Does there need to be one in every Star Wars movie (I guess so)?

Overall though, I’m excited for Solo: A Star Wars Story. Between this and Rogue One, I’m getting the feeling that I’m going to dig the “Star Wars Stories” a lot more than the “saga” films under Disney.

The movie opens in theaters on May 25th.
