Aaron Paul Responds To Those 'Han Solo'/STAR WARS Spinoff Rumors

It was reported not too long ago that Aaron Paul (Breaking Bad) is being considered for a role in Gareth Edwards' Star Wars spinoff, with Han Solo a possibility. Before you get your hopes however, the actor has now responded to these claims via his Twitter account...

It was recently reported that Han Solo might make an appearance in Gareth Edwards' Star Wars spinoff, and that Aaron Paul is attached in some way to the project. Rumour has it that the movie focuses on a team of Bounty Hunters hired to steal the plans of the first Death Star. 

Though there are a number of movies Paul will be seen in this year, his schedule does appear to be pretty light, something which more than likely isn't helped by the unfortunate luck he's had with some of the choices he's made since Breaking Bad ended (Exodus: Gods and Kings for example). 

As you can see below, Paul has now taken to Twitter to seemingly debunk the rumour. It remains to be seen whether he does head to a Galaxy Far, Far Away in 2016, but hopefully Lucasfilm, Marvel, or DC Entertainment scoop up the talented Emmy Award winner sooner rather than later.

God. I really hope he's sincere. Like the guy but can't see him as Han.

LOL as much as I love Aaron Paul... I could not picture him as Han Solo at all. But I would really like to see him in a Star Wars movie!

dear god... this would be one of the worse casting ever.

does the person that started this rumor even know the personality of han solo? you think a guy that cannot act can pull off han [frick]ing solo? lmao...

@Chaud Need for Speed is one of those enjoyable bad movies for me.

People are losing their minds. None of these rumors ever said that Aaron Paul would play Solo

Please...just no. I had enough of him when he was throwing temper tantrums over action figures.

@SuperCat Nobody has reported that he's attached as Han. This has been stated a few times already.

His tweet is neither a denial nor confirmation that he's in the film.

He was incredible on Breaking Bad. I wanted to hate him, because Jesse started out so damn annoying, but damn if he didn't become my favorite actor on the series.

He stated before he even did NFS that he was intentionally going to make his next project mindless and corny to get away from how intense BB had been. Don't judge his acting based on that throw-away project!

@StarkRaving Good point! That's just what I would tweet if I was in the movie but trying to eep it quiet... Hmmm...

@Reasonnnn -I was thinking the same thing. I never heard that he would actually play Solo. I heard he was attached to it and that's it. Spectulation is becoming reality to some people.

@ grif

Good actor in a crappy movie. I thought Ben Affleck and Tyler Perry were terrible until I saw them in Gone Girl.

@SuperCat Same. I would've been pretty annoyed at the idea as well.

you guys think he could pull off a comic book role? i could kind of see him as hal jordan, wouldn't be my first choice though...

Sweet Christmas. Now keep him away from Iron Fist too. I have yet to be impressed by his acting. I am up for suggestions on films he has done that are not the same type character. Need to see more versatility from him.
