THOR: RAGNAROK Star Tessa Thompson Among Those Testing For HAN SOLO Female Lead
We know that Alden Ehrenreich will play Han Solo in the iconic character's upcoming Anthology movie, but who will join him? Hit the jump for an update on the actresses testing for the female lead role...
It looks like we're one step closer to learning who will join Alden Ehrenreich in Han Solo as Variety has revealed three of the actresses testing for the spinoff's mysterious lead. Apparently, Tessa Thompson (Creed), Naomi Scott (Power Rangers), and Zoe Kravitz (X-Men: First Class) were all in London this week taking part in the second round of tests, but it could be a couple of weeks before we hear anything.
With production not starting until early next year, directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller have plenty of time to find the right person for the role many believe will end up being revealed as Sana Solo.
A more familiar name also being cast is Lando Calrissian. While Donald Glover was said to be a favourite for a while, the trade adds that, "Disney and Lucasfilm still wanted a second round of tests to be certain on their decision." Billy Dee Williams is a tough act to follow, so you can understand why Disney is being cautious with that role. Han Solo is currently set to be released on May 25th, 2018.
