GAME OF THRONES Actress Emilia Clarke Joins The Cast Of The HAN SOLO Origin Movie
It's just been announced that the still untitled Han Solo movie has added another cast member, and it's none other than the Mother of Dragons herself, Emilia Clarke. More past the jump...
Star Wars.com has just officially announced that Emilia Clarke (Game of Thrones, Terminator: Genisys) will join Alden Ehrenreich (Han) and Donald Glover (Lando) in the Han Solo Star Wars Anthology movie, which will focus on the early days of the iconic space smuggler and his closest allies. Though her character is not named, the site does reveal that "Clarke’s role will round out a dynamic cast of characters that Han and Chewie will encounter on their adventures."
Apparently the likes of Kiersey Clemons, Tessa Thompson and fellow Game of Thrones alum Jessica Henwick were also in the running for this part.
The untitled Han Solo movie, helmed by directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, is set for release in 2018.
