HAN SOLO Co-Director Chris Miller Shares Photo of Han's Favorite Weapon

Phil Lord and Chris Miller, the guys behind the Jump Street reboot, Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, and The LEGO Movie, are directing the upcoming Han Solo origin spin-off movie, and Miller has taken to social media to celebrate Star Wars Day today by sharing a photo of a prop that will presumably appear in the film:

Seeing an image like this makes me roll my eyes at the idea of a Han Solo prequel — are we going to find out exactly Han got his blaster? Who cares? — but I have so much faith in Lord and Miller, I think they'll find a way to take what should be a terrible idea and turn it into something that's immensely enjoyable.

While an official decision has not yet been released about who will play the role of the young smuggler, Hail, Caesar! breakout star Alden Ehrenreich was reportedly the frontrunner for the part a couple of weeks ago. The untitled Han Solo film is being written by Jon and Lawrence Kasdan, and it's set to hit theaters on May 25th, 2018.

For a good blaster at your side, kid. The clip is from "Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope".
