I was invited on an all expense paid trip to cover the amazing #HanSoloEvent from our partners at Disney
Let me preface this by saying I am a huge Star Wars fan. But that doesn’t mean I liked all the movies. There’s been a few I wasn’t crazy about. But I have had a love for Han Solo that goes back to when I was 7 years old and the movie had just come out. He embodies everything a man should be. He’s handsome, sarcastic, rides the line between good and evil and is just a decent human being. So when I heard they were making his story I was beyond excited.
Solo: A Star Wars Story Review with no spoilers
The movie kept me entertained and in my seat the entire time. I was not going to get up and go to the bathroom even though I needed to (and when I did I bumped into Emilia Clark there). It’s funny, charming, and action packed. I felt that Alden did a great job recreating the iconic role that Harrison Ford did. I wasn’t thinking this isn’t Han Solo I was thinking this is! Going forward I can see him continuing in this role. He did a phenomenal job. It’s a great stand alone story so even if you’ve never seen a Star Wars movie you will enjoy it and be thoroughly entertained.
And now here’s more info about the new Solo: A Star Wars Story movie.
Solo: A Star Wars Story Movie trailer and about the movie
Board the Millennium Falcon with me and let’s journey to a galaxy far, far away in SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY, an all-new adventure with the most beloved scoundrel in the galaxy. Through a series of daring escapades deep within a dark and dangerous criminal underworld, Han Solo befriends his mighty future copilot Chewbacca and meets the notorious gambler Lando Calrissian, in a journey that will set the course of one of the Star Wars saga’s most unlikely heroes.
I have to admit that Solo has always been my favorite Star Wars character. This movie means so much to my family. It’s my childhood. I’m beyond excited to go to the red carpet event for it and report back here for you guys. This is the first time in history that 25 bloggers have been invited to attend the red carpet for a Star Wars movie. It’s going to be amazing. You’ll want to tune in as I share live video on facebook in real time at the Star Wars red carpet so be looking for that on my facebook page and twitter here. Then grab my Solo Printables and check out how the trip would go here.
The film stars Alden Ehrenreich, Woody Harrelson, Emilia Clarke, Donald Glover, Thandie Newton, Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Paul Bettany. Before you go check out my Red Carpet post here!

It really is!

It will definitely be interesting to see how they do it – I can imagine some people finding it very hard to watch someone else in the role!

Both my husband and son are Star Wars fans. Not much of a fan like them, but I have enjoyed watching the previous Star Wars movies with them. So we’re going to watch this movie soon.

What a nice experience for you and it looks like another great movie of the year. I am sure my husband will definitely watch it.
