Disney reveals Han Solo anthology movie

Bdlive.co.za, has an interesting story today—Han Solo will get his own anthology movie! In an interview with Disney Africa senior vice-president Christine Service, Service revealed upcoming Disney Star Wars plans:

The Force Awakens was one of a series of films that would extend the Star Wars franchise. These could be split into two series — one that looked at the Skywalker family, and the other that explored events and characters beyond that saga. In this second “anthology series” two films were in planning, the first already being filmed and a second that would delve into Han Solo’s backstory.

Also in the news:

Disney had acquired rights to toy company Lego’s Star Wars series and would release animated films using the Lego characters.

Service said there was not much more to reveal about the Disney plans for Star Wars — which includes a new electronic game in that series. “It’s being drip-fed to all of us,” she said.

Woohoo! Animated Lego Star Wars series! The Lego movie was awesome, so it’s great that there will be a series featuring the Lego mini figures of the Star Wars characters!
