New Han Solo

Right, so Han Solo gets his own faction now, right? A 'Solo' tag? We can finally make a whole party of Solos. Ha! Ha!

My question is: will the new young Han Solo character sprite look like young Harrison Ford, or that wanky actor who's trying to pretend to be young Harrison Ford?

Being that this is an animated fantasy game, they could sort of merge the features and make it look more Ford-y if they wanted. After all, it's about the CHARACTER. And since Han Solo has always been played by Ford, what Han Solo would look like when young would be like... Harrison Ford.

But... for rights and privileges and trademarking and what-have-you, I'm sure the new character will instead look like new guy, which means we'll have characters named Han Solo who look like Han Solo and then this one Han Solo who will SORT OF look like Han Solo, but not really.

I have very important thoughts and questions, people. I'm sure you'll agree.
  • God the movie hasn't even come out and people are already hating on the new characters. I'm all for warm fuzzy nostalgia feelings dude but give the guy a chance

    Also: Harrison Ford was a right twat btw ( not his character, the real person)

    Considering how unlike old Harrison the Old Solo looks like, I feel like he will look nothing like either.

    Meh. YOU give him a chance. I'm probably not even going to see this one until it comes out on Netflix. Market getting saturated and Han is one of my favorite characters - I prefer to leave his backstory a mystery, personally. I'll be me and you do you! No judgement here.

    Also: I've learned long ago to separate actors from the characters they play otherwise there'd be precious few characters I'd allow myself to like (Tom Hanks can't play EVERYBODY, you know, lol).

    Ha! You have a point. All the Hans will just look like oddly-similar looking cousins or something.
