The movie, having failed to achieve $400 million on the field workplace and receiving combined critiques (its Rotten Tomatoes rating got here out to a 70%, and our personal Matt Donato gave it three/5 stars), was thought-about a flop, at the least by Star Wars requirements.
Nonetheless, maybe essentially the most damning consequence of the Ron Howard image is the sudden cessation of standalone anthology movies. Many, together with collection icon Mark Hamill, perceived this film to be one of many main causes behind “Star Wars fatigue.”
With that stated, Solo followers have flocked onto Twitter at present in assist of a possible, however actually unconfirmed, sequel. Actually, #MakeSolo2Happen is at present trending, and you’ll try a number of the tweets beneath.
Right now is the anniversary of @RealRonHoward’s Solo image. It was an amazing movie and deserves a sequel. What do we have to do to #MakeSolo2Happen?
I am not signing any petitions or something, however I’ll categorical my devoted curiosity to the idea on twitter.

Although the movie was divisive, I believed it fended off its monstrous expectations effectively sufficient. When it comes to the casting and performances, Woody Harrelson’s at all times a pleasure to see, however younger actors Alden Ehrenreich and Donald Glover, who had the unlucky and doomed duties of filling within the sneakers of Harrison Ford and Billy Dee Williams, made the phantasm work for me.
What most followers are most likely excited to see, nonetheless, is the return of Darth Maul, who made an look on the story finish of Solo. And provided that Ray Park, the actor behind the horn-headed villain who reprised his position for the primary time since 1999’s The Phantom Menace, has already stated he’d be down for a sequel, the ball might already be rolling at Lucasfilm.
However what say you? There have been loads of individuals on the market who rejected the thought of the primary Solo: A Star Wars Story, so how does the potential for a second one sound?
