Nicklab:
Really? Okay. Netflix threw a boatload of money at these guys, and I suspect that between that and the GoT final season reviews it wasn't a difficult decision for these guys and Lucasfilm to party company.
So what's next?
I'm still excited by the news that Kevin Feige is developing a Star Wars project. And combine that with the Russo Brothers having "dropped by" Lucasfilm to appear on The Star Wars Show, I think that something really positive could be in the works between them.
Jeff:
I guess I'm not surprised that the hundreds of millions from Netflix they got lead to this, but its a bummer because it will just be more fodder for the "Disney Star Wars is a train wreck" folks. Stuff like this happens all the time in Hollywood but for some reason when it happens in Star Wars it's somehow Mickey Mouse or Kathleen Kennedy's fault. ::)

I'd love for this to re-open the idea of doing a second Solo film with Han and Chewie working for Jabba, running into Boba Fett for the first time, etc. So much potential there for OT Imperial run-ins and what not.

I think there's genuine momentum and optimism for a sequel to "Solo". The podcast associated with Star Wars News Net has gained some traction with their #makesolo2happen movement. And I agree, it seems to be fertile ground for some fun storytelling.
