Maybe the Force is with Ron Howard. <br /><br />At least that’s what LucasFilm is thinking, according to the Hollywood Reporter, because they’ve hired Howard to direct a Han Solo movie after two previous directors were fired for “creative differences.” <br /><br />According to the Hollywood Reporter, LucasFilm says “We’re thrilled to announce that Ron Howard will step in to direct the untitled Han Solo film. We have a wonderful script, an incredible cast and crew, and the absolute commitment to make a great movie. Filming will resume the 10th of July.” <br /><br />Howard’s first order of business will reportedly be to improve morale, review what’s been filmed already and figure out what needs to be re-shot. <br /><br />Hey, Howard has been to space before with Apollo 13, but hopefully this time there won’t be a problem to tell Houston, or LucasFilm about. <br />
