In a surprise announcement today, director Ron Howard revealed the official name of the untitled Han Solo film: SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY. The announcement came in a post in which the acclaimed filmmaker (with a little help from an anonymous Wookiee) thanked his cast and crew as principal photography wrapped.
