Word came down yesterday that actor Woody Harrelson is currently in early talks to join the cast of the upcoming young Han Solo standalone film in the role of a mentor. While this can only be looked upon as rumor material for the time being until we hear differently from Lucasfilm, an article on The Hollywood Reporter states that Christian Bale was at some point being considered for the film’s same mentor role.
Woody Harrelson is in early talks to join Alden Ehrenreich in the Han Solo Star Warsstand-alone film, Heat Vision has confirmed.
If cast, Harrelson will play an early mentor to Ehrenreich’s Solo. Disney and Lucasfilm were looking for a big name for the role — a search that, at one time, included Christian Bale.
