“You get to watch him become who he is,” Ehrenreich says of his character.

The episode features interviews with Ehrenreich, Howard, and the other new faces of the franchise, including Lando Calrissian (Donald Glover), Dryden Vos (Paul Bettany), Qi’Ra (Emilia Clarke), Tobias Beckett (Woody Harrelson) and Val (Thandie Newton).

“Solo is really about the lessons that Han is learning and the people teaching him those lessons,” says Newton.
