Unsurprisingly for a Star Wars movie, the plot details of Solo are being kept under wraps. So we still don’t know much about the story of the movie, but we do know the main cast: Alden Ehrenreich will play Han Solo, Woody Harrelson is Beckett (his mentor), Emilia Clarke is Kira, and Donald Glover is Lando Calrissian.
