DoesSolohave a post-credits scene? Thanks to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and other comic book movies that have adopted it now,post-credit sceneshave become common practice for major movies these days. However, the Disney eraStar Warsmovies have not yet adopted this particular trope. So, does the Han Solo movie break that streak? We have ourselves an answer, as the movie recently held its world premiere.
Warning: potential spoilers ahead forSolo: A Star Wars Story. That is, if you consider knowing if there’s a post-credit scene a spoiler. With that out of the way, the answer is no. Disney and Lucasfilm still haven’t gone down that road and thisStar Warsstandalone will not feature any sort of post-credits stinger. So, if you need to use the bathroom after watchingHan and Chewiedo their thing for a couple of hours, don’t feel like you need to hold it throughout the duration of the credits.
We know thatSolowon’t feature a post-credits scene, but what can we expect? The vast majority of the reactions from the premiere have been overwhelmingly positive so far. Even though there won’t be anything after or during the credits, Peter Sciretta of SlashFilm did say that there is some “Marvel-level s***” that happens in the movie that might hint at where Lucasfilm is heading next." What does that mean exactly? Unless you’re one of the lucky folks who has already seen the movie, your guess is as good as anyone’s, but it sounds like we’ve got some teases for the future to look forward to. Another thing we know is that Alden Ehrenreich, who has tofill Harrison Ford’s shoes, has signed a three-picture deal with Lucasfilm, so he could very well show up in futureStar Warsmovies.
With or without a post-credit scene, it looks likeSolo: A Star Wars Storycould be the palate cleanser many fans need after the divisive experienceThe Last Jediturned out to be. This, despite the fact thatSolohad a very troubled production. Ron Howard came in after Phil Lord and Chris Miller (The LEGO Movie) were fired by Lucasfilm. Hereshot about 70 percent of the movieand, miraculously, it sounds like the movie worked out. At the very least, it’s clear this thing isn’t a mess and that’s pretty amazing, all things considered.
Maybe at some point down the line the newStar Warsmovies will adopt post-credit scenes. There are plenty of opportunities, with the series of movies in the works fromGame of ThronescreatorsDavid Benioff and D.B. Weissas well as Rian Johnson’s upcoming trilogy. But for now, the credits are just the credits in a galaxy far, far away.Solo: A Star Wars Storyarrives in theaters on May 25. This was previously reported byWe Got This Covered.
