The filmmakers behind Solo: A Star Wars Story describe the movie as a neo-western and a heist movie. Screenwriter Lawrence Kasdan penned the script with his son Jon. He called the movie "a secret bromance" between Chewbacca and Han Solo. Kasdan said, "To me, this is a love story between Han and Chewie. Their relationship has always been my favorite part of the saga, and the fact that only Han understands what Chewie is saying, I find a very funny possibility for comedy."
Fans will got a glimpse of a big action sequence involving Han and Chewie in the trailer, which is further elaborated on in the new photos.
