20 Things You Somehow Missed In Solo: A Star Wars Story

4. Indiana Jones Easter Eggs

In a setting such as Dryden Vos' office, with so much going on in the background in terms of display, it would almost be criminal to have just one easter egg in the shape of Mandalorian armour. There are literally limitless Star Wars artefacts that could have been included, but Solo also opted for a detail from another franchise entirely.

Harrison Ford has had a career the likes of which few could hope to match, but there is no denying his two biggest and greatest roles. Of course, these are as Han Solo and Indiana Jones. Both coming under the Lucasfilm banner, it made perfect sense to include a little nod to Ford's other iconic character in a film about Han Solo.

The nod in question came when Beckett and Han first meet Dryden Vos. With so much going on you'd be forgiven for missing the Golden Idol from Raiders of the Lost Ark on the table behind them, and if this wasn't enough, there was also a literal crystal skull on display in honour of Indy's fourth movie.
