Among the many, many reasons to be excited for Solo is the film's supporting cast, which may have already eclipsed the title character with just one trailer.

Donald Glover's Lando is already a highlight, but Emilia Clarke's Qi'ra, Woody Harrelson's Beckett, Phoebe Mary Waller-Bridge's L3-37, Thandie Newton's Val, and Paul Bettany's mystery gangster are sure to garner plaudits too.

It's a cast jam-packed with talent, and while Han himself is bound to be the centre of attention, one can't help but think that the characters around him are destined for greater things, especially with Glover and Clarke leading things as Lando and Qi'ra respectively.

It's still Han's film, but with an ensemble as good as this, who could be blamed for thinking otherwise?
