1. Boba Fett Is In it

The Rumour: There was aggressive scuttlebutt ahead of Solo's release - encouraged by some blurry, ambiguous set photos - that the most feared bounty hunter in all the galaxy, Boba Fett, would make an appearance in the movie, setting up his own recently-confirmed spin-off film.

The Truth: Again, this could've worked, but no, Boba Fett is nowhere to be seen. Given the rather Fett-like appearance of Enfys Nest, it's probably for the best, really.

A Boba Fett movie will sell itself rather easily (in theory, at least) so it's wasn't necessary to provide a blatant, pandering lead-in here (as cool as it might've been).

Which of these tasty Solo rumours did you buy into it? Which ones did you see straight through? Shout it out in the comments!
