5. A New Face
This will divide so many loyal fans,but it is a point we'll have to get over: Han Solo will be portrayed by someone other than Harrison Ford. Not only is the spin off going to be a prequel, the time lapse between A New Hope and the present putting Ford out of the question, but Ford has reportedly signed on for Episode 7, meaning he'd have to skip his way between two entirely different projects of the same character, something I doubt any actor could manage. Believe me, the spin off will be better off for having a new actor fill the infinitely large boots left by Ford. It will be a guessing game of epic proportions for a while, as will a lot of things related to the new films, but believe me when I say that I hold hope for whoever will play Han.
