Actor Woody Harrelson is heading to a galaxy far, far away for his next movie, playing a role in the second anthology Star Wars film focused on a young Han Solo.
Lucasfilm said on Wednesday that the 55-year-old Oscar-nominated actor will join Alden Ehrenreich, who will play the younger version of the smuggler and space pirate Han Solo.
The cast will also include Donald Glover, as a young Lando Calrissian, and Emilia Clarke, of Game of Thrones, in an undisclosed role.
The Hunger Games actor told Mashable in a Facebook Live that he would be playing a “mentor to Han, but I’m also a bit of a criminal”.
He added: “I don’t think I should say much more than that, because the Force is not allowing me.”
