Han Solo Directors Reveal New Alien in Force For Change Video! Warwick Davis Joins the Cast?
The official Star Wars YouTube channel just dropped a new Force For Change video featuring Warwick Davis as he takes viewers on a virtual tour of the Han Solo set and reveals some interesting photos……or not. But patient viewers are indeed rewarded with a glimpse at a new alien from directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller. Hit the jump to watch the video and to get a glimpse at the new creature.
Here’s a shot of the new alien:
It’s also interesting that the directors mention that Warwick himself was a spoiler for the movie, indicating that he may be in the film as well. There’s no doubt in my mind that he will appear as he was also cast in TFA and Rogue One and continues to be part of the Star Wars family. This may just be a neat way to subtly confirm that he will appear in Han Solo as well.

Hated it in the snapshot… then I saw it moving! What a super cool guy!!
Probably will go the Bobbajoe/ Bistan route and won’t have more than 3 seconds of screentime, but awesome looking nonetheless !
This right there is why I am really looking forward to the Solo movie. Awesome directors who dare to produce a classic Star Wars movie with lots of humor and a pinch of Rick and Morty.
Looks like one of the old Stuart Freeborn/Rick Baker designs. I approve, despite my reluctance to see the movie. With the slavish attention LucasDisney have shown to recycling McQuarrie designs, I was always a little frustrated that Neal Scanlan wasn’t as faithful to Stuart Freeborn’s creature designs.
They were pretty faithful to the mon calamari. Twi’leks in Rogue one.
I didn’t mean reuse designs, I mean take inspiration.
Aren’t we fairly familiar with this alien? His race has been shown many times thru the Clone Wars and in background of the feature films… Or am I mistaken? I don’t think so, but that’s nothing new.
You are probably talking about the Gran species.
Kinda looks like six eyed gran.
This is a new alien. It has some similarities with the common Gran species though.
You’re thinking about the Gran, which has been a popular race since ROTJ. This is not the same, though it looks a bit similar.
This one looks like a Gran+Ithorian+Abednedo+6 eyes
Isn’t this a star wars Gran? https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ba5af037fd64f2f5f51518ba2a8fdf311ed8b12ab2a6b36565a2ac99c22b85f0.jpg
It’s as if a gran and an Ishi Tib had a love child.
Do they realize these videos would be shared across all platforms more if they actually showed something? Nothing plot centric, but at least SOMETHING.
Cool video. Would have been great if they had revealed Han in costume instead, thought.
Woody Harrelson’s Beckett?
It kind of reminds me of Colonel Gascon from the CW (although with 4 more eyes and 5ft taller). 🙂

I hope the Ring of Kafrene will be in this movie. That place was interesting. Sort of like Poliss Masa
I’d love to see the Ring of Kafrene again!
I loved all/most of the worlds in Rogue One.
I thought Warrick was already announced for Han Solo, either way Im glad hes most likely going to be in every Star Wars movie going forward. Theres just always a place for him in the universe
That alien is as uninspired as the TLJ teaser but I doubt he will make the final cut anyway. Warwick Davis needs to be in ALL the SW films too. He should be like their John Ratzenberger.
zzzzzzzzzz
Can you like, go somewhere else?
Go watch that Valerian movie if you want some crazy ass aliens.
This guy looks like he belongs in Star Wars.
I need my aliens to be… inspired.
hasnt Warwick been in every Star Wars film since VI in some capacity?
Looks like a gran species almost
