Finally official word on a trailer. To premiere Monday morning on GMA. So may just get a trailer for a trailer during the Super Bowl.

Three months before a film is released and we’re now getting a trailer on Monday? That’s a bad sign.

I’d be very surprised if it didn’t get a Super Bowl spot

To be painfully honest, with all of the production dilemmas, it makes sense that they are going to be in there later in the game.

And to be honest, RO made me feel unsure of the film with a lot of it's marketing..

I hope Ron Howard was able to save this film.

The fact they are still reshooting gives little hope.

The fact they are still reshooting gives little hope.

The reshoots going on currently are standard for a Hollywood blockbuster. Basically the film is together and some things just don't quite fit right in transitions, so they have the actors come back to do small scene recreations to smooth it out. It's only happening this late in the game because there was a director change, which pushed back Post-production.

Up until I'm sitting in my theater waiting in line for popcorn to see the movie for the first time, will I think it's not going to be pushed back to December

There's really no room for it in December, with Mary Poppins Returns, Aquaman, Into the Spiderverse, and Bumblebee all scheduled within the weeks leading up to Christmas.

I know Star Wars is huge, but the demand really was never hear for a Han Solo movie to begin with so I don't think pushing it back to December will help anyway. Plus, they made the wrong casting choice for Han. Ansel Elgort should've been young Han.

We would've had trailers back in August riding the Baby Driver hype. So sad.

I feel like December would be a much better time than May, though. Transformers (a spinoff of a dying series), Aquaman (another DCEU film not destined for much), and Spider-Verse (a lower key family film) are much smaller targets to go up against in comparison to Infinity War (basically the guaranteed biggest blockbuster of the year), Deadpool (one of the biggest new superheroes in recent years), and Incredibles (a sequel with 14 years worth of pent up demand).

Although really, I'd move the film to late August above all else. Literally the only competition it'll have at that time is Christopher Robin.

There’s one reason they haven’t had an earlier trailer- it’s called “The Last Jedi”

No way they’d run a trailer to another Star Wars film just prior to the current Star Wars release or in its prime ticket sales period.

Yes, the director debacle is huge- the movie will likely suffer some because of it. But there wouldn’t have been a trailer regardless of if that happened or not.

I agree completely that August would've been an ideal slot for this movie. GotG and Suicide Squad proved that big blockbusters can come out of that month.

Even then only one of those two was actually good.

Glover looks great as Lando... they showed an incredibly small amount of Solo though. Hopefully we see him actually speak in the trailer coming out on GMA to appropriately judge.

Yea I'm gonna pretend I didn't see this trailer and just act like that teaser was the trailer. Visually great but this is going to be a rough watch. Solo is horribly miscast.

 

[Andysol]

This just proves how perfect Harrison Ford was for that role. I don’t think any replacement would be worthy, no matter who was cast.
