Trivia

• Phil Lord and Christopher Miller left as writers of Flashpoint (2020) to work on the Han Solo film. Unfortunately, they left halfway through production along with original editor Chris Dickens, citing irreconcilable creative differences with producer Kathleen Kennedy and co-writer Lawrence Kasdan. A studio report reveals that Lord and Miller's comedic screwball tone and freewheeling approach angered Kasdan, who wanted the film shot in the way it was written. It also angered other production department heads involved that they came and complained directly to Kennedy. The final straw came during the two-week break while production moved from the UK to the Canary Islands; Kennedy and Kasdan together with the replacement editor Pietro Scalia were shocked how the footage turned out that the decision to fire them was decided during that time.

Goofs
