The Han Solo movie finally has a title, and people are already roasting it
Ron Howard used Twitter to announce the title of the standalone Han Solo movie. The internet was amused.
Here's the director delivering the news:
For a movie that was given the code name "Red Cup" for three years through the different phases of production (a reference to the brand of Solo red cups), this title wasn't much of a stretch. Also, "Solo" has the double meaning of being Han's last name and also pointing out that he's a space smuggler who is a loner.
But now to the fun part: the internet's reaction. It's been swift, and people on social media seem very much unimpressed by the title choice. Below are some examples (we'll try to keep updating).
