Our first look atSolowill drop today during theSuper Bowl. It’s been revealed that the teaser spot will air either during the first block of commercials or the second quarter of the game, with the latter seeming more logical. Lucasfilm is set to release the full trailer onGood Morning Americatomorrow morning and a Super Bowl 2018 teaser has been rumored for weeks. With 30-second ads starting at $5 million, Disney and Lucasfilm may have spent a little bit more to finally show us what we’ve all been waiting for.
A new report suggests that our first look atSolo: A Star Wars Storywill be 45 seconds long, but it isn’t clear when exactly it will air, though the second quarter seems to be the obvious choice to debut the first footage from theyoung Han Solo movie. Other than that, details are scarce. With an ad that’s 45 seconds long, we will more than likely get our first look at Alden Ehrenreich as Han Solo unless the teaser trailer focuses on other characters first before the official trailer drops tomorrow.
Fans have been waiting months to see anyofficial footagefromSolo: A Star Wars Storyafter many false reports of a trailer announcement. The only official promotional material that we have seen is the artwork for theLEGO setsfrom the movie as well as the logo and title. Other than that, Disney and Lucasfilm have done a remarkable job keepingdetails about the movieunder wraps. Some fans have speculated that we haven’t seen any footage because the movie is reportedly terrible, but that’s just the hardcoreStar Warsfan frame of mind postThe Last JediandRogue One.
It seems that theStar Warsfans who have already made up their mind that the movie sucks are the ones who are looking forward to the first footage more than anybody, which is strange, but makes complete sense when one thinks ofStar Warsfandom. No matter what,Solo: A Star Wars Storyis set up to be trashed by the all-knowing super fans, even before seeing the movie. The new teaser today mixed with the first official trailer tomorrow will go a long way in either putting fears to rest or confirming theworst of fearsfor a certain section of the fan base.
We’re getting our first look at footage fromSolo: A Star Wars Storyand this alone is reason to turn on Super Bowl 2018. Never mindSkyscraperandMission: Impossible 6, this isStar Warsthat we’re talking about. Perhaps the only trailer that will outdo theSolotrailer is theDundeecommercial that has been going viral for the last handful of weeks, but even then, this is the mightyStar Wars. Get ready for the first footage fromSolo: A Star Wars Storydropping in a few short hours.
