A Making-of Book for Solo: A Star Wars Story

  • JediNews: Industrial Light & Magic’s Rob Bredow will be releasing a making-of book for Solo: A Star Wars Story (an unofficial image of the front of the book was shown). The hardcover title is currently listed on Amazon as being available for pre-order ($50.00) with a scheduled release date of April 16, 2019.
  • Product Description:

Industrial Light & Magic Presents: Making Solo: A Star Wars Story is an eyewitness account of the film’s production from visual effects supervisor and coproducer Rob Bredow. The book gives readers an intimate glimpse into the journey that Solo took from pre-production, production, and post-production, fully documenting how this film came to the big screen.

Making Solo gives a chronological overview of how this multiple-Academy-Award-winning visual effects company created new worlds, aliens, droids, and vehicles for a galaxy far, far away, including insights into how the train heist on Vandor, L3-37, the Kessel Run, and the reimagined Millennium Falcon were brought to life. A must-have for Star Wars fans, this authorized, all-access book will be an indispensable work for all movie fans and devotees of popular culture.

Tatooine was to be part of another Star Wars spin-off

  • CinemaBlend:  Sadly, we don’t fully know what’s going on behind closed doors at Lucasfilm — but according to production designer Neil Lamont, one of the studio’s upcoming-but-stopped projects included a return to the legendary fictional planet Tatooine.
  • Neil Lamont: We were just starting our work on another Star Wars spin-off and yeah. We were actually just making our mark on Tatooine — which would have been interesting and some other new galaxies. So hopefully, if that comes back, we’ll get the chance to be able to do that further.
