Entertainment Movies Screening Solo A Star Wars Story Star Wars

Yes, it’s weird that the Han Solo spinoff doesn’t have a trailer yet

As of today, we’re less than four months away from the next Star Wars movie. But you’d never know it from the marketing campaign – or, rather, the total lack thereof.

To date, we’ve seen next to nothing from Solo: no trailer, no teaser, no poster, not even an official image, unless you count that behind-the-scenes promo pic from the first week of shooting.

That’s freaking weird, any way you slice it – but whether that’s bad is another question entirely.
