Former Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy says Solo: A Star Wars Story is the only film released during her 14-year tenure that she has a "bit of regret" about.
"I don’t really have any regrets. Well, maybe a bit of regret about Solo: A Star Wars Story," Kennedy told Deadline. "I brought Larry Kasdan in on, and we were so excited about that idea. And then when you’re into something and you realize fundamentally, conceptually, you cannot replace Han Solo, at least right now."
"As wonderful as Alden Ehrenreich was, and he really was good, and is a wonderful actor, we put him in an impossible situation," Kennedy explained, possibly referring to the generally negative reaction from fans about Ehrenreich's portrayal of Han. "And once you’re in it and once you’re committed, you’ve got to carry on. I think I have a bit of regret about that, but not about the moviemaking and filmmaking. I don’t have regrets about that. I just think that conceptually, we did it too soon."
