howard took over directing duties on "", a film featuring "star wars" character han solo in his younger years. the film was released on may 23, 2018. howard officially replaced directors phil lord and christopher miller on june 22, 2017; they were let go from their position two days earlier, reportedly due to their refusal to compromise with lucasfilm over the direction of the film; reportedly the directors encouraged significant improvisations by the actors, which was believed by some at lucasfilm to be "shifting the story off-course". at the time, the film was nearly completed, with three and a half weeks left to film and another five weeks of reshoots scheduled. howard posted on twitter, "i'm beyond grateful to add my voice to the "star wars" universe after being a fan since 5/25/77. i hope to honor the great work already done & help deliver on the promise of a han solo film."
