Before 2018, the idea of a failed franchise starter in the world of STAR WARS might have seemed somewhat ridiculous. But little did the world know the trials and tribulations that would face SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY, the prequel film many fans already considered to be ill-advised in the first place. Between the much publicized change of directors mid-production (leading to major costly reshoots) and being released in the aftermath of one of the franchise's most divisive films ever, SOLO certainly faced an uphill battle upon its release...a battle the box-office returns would suggest it substantially lost. So what IS the film's ultimate legacy within the STAR WARS franchise? And why exactly is this movie responsible for perhaps our most contentious episode yet?
