Lucasfilm has revealed the storyline and an official release date for the film, after production suffered numerous delays and re-shoots under its new director.

“Board the Millennium Falcon and journey to a galaxy far, far away in Solo: A Star Wars Story,” the plot release reads.

“An all-new adventure with the most beloved scoundrel in the galaxy.

“Through a series of daring escapades deep within a dark and dangerous criminal underworld, Han Solo meets his mighty future co-pilot Chewbacca and encounters the notorious gambler Lando Calrissian, in a journey that will set the course of one of the Star Wars saga’s most unlikely heroes.”

The movie suffered a few setbacks after directing duo Chris Miller and Phil Lord were fired by Lucasfilm last year, and replaced with acclaimed filmmaker Ron Howard.

Lucasfilm chief Kathleen Kennedy said “creative differences” had led to the decision to part ways with the pair.

Howard has since been posting set images and updates on his social media, feeding fans with “little secrets” and messages from the cast.

Solo: A Star wars Story will star Alden Ehrenreich in the titular role and Donald Glover as his co-star Calrissian.

Game Of Thrones actress Emilia Clarke and Woody Harrelson will also feature in the movie.

Solo is released in UK cinemas on 25 May.
