Part 7/11:
Following Lord and Miller's exit, Ron Howard took over as director with only weeks left in principal photography. He undertook extensive reshoots, ultimately helming about 70% of the final product. The production troubles resulted in a staggering budget it was estimated to be between $275 million and $325 million—not accounting for marketing and distribution costs.
Despite all odds, Solo: A Star Wars Story retained its original release date of May 25th, 2018.
