Yes, you read that right. They are making a prequel movie of Han Solo's life before he joined up with Luke and Obiwan.

Disney announced Tuesday that Christopher Miller and Phil Lord, the duo behind "The Lego Movie," will direct a feature about Han Solo's life before "Star Wars," slated to hit theaters in 2018.
The as-yet untitled movie will be written by Lawrence Kasdan and his son, Jon Kasdan. That screenwriting duo will probably satisfy the legions of devout "Star Wars" fans -- the elder Kasdan co-wrote "The Empire Strikes Back" and "Return of the Jedi," in addition to J.J. Abrams' upcoming "Star Wars: The Force Awakens," due in December.
