Star Wars Theory Series is hosted by PureFandom.com co-founder Liz Prugh and her brother Patrick Pochop (talking about Star Wars is one of the only ways she can get him to hang out with her). They frequently have their other two brothers, dad, and Liz’s husband and self-proclaimed Star Wars experts as guest hosts. They’re dedicated to putting a fun and comedic spin on each episode. New episodes are posted on Fridays, where they break down a new theory and news about the film franchise. This week we discuss the big Star Wars news: The Han Solo film has a new director! Ron Howard steps in as the previous duo parts ways with Disney, and we discuss the perks of the Hollywood legend taking over. We also break down the incredible trailer for Star Wars Battlefront II on PlayStation 4, what we know about Episode VIII's casino planet Canto Bight, as well as some Boba Fett news that hints at the famous character's appearance in a possible film.
