All great relationships have to start somewhere, and in the newest Solo clip we get to see the first time our favorite space smuggler met the coolest man in the galaxy far, far away, Lando Calrissian. But somehow this fateful first encounter is even more monumental than that. In fact, it might just be the single most important Star Wars scene of all time, because it finally puts to rest once and for all the correct way to say “Han.”
In the scene Alden Ehrenreich‘s Han walks in on a game of Sabacc, which he intentionally mispronounces to make himself sound like a sucker eager to lose his money. He then introduces himself to Donald Glover‘s Lando, who invites him to join the game. It’s a fun scene, obviously historically important to the Star Wars universe, not just because these two will one day help bring down the Empire, but because it definitely ends any debate over how to pronounce our favorite scruffy nerf herder’s name
See! It doesn’t sound like “hand,” it sounds like someone laughing and adding an “n” to the end.
“Han” with the same vowel sound as “barn.” Or if you prefer another sci-fi franchise, it rhymes with this name:
Just like that. Well, maybe not just like that.
The important thing is: we never have to debate this again, and we can focus on something even more important: whether or not it’s the Millennium “Fall-cuhn” or the Millennium “Fahl-kin.”
