By the end of his life, Han Solo came to believe in things. The Force. The Rebellion. Maybe even himself.

But that was a long road. The new standalone film Solo: A Star Wars Story journeys back to his younger days when faith was harder to come by — partly because everyone he knew really was a liar or thief.
