At one time, there was an awful lot of negativity surrounding Solo: A Star Wars Story but the release of that first trailer helped turn the tide and we've since seen excitement grow for the spinoff. A cover story in Entertainment Weekly played a key role in that and Disney and Lucasfilm are no doubt hoping that Empire's coverage will do the same. Today, we have all the brand new stills from the magazine!

As you can see by clicking through the gallery below, there are fresh shots of everyone from Lando Calrissian, Han Solo, Chewbacca, and a number of other supporting characters set to be introduced.

There are some downright iconic looking shots here and some may even give us a pretty good hint about what to expect from Solo: A Star Wars Story (a movie which has been shrouded in an awful lot of secrecy despite all those reports about what happened behind the scenes). Once you've taken a look at these images, be sure to head down to the comments section to share your thoughts on them.

While a lot of fans are disappointed that Billy Dee Williams' Lando hasn't shown up in the new trilogy, it's fair to say that Donald Glover definitely looks the part of a younger version of the hero.

It's hard for Lucasfilm to change up Chewbacca's appearance between movies but we know the Wookie will be rocking some pretty awesome looking goggles which toy collectors will appreciate!

Here, we see Han, Tobias, and Val seeming casing out the train we know they'll attempt to rob in this movie. How that will link up to the Kessel Run remains to be seen but it's like a precursor to that.

Qi'ra will seemingly serve as a love interest of sorts to Han (at least during their young days) but what brings them together again after so many years apart is a question we'll get an answer to in May.

What a stunning shot! This could just as easily be a still from A New Hope and it's fair to say that Ron Howard has done everything within his power to make this spinoff feel as Star Wars-y as possible.

Another gorgeous still from the movie, that is indeed Lando sitting in front of him. Little does he realise that he'll one day lose his beloved ship to Han (a moment we'll probably end up seeing here).

L3-37 could emerge as a fan-favourite from Solo: A Star Wars Story, especially as she appears to be seriously snarky and is also visually distinctive. Phoebe Waller-Bridge voices the droid here.

Director Ron Howard appears to be very happy with what he's seeing here and hopefully, that's good news for us. Just don't expect to see any shots like this of Phil Lord and Christopher Miller!

Awesome? Meh.

@jj2112 - You took the word right out of my keyboard.

Super12 - 4/17/2018, 6:45 AM

@jj2112 - Josh's color commentary is getting nauseatingly annoying. "What a stunning shot!" or "gorgeous still". Really Josh? Really? Is it? This movie is underwhelming at every turn.

jj2112 - 4/17/2018, 8:10 AM

@Super12 - Yup. As someone who was in the cinema to see A New Hope when it opened and was fascinated by it, I can only concur. Luckily Infinity War is fast approaching.

@SuperCat - You never disappoint!!

SuperCat - 4/17/2018, 6:23 AM

@CyberBishop - Thanks :)

GreedoSarducci - 4/17/2018, 6:55 AM

@SuperCat - this would be the only way they could convince me to pay to see this film.

SuperCat - 4/17/2018, 8:55 AM

@GreedoSarducci - LOL. Looks good to me but I'm still trying to get over how bad "The Last Jedi" was. So I'm hesitant when it comes to anything "Star Wars" related now.

Cautiously optimistic.

Dotanuki - 4/17/2018, 5:06 AM

I think the look of the movie is fantastic. Really nice colors. Cinematography Lois top notch for a Star Wars movie

Dotanuki - 4/17/2018, 5:07 AM

There’s really nothing that interests me about this movie, but there’s also no way I’m gonna miss a film that stars Woody Harrelson, Emilia Clarke and Donald Glover.

I’d trade every Star Wars film that’ll ever get made for another Malcolm Reynolds film. He’s 100 times the character Han Solo is.

Jokersnutz - 4/17/2018, 6:42 AM

I'm thinking this may be the best Star Wars movie since The Empire Strikes Back.

Super12 - 4/17/2018, 6:46 AM

@Jokersnutz - and I thought my jokes were bad.

Leaked stills from Solo: A STAR WARS STORY has been released...

Well, the biggest heist will be on people's pocket. That is of course if you want to keep on receiving crap from Mrs. Kennedy et al at Lucas Film and you turn a blind eye to the horror that is being committed to this beloved franchise!

Timerider84 - 4/17/2018, 8:35 AM

Han wins the Falcon from Lando BEFORE they even go anywhere in the Falcon, Lando is just showing Han what the Falcon can do, plus they're going to see Qi'Ra the scene where Chewie is walking up those stairs, that's where Voss is.

Disney star wars related: the people at Lucas will abuse Yoda next because it will not be able to defend himself!

The people at Lucas: "Yoda, you are next!"

fundamentallyOT - 4/17/2018, 8:52 AM

Honesty and respect to the OT should have been the cornerstone of this new set of products but alas, reality has shown us otherwise. Only Mr. Hamill had the courage to tell the truth.

Can’t wait! Redemption for TLJ please!
