Ron Howard is giving us our first glimpse at his brother, Clint Howard’s role in Solo: A Star Wars Story.
The director took to twitter to give us our first insights into who the other Howard would be playing, in the film. The image was taken during the “final sound mix.”

While the photo doesn’t reveal much, some fans discovered that when viewed alongside the trailer for Solo, we can actually get an idea of his role.
Superfan James Baney shared this image on twitter, which definitely appears to be the same character. This is from the scene where Lando tells the droid to “let go of the mean man’s face.”

More fans of the Howards replied to the director’s tweet to express their approval at the “proof.”

This is seriously the most excited I have been by any photos from Solo thus far. So great to see Clint be a part of this!
