A new 'Star Wars' prequel film focusing on the Han Solo character was announced earlier this year to be helmed by both Phil Lord and Chris Miller.

Not much has been revealed on the project, but a recent interview with Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy will now give fans a clue on what they can expect.

The Han Solo film is set to be an anthology film that focuses on the character as a youth. Kennedy speaks on how much of the character's backstory will be revealed and what will still be kept a mystery to honor the 'Star Wars' lore.

"Those are exactly the questions we're asking," she tells EW. "There's got to be a reason for [the stand-alone film] to be. And obviously the thing that Star Wars has always done so well is it doesn't spend a lot of time [explaining] the stories that have come before. We don't want to do that either. We don't want to spend time going back and answering a lot of questions that, quite frankly, I don't think people want answered."

In commenting about how the studio plans on handling the story, she states that they are carefully pulling events that will explicably define the character.

"I think the key here is that we are identifying an event or events in Han Solo's life that gives you some idea of who he is and why he is the character we have all known to love," Kennedy explains. "You can imagine, given who we've chosen to come in and direct, it should be very entertaining and funny. Han Solo is the character inside Star Wars that everybody knows has a wit and sense of humor. So that's what this should be."

There are currently no actors announced to be attached to the film.

The movie is set to premiere in May 25, 2018.
