    Cad Bane's voice in TCW is so so great. I don't want that voice changing.

    I read somewhere Thrawn was cast for a Live-Action project. Might be for Han Solo.

    My money is on a mix of imperial no-names and underworld rivals for most of the film - but ultimately Woody Harrelson's character will take a heal turn, and fill the role of primary antagonist.

    I agree with Cad Bane supporters for sure. Love the character as a hunter. Kill-able in end.

    I really think Woody should have been playing him too.

    Establish Cad Bane as Boba Fetts mentor. Have Solo kill Cad Bane in the climax of the movie. Give Boba a reason to hunt down Han in TESB (other than just money)

    I haven't read the prior two pages of responses so apologies of I repeat what others may have said. I could see the plot revolve around a heist of an Imperial Moff (maybe even canonize Moff Panaka an add another PT connection) and that isolated Moff will be the central villain. I think it is unlikely that Jabba will be the villain since he was very friendly to Han in ANH, he will most likely be the contact who gives them the job, perhaps they will show Jabba showing favoritism to him and we see a single bounty hunter go against Jabba and try and stop Han but it would unlikely be one of the notable Bounty Hunters.

    My guess is that the main antagonist is going to be a "good guy", because I believe Han is going to play villain most of his movie. I have a feeling it's going to be a movie about redemption, Han's redemption.

    This is going to be at least 5 years before the events of ANH. Lando appeared in SW Rebels season 1 without the Falcon. So, the movie must be pre-Rebels. That must be old news for most folks here.

    In ANH, Han didn't start as a "good guy". He was already a complex character, someone in the grey area, with bad connections (Jabba et al) and he was there "for the money". And at the end, he fully redeems himself saving Luke.

    So, many years earlier, there is no reason to believe he has to be the "good guy". My bet is he starts as a villain and ends as a grey area hero, as his relationships with gangsters like Jabba are still going to remain.

    To answer the OP's question, I don't believe the main antagonist are going to be folks like Bobba Fett or Greedo, etc. If anything, these are going to his peers, as they all work for Jabba. His main antagonist could be Lando. Lando can play "good guy" from very the beginning. Han already said that Lando "has no love for the Empire". It's true that Han said that Lando was a "scoundrel". Although that means "dishonest or unscrupulous person", that doesn't necessarily mean that Lando was a bad guy. That was only Han's opinion (or just playing reverse psychology to ensure Leia doesn't like Lando). I believe Lando is going to be the main antagonist for most of the movie, and perhaps at the end they make some peace by saving/helping each other; good enough to stop the antagonism between them, but without necessarily becoming best friends right there.

    Most people agree that we're going to see that famous game of sabacc where Lando loses the falcon to Han. The question is: would this be a friendly game? Like a bet you make with your best bud: "hey man, let's bet our cars, only best buds do this, right?." Or would it be a game full of unfriendly rivalry for one another? Like when two enemies dare to each other in front of everybody else, knowing that whoever loses will lose more than just a ship. I think it's going to be the latter. This is why I believe that good Lando will be Han's main antagonist.
