10 Actors Who Could Play A Young Han Solo In The Upcoming Star Wars Spinoff

This week, the surprising news broke that The LEGO Movie and 21 Jump Street helmers Phil Lord and Chris Miller would be taking on a Star Wars Anthology film centering around a young Han Solo. Not much is yet known about the project - though it's been reported that it is not the same film as the rumored Boba Fett/Han Solo movie Josh Trank was supposed to direct - but the talent behind it and subject matter are enough to get any Star Wars fan excited.

Of all the actors on this list, none are more primed to take the mantle of Han Solo from Harrison Ford than Anthony Ingruber. Not only does Ingruber look like a clone of a young Ford, but he sounds and acts like him too, which caught the attention of  The Age of Adaline casting directors – who cast him in the role of a young William Jones, who was played by… yep, you guessed it, Harrison Ford.

Ingruber even inadvertently provided the internet with a casting audition for the part back in 2008. He uploaded this take on Harrison Ford’s introductory Star Wars Cantina scene to YouTube, and delivered a pretty impressive imitation of the actor, right down to the slight eyebrow motions and speech cadence.

Sure, it’s not required that the actor who lands the role to look and sound exactly like Harrison Ford (as evidenced by the inspired re-castings in J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek), but why cast someone like Chris Pratt when there are Anthony Ingrubers in the world?
