A role that sticks to the skin, who was already playing mentor to Katniss and Peeta in the franchise Hunger Games . But do not put the cart before the oxen! In an interview with Mashable , Woody Harrelson confided about his character and he confirms be a mentor to Han Solo, he says he will not necessarily be a good person . “I’m a mentor to Han, but I’m also a bit of a criminal. I do not think I would have a lot of makeup. We’ll see how the style develops. I meet these guys tomorrow, for the hair, makeup, waterfalls and everything ” , he has said.
It makes sense when you think about it. The first time we met Han Solo in Episode IV: A New Hope , it was seen as a villain. If he was trained by a criminal, it is not very surprising.
