Jonathan Kasdan wants to bring back Emilia Clarke as Qi'ra in Star Wars.

Solo: A Star Wars Story was released back in 2018 and was written by Return of the Jedi scribe Lawrence Kasdan along with his son, Jonathan Kasdan. Currently, the younger Kasdan is promoting his new Disney+ series, Willow, which is a follow-up to the 1988 fantasy film of the same name. During a chat with The Hollywood Reporter, Kasdan was asked about Solo and he talked about Qi'ra, the role played by Emilia Clarke.

"Before I got involved and before anyone was involved, my dad was really passionate about creating a different kind of femme fatale in the Star Wars universe, someone who was sincerely morally ambiguous. Qi'ra had grown up very hard, she'd had a life that forced her to become a survivor, and she was going to have to make tough choices that Han [Alden Ehrenreich] couldn't quite make.

He continued,"So what I thought Emilia brought to it wonderfully is that she's not evil or duplicitous. She's a survivor and she's maneuvering through all these different powerful entities to get to the end of the game. As the years have gone by and there has been more Star Wars, my enthusiasm for doing more Solo has waned only because there's so much great Star Wars out there right now.

"I love it. Bring it. That's what we want to hear. I had so much fun on Solo. And well, we have a number of people who worked on that show here today." Bredow said."Jon Kasdan, Ron Howard. All of us love that world, love that team. I think it's happened before, right? The fans have brought things back, so I think it really is up to the fans what we do next."The first two episodes of Willow and Solo: A Star Wars Story are streaming on Disney+.
