Alden Ehrenreich Emerges As Front-Runner For Han Solo Film
After screens tests that narrowed down the field of possible actors portraying Han Solo for the stand-alone movie in the Star Wars universe, Alden Ehrenreich has emerged as the front-runner for the coveted role. The casting of this character has been shrouded in secrecy — to the point of it being referred to as project Red Cup (get it? Solo cups). After screen tests, it was narrowed down to only a handful of actors that included Taron Egerton and Jack Reynor. However, sources with knowledge of the casting process, said that Ehrenreich is now leading the pack after after an impressive performance.
The newcomer is also the lead in Warren Beatty’s yet untitled “Howard Hughes project” which will receive a fall release from Fox this year. The 26 year-old actor also gave a stand-out performance this year in Hail, Caesar!
The Han Solo film, which Disney is slating for release on May 25th, 2018, will be directed The Lego Movie team of by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller. The picture will focus on Solo’s days before he linked up with the rebel alliance. Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy is producing. Lawrence Kasdan is exec producing with Jason McGatlin. Kasdan — who wrote Star Wars pics The Empire Strikes Back, Return Of The Jedi and The Force Awakens — scripted the new pic with his son Jon Kasdan.
Disney did not return an email seeking comment. CAA, who reps Ehrenreich, would not comment either. Like we said, this casting is being guarded like it’s a matter of national security.
Joey (my housemate) was wondering how to define "The sound from star wars, and a bunch of rap songs". To start our research we dabbled in some word assoc. and a quick google. The result? The Deep Note [Odd name].

For the rest of us,
The THX logo theme consists of 30 voices over seven measures, encompassing three octaves
Who knew there were 30 sounds happening at once. Kanye & Jon Brion worked that magic on Gone, the orchestral finale of Late Registration?
Oh.. and then ole' James Moorer whips up a quick 20,000 lines of code.
The score consists of a C program of about 20,000 lines of code. The output of this program is not the sound itself, but is the sequence of parameters that drives the oscillators on the Audio Signal Processor (ASP). That 20,000 lines of code produce about 250,000 lines of statements of the form "set frequency of oscillator X to Y Hertz".
So.. next time you talk through those previews, stop, and listen. The Doctor is preaching some serious gospel to a 30 piece computer choir.
