I mean, she probably could play Han Solo. She has the swagger.

But Phoebe Waller-Bridge, creator, writer and star of Fleabag for BBC3, Crashing for Channel 4 and the upcoming Killing Eve – and already up there with the bookies for the next Doctor Who is being talked about for the upcoming Star Wars movie spin off featuring the young pre-Star Wars: A New Hope Han Solo.

Variety reports that she is "in talks for a key role in the upcoming "Star Wars" Han Solo spinoff starring Alden Ehrenreich. The role would be a CGI-driven performance from Waller-Bridge but would still be a significant part of the ensemble, similarly to key Star Wars characters in the past like Chewbacca, C-3P0 and most recently, Alan Tudyk's K-2SO in Rogue One."

Phoebe would definitely shoot first. Go on, let's take a little reminder…
