ST Harrison Ford (Han Solo) in TFA

New article with pics here
Apparently he's due back to the set by the end of the month, but they could just be speculating.
Seems he's not recovered fully yet (not really a surprise) he's still bringing crutches with him.
Kinda weird after seeing him go down that super fast slide.
Still sporting the longer hair though
Do the tabloids have secret agents camping at all the airports I wonder?

 

Maybe he really IS a scruffy-looking nerf herder in the next episode...

 

While I would typically agree its cliche - I would really suggest that Han and Chewie are too linked to the Falcon. They really are interwined. I would rather see new ships than the Falcon being passed down to the new gen. Its great seeing it again in Ep7 but I am hoping that if Han and Chewie go - Falcon goes too.

 

At this point, so many people are convinced that Han is going to die, that it would actually be a bigger surprise for him to survive Episode VII. Like, maybe they'll psych us out a few times--have scenes where we really think "Uh, oh this is it…" and then somehow Han makes it through. That might be cooler. Turn everyone's assumptions on their ear.

 

Or he becomes South Park's Kenny and dies in every single movie.

He smashed up his ankle on the set of the seventh installment in the Star Wars franchise, halting filming in June.
But Harrison Ford appeared to have recovered well from his injury as he strolled around Los Angeles hunting for coffee on Monday.
The 72-year-old looked casual but smart in a white shirt with the sleeves rolled up, baggy jeans held up by a black leather belt, and worn sneakers.

Walking well: Harrison Ford showed no sign of the ankle injury that halted filming on Star Wars: Episode VII when he went out for coffee in Los Angeles on Monday

The actor, who plays smuggler-turned-hero Han Solo in the hit film franchise that kicked off in 1977, sported grey designer stubble with his grey hair long and unkempt.

Dressing for comfort: The 72-year-old star looked extremely casual in a white shirt, baggy jeans, a black belt and well-worn sneakers

Harrison is due to resume work on Star Wars: Episode VII by the end of the month, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The star was injured when the hydraulic door of his iconic spaceship the Millennium Falcon fell on him during filming at the Pinewood Studios set 20 miles west of central London.
The action man may not have his own spaceship yet, but he flew his own private jet into Santa Monica airport on Saturday with Calista on board.

Getting back to work: Filming is due to resume on the latest Star Wars movie, directed and co-written by J.J. Abrams, this month

Taking no chances, he had his crutches with him as he walked across the tarmac and slipped behind the wheel of a waiting car.
But he wasn't using the aids and popped them into the boot of the car.
The much anticipated Star Wars: Episode VII, directed and co-written by J.J. Abrams, is due for release on December 18, 2015, in the U.S. and U.K.

"Designer stubble"? So that's what I should call it when I skip shaving? Geez.

 

Will Harrison be growing a 70's porn stache?

 

DAAAYYYYUUUUMMM. He looks better and better all the time.

 

He looks great! Can't wait for him to head back to London.

 

I was wondering about that. It would be a pleasant surprise that Han lives on through the trilogy. But I seriously doubt it, though.

 

It's only nerds on here, literally obsessed with decades old quotes, that are expecting him to die

 

Aside from being mostly gray, Harrison is sporting a very Han-esque hairstyle in those pics.

 

I wonder if he's going to keep that hair colour or going to dye it down a little bit.

 

His hair color is age-appropriate. Though, I do hope that he sports a more clean-cut look.

 

Yea, I liked his look in the Ender's Game

 

No, no. I like the stubble--Roughed up is good. He hasn't looked this good in a long time.

 

I hope he grows a long Santa Clause beard and goes ho ho ho.

 

A little makeup and he'll look fresh as a smuggler. Will they color the hair a tad??

 

I like the hair color. But I think he needs a little trim in its length -- not a whole lot but a little shaping.

 

That's because it's designer stubble.

 

I would be shocked if Han dies in this movie. Some sort of official retirement is more likely as the "older" heroes are phased out of the ST.

 

Luke would seem to be a death candidate as well, like Ben and Yoda were in the OT, and Qui-Gon in the PT. Older Jedi seem to have a tendency of being knocked off, and then re-appearing as sparkly midicloridian ghosts... To have both Han and Luke die in the ST would be a tear-jerker for sure, but it's always possible.
