Phil Lord & Christopher Miller Will Receive Executive Producer Credit on 'Solo: A Star Wars Story'

Ousted Star Wars directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller are set to receive executive producer credit on the upcoming Solo: A Star Wars Story.

Last year, the duo was fired from the film midway through its production but will take the executive producer credit for the work they accomplished during early production.

“We were really proud of the many contributions we made to that film. In light of the creative differences, we elected to take an executive producer credit,” the pair said during a recent festival.

The partners were eventually replaced by Ron Howard, who reportedly re-shot a large amount of the film, leaving the question of who would be credited as director.

Solo: A Star Wars Story is set to hit theaters on May 25th.
