A Solo effort or not?

The recent Star Wars films have all had their production problems but the clear winner is the trouble that has hit the spin off film focused on a young Han Solo. The film went into production under the directing duo of Chris Lord and Phil Miller who were more well known for comedies like 21 Jump Street. However just before the film was to cease production the pair were fired, the reason given was that producers were unhappy with their working methods. To replace them Oscar winning director Ron Howard was brought in. Howard rang many changes including changing a CGI character into a live action one. This has lead to speculation that Howard will get sole directing credit however a recent statement by actress Thandie Newton who 90% of her role was filmed with Lord and Miller. We will have to wait a year for the answer.
