Harrison Ford's character was killed off by his own son in his last appearance in the Star Wars franchise, but his beloved Han Solo character will be back in the next movie as a ghost!

“I don’t want to misguide. I have to be very careful with my words here," reveals the film director. “But a figurative ghost of Han had to be present throughout this entire film.”
