Solo: Star Wars Story shows the Falcon before it becomes a piece of junk.

The snowy planet looks to be his homeworld of Corellia, which we see on screen for the very first time in a Star Wars film. This shot of Han Solo is shades of his look in The Empire Strikes Back and The Force Awakens. I guess he truly is cold-blooded.

Tobias Beckett, played by veteran actor Woody Harrelson, is leading an Oceans 11 style heist, it seems. His crew is diverse, to say the least — with the likes of Han Solo, Chewbacca, Lando Calrissian (Donald Glover), Qi’ra (Emilia Clarke), and other unknowns which we are itching to learn more about.

It seems they are using the Millenium Falcon as their mode of transportation, and what better way to do so than in the fastest ship in the galaxy.

"I might be the only person who knows what you really are."

Narration by Clarke is a play on words, with a bit of misdirection. It’s likely that Han Solo’s identity as an Imperial is a secret from the rest of the crew, but this could also be referring to the fact that Han Solo may not be entirely the scoundrel everyone thinks he is. She may know what lengths he went in rescuing Chewie and other noble deeds, which we will see in the film.

"What’s that?"

Speaking of nobility, that very heart and spirit that Snoke refers to in The Last Jedi when he tells Kylo Ren he has too much of his father in him. Like father, like son — hearts of pure gold, just like Solo’s pair of dice.
