Every Halloween [1], we are treated to an influx of Luke, Leia, and stormtrooper costumes. While we have no qualms with that, 2018 introduced a new Star Wars film — and new inspiration for our Star Wars-themed costumes. Solo: A Star Wars Story gave us the backstory we always wanted [2] for our favorite half-witted, scruffy-looking nerf herder. But it also gave us action-packed scenes with fan favorites Lando Calrissian [3] (played by Donald Glover) and Chewbacca and new strong female leads with Val and Qi'ra (played by Thandie Newton and Emilia Clarke, respectively).
This year, we suggest you leave the lightsaber at home and go for one of the new Star Wars options from the latest movie. The best part is you don't have to jet off to a galaxy far, far away to get ahold of your favorite costume.
Han Solo
When it comes to Halloween [5] costumes, there's no one cooler than Han Solo. While you can't exactly purchase a life-size Millennium Falcon, you can still dress up as your favorite pilot scoundrel (Wookiee not included).

Lando Calrissian
Is there anyone on this planet who doesn't love Lando Calrissian? Donald Glover's portrayal was one of the greats, but we've been big fans of Calrissian since The Empire Strikes Back. He's suave, confident, and one amazing card player.

Chewbacca
We all know Chewbacca is the true hero of Solo: A Star Wars Story. Dressing up as Chewie is an amazing option if you live in colder climates because that outfit has tons of built-in insulation. We do suggest, however, that you don't yell "Trick or Treat" in Shyriiwook if you want to get candy.

Tobias Beckett
Woody Harrelson manages to bring the cool-guy vibes to Crimson Dawn as the professional thief Tobias Beckett. There's no heist he can't pull off, but the jury's out on his bobbing for apples skills.
