Al Pacino turned down Han Solo role after “The Godfather” made him famous: ‘I can’t make anything out of this’
In his new memoir Sonny Boy, Pacino writes that " The Godfather followed me everywhere I went and overshadowed everything I did. I was shy about it, and the world wouldn't let me be shy. I was absolutely confounded by all the commotion. After The Godfather, they would have let me play anything. They offered me the role of Han Solo in Star Wars ."
