Hey guys, if you've been paying attention to Star Wars Explained on Youtube or on Twitter, you would have heard that that they have officially made Tag and Bink Canon in the upcoming Solo movie! I read Tag and Bink as a kid and could never stop laughing at how ridiculously humorous it is and how it sort of filled the gaps of the movies with the duo being launched through one absurd situation to the next! I did some digging and found that the idea behind these two trouble-magnet clowns, was actually based on an award-winning play called "
Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead", a story that takes place behind the scenes of Shakespeare's Hamlet and focuses on two buffoonish minor characters who unwittingly influence major events in the plot. It's likely that this lovable pair of buffoons will only make a minor a brief appearance in the Solo movie, but still; knowing that the previously Legends-only characters are now mainstream is just AWESOME!
