This is all spoiler-free and nothing but speculation and opinions from the IGN panel. So, it's safe to watch. As for Han, I absolutely believe 100% that they will kill him off. It was the FIRST thing I thought of when news first broke that Harrison Ford was coming back. I immediately thought of Ford's original idea/hope for his character being killed off in Return of the Jedi. With George Lucas now "out of the picture", killing Han off comes closer and closer to happening. Do I want them to kill off Han? I don't know. If it did the series and the character justice and kick-started the story into a whole other gear, I would be for it. But if they are just killing him off for the sake of killing him off, then absolutely not. But I'm pretty sure that Ford had it written into his contract that 'Han Solo must die' for him to agree to terms to do the movie. It's just a question of when it happens. First, second or third movie. My 2 cents.
