I was invited by Disney to attend the #HanSoloEvent. Although all of my expenses are paid, all opinions are my own.
A few days ago, I received an email that I could barely type the words, “yes” to respond to. This email was inviting me to Los Angeles for the SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY premiere!! This is the FIRST time bloggers have been invited to a Star Wars Red Carpet! I’m excited to share what details I know about this trip so far.
I’m sure you want to know more details!! Here are the details that I know so far! However, more details will come in the next few days, so be sure to follow along on social media — Twitter, Facebook and Instagram — as I’ll share all of the details there.
SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY RED CARPET PREMIERE
Disney has invited 25 bloggers to Los Angeles to attend the SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY premiere! We will walk the red carpet, the premiere party and also interview talent from the film. While I’m not sure who we will be interviewing yet, I hope that we get the chance to chat with Donald Glover and I would LOVE to chat with Paul Bettany again!! I can’t wait to see how awesome the red carpet is!!
EDITED TO ADD — We just received the list of those that we are interviewing at the press junket and I am FLOORED:
Emilia Clarke (“Qi’ra”)
Alden Ehrenreich (“Han Solo”)
Phoebe Waller-Bridge (“L3-37”)
Joonas Suotamo (“Chewbacca”)
Woody Harrelson (“Tobias Beckett”)
Paul Bettany (“Dryden Vos”)

About SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY
Board the Millennium Falcon and journey to a galaxy far, far away in SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY, an all-new adventure with the most beloved scoundrel in the galaxy.

PETER PAN Celebrates 65 Years
PETER PAN is a classic that I grew up on and it is hard to believe that it has been 65 years. While I am in Los Angeles, I’ll get to celebrate the anniversary of PETER PAN as well as the in-home release of the Walt Disney Signature Collection Edition of the film by exploring the place it was made!
I am SO excited to take a tour of Walt Disney’s office and visit the Animation Research Library where I will get to see original drawings from the film!! I am super excited to share this insider information with you.
A WRINKLE IN TIME IN-HOME RELEASE
Have you see A WRINKLE IN TIME yet? This awesome movie is available on Digital 5/29 and Blu-ray 6/5.
While in Los Angeles, I will get to see special behind the scenes bonus features and celebrate the in-home release of A WRINKLE IN TIME. Then, I will get to participate in a Q&A with Deric McCabe (“Charles Wallace Murry”).
General Hospital Celebrates 55 Years
Are you a General Hospital fan?! If so, can you believe that General Hospital is celebrating its 55th anniversary? While in LA, I will get a peek behind the scenes of ABC’s iconic and Emmy Award-winning daytime drama, “General Hospital,” in this its 55th anniversary year!
Did you know that “General Hospital” boasts quite the star-studded cast list from throughout its 55 years, including “Star Wars” legend Mark Hamill who appeared on the show in the ’70s.
Follow Along on Social Media
The details for this trip are still being finalized, but I have flights and my outfits (for the most part) all picked out and ready to go. I’ll be sharing on social media while I am in LA for this awesome experience. Be sure to follow along using the following hashtags:

Star Wars is one of my daughters best friends favorite. The girl lives for it. I remember when the first one came out and being little and going to see it in the theater. I think that was the best one.
