Spencer Wilding, the actor who played Darth Vader in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, has joined the cast of the untitled Han Solo Star Wars film. It was announced when his appearance at the Fandom Fest Convention was cancelled. The convention will take place on July 28-30 and Kentucky but the actor won't appear at the event.
