Star Warsfans hoping for more of Emilia Clarke’s Qi’ra may be disappointed. Though there have been no indications of a sequel toSolo,the actress quashed any news about her returning to otherStar Warsprojects.
Solo: A Star WarsStorywasn’t the most successful of Disney’sStar Warsefforts. It introduced Alden Ehrenreich as Han Solo and was supposed to tell the origin story of the scoundrel, which began on Corellia, where he had met and dated Clarke’s Qi’ra, later revealed to be an apprentice to Maul (Ray Park, Sam Witwer).Soloended up floundering at the box office, andRon Howard saysSolo 2is not a Lucasfilm priority, so this plot thread has only ever been picked up in comic form.

Speaking withIndieWireabout whether Clarke was pursuing aStar Warsreturn, she suggested it wasn’t happening anytime soon. “I mean… no. That would be lovely, that would be very nice,” Clark said. “I’m genuinely having a wicked time on Marvel, though, they’re absolutely brilliant.” Given that she knows nothing of a potential return, that means it is incredibly unlikely for Qi’ra to show up in another live-actionStar Warsproperty likeThe Mandaloriananytime soon.
Clarke will also be fairly busy working on Marvel Studios' content.She was cast inSecret Invasion, where Clarke is rumored to play the character of Abigail Brand. It’s unknown if that obligation will stretch beyondSecret Invasion,but Marvel Studios tends to plan ahead just in case.
Clarke is on record saying she wants tostay on for the MCU afterSecret Invasion. So, she may play a recurring role across Marvel Studios' multi-media empire. Clarke will star opposite Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury inSecret Invasion,and her continued association with the Fury would make sense. Abigail Brand is a SWORD agent in the comics, and she may be Clarke’s focus for a while. If she isn’t a Skrull, that is.
Qi’ra is also not the only role fans have been requesting of Clarke. Many have wondered if Clarke wouldreturn as Daenerys in aGame of Thronesspin-off series, such as the untitled Jon Snow sequel in development. For her part, it doesn’t look like Clarke will return to that role anytime soon, either.
Solo: A Star Wars Storyis now available on Disney Plus.
