HAN SOLO OVERCOMES
As noted in last week’s column, Alden
Ehrenreich, 26, has been cast as Han
Solo in a new stand-alone Star Wars
movie that is now in pre-production.
He beat out some 2,000 other actors
for the part, and much of the media
frenzy since his casting has focused on
Ehrenreich’s early career luck — a short
comedy video he made, when he was
14, was shown at a friend’s bat mitzvah.
Steven Spielberg, now 69, saw it, liked
it and helped Ehrenreich get TV parts.
He eventually introduced Ehrenreich to
his friend Francis Ford Coppola. In 2009,
Coppola gave Ehrenreich the co-starring
role in Tetro, a film noir. The movie did
badly at the box office, but Ehrenreich
got critical raves. In 2013, he co-starred
in Beautiful Creatures, a big-budget flop.
But he made a nice career recovery
in the Coen brothers’ 2016 comedy
Hail, Caesar! He fought for the role and
proved that he could be funny.
Ehrenreich has come out on top,
despite suffering a tragedy in his youth.
Ehrenreich
The Malibu Times summed it up in 1998,
in an article that is still online: “The year
[1997] began with the news of a violent
and unexplainable holiday tragedy
when Mark Ehrenreich, a Malibu-based
CPA, was stabbed to death with a
kitchen carving knife, allegedly by his
brother, a schizophrenic, whom he was
picking up at a halfway house in Long
Beach to take back to his home for a
family Hanukkah celebration. His 8-year-
old son [Alden] was sitting in the car
beside him when he was attacked.”
Ehrenreich’s mom, Sari, an interior
designer, remarried Harry Aronowitz,
an orthodontist. (Alden’s father’s
