Ford returns

During the course of the movie, Kylo Ren experiences doubts in the Dark Side after Rey spares his life in their final duel. Ren sees a vision of his father Han Solo which helps him back into the Light. Harrison Ford’s cameo was pivotal to the film’s narrative but the filmmakers reveal that it took some work to convince Ford for his return. Given Ford’s past relations with the character of Han Solo, the actor had his wish granted of the character being killed in Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

Han Solo, a mere figment

While fans might assume, Han Solo’s return is an appearance of the Force ghost, writer Chris Terrio confirmed that the character is a mere figment of Kylo Ren’s imagination. He later went on to clarify that Ren is still haunted by the fact that he killed his own father. JJ Abrams has said that the crew had a meeting with Ford and the actor was incredibly thoughtful before taking a step.
