Disney Accused Of Ripping Off Star Wars Han Solo Posters

Disney is again in the hot seat regarding Star Wars.

This time it’s not about Star Wars: The Last Jedi or Episode IX, but about poster art for the Han Solo movie.

A French artist is claiming that Disney stole his ideas for poster art for the four new Han Solo character posters.

Hachim Bahous posted on Facebook a side-by-side comparison of his art from 2015 next to the new Han Solo posters, where the posters do look pretty similar.

Hachim Bahous posted on Facebook accusing Disney of forgery (translated via Facebook):

Left the official posters of the next Star Wars (Disney), right the compiles for which I made the creation in 2015 for Sony Music France / Legacy Recordings France following the brief of the project leader Romain ‘Rpiz’ Pizon.
I am flattered that the quality of my work is recognized, but it is still pure and simple forgery, I have not been asked for my permission, I wish to be credited and paid for this work I have done for Sony!
A thought for everyone who worked hard on this very beautiful project: Dj Reverend P (Patrice Larrar), Richard Lecocq, Aurélien Orel, David Hachour, Yazid Manou and Yazid Manou So Romain ‘Rpiz’ Pizon.
