Al Pacino declined the role of Han Solo in "Star Wars" due to script confusion, now regretting the decision.

Al Pacino has revealed that he turned down the role of Han Solo in the original "Star Wars" film because he couldn't understand the script. Offered what he called "a fortune," Pacino sought advice from his mentor, who also found the script confusing. He now regrets the decision, saying he can't play something if he doesn't "speak the language." The role eventually went to Harrison Ford, launching his career as a global star.
