If Han was killed by sacrificing himself for the greater good, he’ll commune from other side, like Yoda does.
“If Han was killed by sacrificing himself for the greater good, he’ll commune from other side, like Yoda does.”
So far - in the films - a character had to be a Force user to do that. All four characters who have been portrayed doing that - Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Won Kenobi, Yoda, Anakin Skywalker - have all been Jedi.
Han is not a Jedi. It’s never been confirmed (but is suspected by some) that Han is Force sensitive.
At this point, I think they simply added his name to the film to avoid spoilers for the current film.
