There has been evidence of this new remastered original trilogy slowly building online over recent months. This is due to the restoration company posting short clips to a quiet unknown YouTube account.

Check out this video on an explanation on what has been happening and a comparison between the new remaster and the current 4K discs.

TLDW: The new remaster looks way better than the current discs.

Then check out this 17 minute compilation of remastered original trilogy clips that have appeared online so far.

We can have sympathy for Han's situation once we understand the details and the universe he lives in (hell, Cassian is worse, or maybe we just don't see everything Han's done for a cause not as great as the rebellion), but it's necessary to paint Han first as a ruthless asshole whose character changes as he's exposed to things. It's funny how Han shooting first gave more depth to him, and Lucas making him more defensive ruined it - not by much, but he shouldn't start as a good guy. He's NOT a good guy.
