In fact, there are instances where actors themselves request for their characters to be killed off. This may occur because they want to leave the film or show to pursue a new role or because they simply don't like to settle in one place for too long. The reasons behind these requests are varied and surprising. For example, were you aware that Harrison Ford had wanted to see the death of Han Solo for many years?
