During the Star Wars prequel trilogy’s production, Han Solo almost made it into Revenge of the Sith long before he became a Rebellion hero.
During the production of Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, George Lucas considered a Han Solo cameo that was ultimately cut from the movie. Due to their nature as prequels, Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace, Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones, and Revenge of the Sith all include many tie-ins to the original Star Wars trilogy.
One element that Lucas considered connecting to the original trilogy was Han Solo himself. Since Disney's acquisition of Lucasfilm, Han Solo's origins have gone in a different direction with projects like Solo: A Star Wars Story. That being said, Lucas initially intended for Han to make an appearance in Revenge of the Sith, a decision the creator of Star Wars ultimately decided against.
As evident by this draft, a young Han would have been shown as living among the Wookiees on Kashyyyk. During Revenge of the Sith, Yoda is sent to Kashyyyk to aid the Wookiees in a Separatist attack. Initially, Han would have been stated to have lived among the Wookiees from a young age and grew up alongside Chewbacca. In this plan, Han would then have aided Yoda somehow in the battle against the Separatist army.
Lucas clearly felt that he was trying too hard to tie the events of the prequels into the original trilogy. With the Wookiee attack playing such a minimal role in the movie, including a big legacy character like Han Solo likely would have detracted from the story at hand. As such, Lucas made a good decision opting against Han Solo's inclusion in Revenge of the Sith.
