If Disney keeps sneaking formerly canon stuff from the expanded universe into current canon, it'll be passing closer to a black hole than any other ships making the run. A.C. Crispin describes it in her Solo trilogy. It's also the same run during which he dumps Jabba's the cargo for which Jabba places the price on his head.
Black hole is sexy and it makes physics sense that you'd need more power and maneuverability to slingshot closely round a black hole, let's go with that, Disney!
I hope they make that one a spectacular adventure without losing much of the cinematic quality of R1
