In September 2014, Walt Disney Pictures threatened a lawsuit against producer Sander van Dijck. They thought his stage name San Holo was too similar to Han Solo, a character in the Star Wars movies. Heroic Recordings label stated: "We are shocked by the instituted proceedings. That is very unfortunate for Sander. It should be clear that he has chosen his name for love of Star Wars. To interpret it in completely the opposite way is crazy. We find his latest release fantastic and hope that this will not stop him in his success as an artist."
