It’s Lando!
Fans were always unsure about Alden Ehrenreich’s casting as Han Solo, but no one seemed to have a problem when Donald Glover was announced to be playing Lando Calrissian. Now, at last, the TV spot gives us our first look at the young version of the character – who fans are dubbing “Childish Landino.” And, wouldn’t you know it, he looks majestic.
Decked out in a big fur coat with immaculate facial hair, Glover’s take on the character looks every bit the suave yet crooked criminal he’s meant to be. We’re sure Billy Dee Williams would be pleased that his replacement looks to be drawing a lot of inspiration from his performance.
Sadly, neither the TV spot or full trailer give us any interaction between Han and Lando but hopefully, Ehrenreich and Glover are able to strike up the right kind of chemistry, just as Ford and Williams did in the original trilogy.
