Within future Star Wars projects, it was confirmed that there would be one focused on Lando Calrissian. It's been almost two years since the announcement was made by Kathleen Kennedy, president of Lucasfilm, and we still don't have too many details about the smuggler's big return on the small screen. Recently, Donald Glover spoke about his alleged participation and is possibly the protagonist of this series that will be seen through Disney+.
In an interview with Jimmy Kimmel, the American actor talked about the new season of Atlanta, fiction that he stars for FX, and gave a clue around the rumors of Lando. When the presenter said that Glover is currently working on the production of this story, he replied as follows: “Am I doing it?” Between laughs, he didn't make it clear whether he will actually be part of the cast or was just joking.
“I have a lot of things. I like to flourish, then leave... and right now is definitely the time to start one of those [projects]. I've been working on a lot of things, even if I wanted everything to come out at the same time. I think that's what's important to me,” added the Emmy winner in reference to his upcoming acting work.
With this response from Donald Glover, it is inferred that he would be the one who gives life to the main character in television fiction and not Billy Dee Williams. The latter played Lando in George Lucas's classic trilogy and resumed his role for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, which premiered in 2019. Like the roles of Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher, the smuggler looked at an advanced age due to the time he spent between modern films and those filmed between the 70s and 80s.
Lando could be connected to Han Solo: a Star Wars story, the ending of which left a huge cliffhanger that has not been fully resolved to date. Ron Howard's film was considered a failure after its release in 2018, and Disney's intention to move forward with this plot seems to have faded over the years. Alden Ehrenreich, Donald Glover, Emilia Clarke, Woody Harrelson and Phoebe Waller-Bridge were the actors who made up the main cast.
The Star Wars series that expand the galactic saga
The film franchise made its big leap into live-action on TV with The Mandalorian, starring Pedro Pascal, and it became the beginning of something much bigger. Shortly after the second season was released, Boba Fett's Book (with Temuera Morrison) was added and soon we will see Obi-Wan Kenobi with the return of Ewan McGregor in his remembered role as Jedi teacher.
Other upcoming series that will join the Star Wars catalog in Disney+ will be Ahsoka, Andor, Lando, Star Wars: A Droid Story and The Acolyte. In addition, Mandalorian Din Djarin (Pascal) will continue his journey for a third season. There is not much information about the titles mentioned above, but it is known that they are under development with a view to being released in the following years.
