Though it’s been said many times, many ways … this movie should be called Lando and be about Lando. Look at howDonald Gloverabsolutely steals the show in this newSoloclip below, completely upstagingAlden Ehrenreich’s Han with this silky smooth introduction. “Everything you’ve heard about me is true,” he says. We’ve heard it in the trailers, but it never gets old. Charisma, folks!
If you want to see more Lando before the movie official opens, you can check out Glover’s greatSNL skitthat shows Lando leading a conference for black humans in space … of which there are four. Glover has been absolutely killing it lately, not only in his exceptional FX seriesAtlanta, but in the Childish Gambino video for “This Is America.” He’s doing some of the most interesting work that’s happening across a variety of mediums right now, which is why I’m excited to see more of what he’s specifically bringing to this iconic role.
Solo: A Star Wars Storyopens May 25th and also starsWoody Harrelson, Emilia Clarke, Thandie Newton, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Joonas Suotamo, andPaul Bettany.
