Solo: A Star Wars Story 2018 Spoiler Thread
http://www.starwars.com/news/donald-...and-alone-film
Donald Glover is officially a young Lando Calrissian! Lucasfilm announced today that Donald Glover, an acclaimed actor, award-winning writer, and Grammy-nominated artist, will be playing the part of Lando Calrissian in the still-untitled Han Solo Star Wars film, helmed by directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller. Glover will join Alden Ehrenreich — previously cast as Han Solo — in bringing two iconic Star Wars characters back to the big screen, but at a time in their lives previously unexplored. This new film depicts Lando in his formative years as a scoundrel on the rise in the galaxy’s underworld — years before the events involving Han, Leia, and Darth Vader in The Empire Strikes Back and his rise to Rebel hero in Return of the Jedi. “We’re so lucky to have an artist as talented as Donald join us,” said Lord and Miller. “These are big shoes to fill, and an even bigger cape, and this one fits him perfectly, which will save us money on alterations. Also, we’d like to publicly apologize to Donald for ruining Comic-Con for him forever.” Glover is best known for creating and starring in the critically acclaimed FX series Atlanta (which had the highest premiere numbers for any basic cable comedy show since 2013), as well as for starring in four seasons of the show Community, and for his Grammy-nominated album Because the Internet, performed under the name Childish Gambino. In addition, Glover appeared in the Academy Award-nominated The Martian, and will be seen in the upcoming Spider-Man: Homecoming. The untitled Han Solo movie is set for release in 2018.

Lord & Miller to take Executive Producer Credits, no Director Credits “We were really proud of the many contributions we made to that film,” Miller told the audience. “In light of the creative differences, we elected to take an executive producer credit.” |

Is it just me or does dude playing Han sound like he doesn't know how to act? His delivery is...weird. |

Yeah I pretty much didn't hate anything except Han sounding like he didn't know how to deliver lines. If they put his best acting in the trailer then all the rumors could be true that dude had issues. I hope he pulls it out because it would suck to have a good movie ruined because of a casting faux pas...

I think the movie looks decent, but I’m definitely not sold on him being Solo. He’s too short, doesn’t project the cool confidence like Ford and his line delivery is off.

On the plus side. Woody Harrelson and Glover look like they are going to be superb.

Won't lie, it kinda made me cringe when he said "I got a really good feeling about this." That was... odd.
