However it goes, I expect a great time from Simien’s debut in Star Wars canon.
That will definitely give Lando a completely different flavor than anything we’ve seen the character in before, which basically amounts to three trilogy era appearances and a larger role in the spinoff Solo, at least on the live-action front.
He also appeared in two episodes of Star Wars Rebels, and it wouldn’t be the wildest thing in the world if he also appeared in one of the other animated shows on the way.
Lando will be crafted by Justin Simien, the acclaimed director and writer of Dear White People, both the film and Netflix’s TV spinoff, and the recent dark comedy horror Bad Hair.
