'SOLO': THE LANDO FACTOR!

Self-made galactic man! Lando Calrissian.

'Everything you've heard about me... is true.'

He's cleared his debts (especially to the underworld), he's not tied down to any kind of personal/business commitments, and it looks like the galaxy is for his taking, just as is its female population is for the smooth romancin' (be they human or alien, or even droid!). Yes, hot pilot of his beloved Millennium Falcon, Captain Lando Calrissian, makes his special debut in Solo: A Star Wars Story, in an excellent performance from Donald Glover that showcases all the character traits the popular high-caliber scoundrel will have by the Classic Trilogy era, as originally personified by Billy Dee Williams, most notably the relaxed and confident ego and manner. But also, vitally, the fact that prior to the events of Cloud City, Lando wasn't always so reliable and trustworthy as you think...

The card shark!

The cool coat!

The slick pilot!

Blaster man!
