YES. A+ casting. I don't even need Han's story. Just give me Lando's! https://t.co/fngZSFS9z2

I am honestly more hype for Donald Glover playing Lando than I am that the Han Solo movie is even happening in the first place

Donald Glover is Lando Calrissian. Sometimes, fan-casting gets it right.

Donald Glover cast in anything is enough to make me happy. Casting him as Lando Calrissian makes me double happy.
