Donald Glover's "Star Wars" Series Still A Possibility, Rapper "Holds All The Cards" Lucasfilm Head Says
Over this past weekend, Star Wars fans from all over the world flocked to Anaheim, California, where they attended a four-day convention full of updates on their favourite film franchise and its countless spinoff series’. During an interview with CinemaBlend, Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy was pressed specifically about a project with Donald Glover that was teased a few years back.
If you’re not familiar, the rapper/actor portrayed a younger version of Lando Calrissian (originally played by Billy Dee Williams) in 2018’s Solo: A Star Wars Story, and not long after his beloved take on the character made its debut, it was reported that an original series called Lando was in development from Dear White People writer-director Justin Simien.
