The search is over! As reported by Hypable the role of young Lando Calrissian in a spinoff movie about Han Solo, coming out in 2018, is going to be given to Donald Glover.
Actor Donald Glover attends the world premiere for “The Martian” on day two of the Toronto International Film Festival at the Roy Thomson Hall, Friday, Sept. 11, 2015 in Toronto. NASA scientists and engineers served as technical consultants on the film. The movie portrays a realistic view of the climate and topography of Mars, based on NASA data, and some of the challenges NASA faces as we prepare for human exploration of the Red Planet in the 2030s.

Young actor will have a difficult task of capturing one of the most charming characters of the original trilogy and one with perhaps the most interesting character arc as well. Star Wars fans have been anxiously waiting for the actor chosen to be named and while there is no such things as 100% approval rate among the fans, the reactions so far have been mostly positive.
