Absolutely loved the movie, all except Glover as Lando. Thought he was creepy and slimey, where Billy Dee’s Lando was suave and sophisticated. Adored this film and hope it picks up speed.
I’ve only seen the trailer. Did “Mr. Gambino” play Lando as “street” in any way?
The trailer has him say “baby”.
Mr. William’s inspiration for the role of Lando was the swashbucklers he grew up watching as a kid (people like Errol Flynn), he said that a reporter once asked him what his life growing up in America as a black man brought to that role. He said “nothing, the world in Star Wars is far far away from here”.
“where Billy Dees Lando was suave and sophisticated.”
The smoothest cat EVER.
