More than two and a half years ago, Disney+made the possible mistake of going broadly public with its intentions to deliver a Lando TV series, with Donald Glover believed to be reprising the role he brought to prequelized life in Solo: A Star Wars Story. It’s been a long and quiet road from then to now, with EP and story writer Justin Simien recently drawing attention to the lack of forward progress in that section of the galaxy. But despite all the frustration and disappointment that Simien’s update may have caused, I’m probably more hopeful now than any point in the past two years that Lando could actually come together.
