Hello , what have we here ?
The Hollywood Reporter allege that Billy Dee Williams will take back to the role of Lando Calrissian in J.J. Abrams ’ Star Wars : Episode IX . We ’ve gain out to Lucasfilm for comment and or verification and will update if we try back .
Lando ’s whereabouts have been one of the big questions fans have had since the offset of the subsequence trilogy . He has not been mentioned in The Force Awakens nor The Last Jedi despite ending Return of the Jedi as one of the most prominent phallus of the Rebellion . And while he was definitely around before The Force Awakens ( as explored in books such as Long ShotandAftermath ) his activities now remain a mystery .

gratefully , fans have been able to come up their Lando itching with the graphic symbol appear both on Star Wars Rebels ( withWilliams reprising the function ) and in Solo : A Star Wars Story , played in a younger incarnation by Donald Glover .
rumour of Williams ’ involvement heat up earlier this calendar month when he had to cancel an forthcoming convention appearance because of a filming difference of opinion . Since Episode IX is set to startle filming later this calendar month , that seemed like a consistent explanation . And , it seems , that was the case .
With filming on the subsequence start soon , a full cast proclamation is probably sometime in around early August . Episode IX opens on December 20 , 2019 .
