Now, it appears that the <em>Star Wars<\/em> universe project is not moving forward as a series, but instead, a film. <em>Variety<\/em> has received a confirmation from Lucasfilm that the upcoming <em>Lando<\/em> project is indeed a movie. Glover first debuted as the titular young Lando Calrissian in the 2017 <em>Star Wars<\/em> film <em>Solo<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>In a recent episode of the <em>Pablo Torre Finds Out<\/em> podcast, Stephen Glover dropped the news of the <em>Lando<\/em> film. He tells the host after he asks just how much Stephen can reveal about his upcoming projects given the strikes, &#8220;It&#8217;s not even a show&#8230;the idea right now is to do a movie. Right now, because of the strike, it&#8217;s kind of like telephone, all of the information.&#8221; Unfortunately, this is all the information Stephen could provide at the moment. <\/p>\n<p>The original news regarding the <em>Lando<\/em> series on Disney+ was first revealed in December 2020 when Simien exited the project and the Glover brothers replaced him. The original Lando character was previously played by Billy Dee Williams in <em>The Empire Strikes Back<\/em> and <em>Return of the Jedi<\/em>. Donald also previously revealed in a <em>GQ<\/em> video interview that he was in talks with Lucasfilm on another Lando-centered project, &#8220;We&#8217;re talking about it. That&#8217;s as much as I can say without [Lucasfilm president] Kathleen Kennedy hunting me down.&#8221; He also added, &#8220;I would love to play Lando again. It&#8217;s a fun time, being him. It just has to be the right way to do it. Time is precious.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Watch Stephen&#8217;s podcast interview below.<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Dum0Fo2VJgM?si=bCnld-O43zQjPyBY&amp;controls=0\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer;
