“Lando” was announced to Disney investors as an “event series” back in December 2020, with writer-director Justin Simien (“Dear White People,” “Bad Hair”) attached. In an appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” in late March of this year (see above), Glover himself seemed to confirm that he still had a “Lando” project in development at Disney+, joking that Kimmel was “telling all [his] business,” but then saying, “No, yeah. I have a lot of things. I like to blossom then go away.”

Outside the “Star Wars” franchise, Glover does remain a busy dude. The third season finale of his FX series, “Atlanta,” just aired this month, and the show’s fourth and final season is coming this fall. He also has his Prime Video series, “Mr. and Mrs. Smith,” on the way, which was originally set to reunite him with Phoebe Waller-Bridge, who played his Millennium Falcon co-pilot, L3-37, in “Solo: A Star Wars Story.” It’s now moving forward with Maya Erskine in the Mrs. Smith role instead.

There’s also Glover’s musical career as Childish Gambino, while Simien has been otherwise occupied in the Mouse House with a new live-action “Haunted Mansion” film. So it’s understandable why development on “Lando” might be slow-going. It’s always possible that “Lando” could fall through, but Kennedy also said, “There’s always a future for Solo,” and neither she nor Glover seem to have given up yet on “Lando,” either.
