Director Ron Howard just shared the first glimpse of Donald Glover AKA Childish Gambino as Lando Calrissian in the upcoming Han Solo movie.
Unfortunately, it’s a tiny shot taken from Howard’s director’s monitor, but zoom in, and you’ll see the rapper/actor rocking a very Lando-esque outfit. (No word on whether or not this is actually his costume or just Glover’s smooth style.)

Glover is reprising the role made famous by singer/actor/writer Billy Dee Williams in Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back in 1980.
The forthcoming Han Solo spinoff has yet to be named, and whether or not the above picture is of actual film footage or just a test run, we’re psyched to see Childish Gambino behind the lens!
