Williams made his debut as the gambling scoundrel in Star Wars: Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, reprising in Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, and in countless other Star Wars shows like Star Wars Rebels and games like Star Wars: Jedi Knight II – Jedi Outcast. He even voiced the character in various Robot Chicken and Family Guy episodes dedicated solely to Star Wars as well as The LEGO Movie. Donald Glover stepped into the role earlier this year to play a younger Lando in Solo: A Star Wars Story.
In Episode IX, Williams joins returning franchise stars Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, and Adam Driver, plus newcomer (and frequent J.J. Abrams collabroator) Keri Russell.
They are reaching M. Night Shamefuldispray levels. Trying to put twists in movies to make it seem more interesting than it it actually is. At least M. Night didn't spoil it before the movie even came out. Disney is clueless. [Reply]
Legit question - is there any way this movie can "win?"
Half the reactions from people online are pissed at Rey going evil, and the other half are pissed because it's "obviously a force vision, as Disney would never spoil something like that at D23". [Reply]

I'm not pissed about it, but that's definitely true. [Reply]
My hope after watching TFA was that Rey would fall to the Darkside and Kylo would come back to the Light. I don't think they are going to do that, and if they are it will be terribly done and rushed since TLJ is smeared shit on wet pavement story wise.
Oh well, at least the Mandalorian looks very promising. [Reply]
