Donald Glover could be returning to his Solo role as Lando Calrissian in a new Disney+ Star Wars series, according to a new report. Take this as a rumor for now, because it is not yet confirmed by a major outlet. That said, Kessel Run Radio reports that Glover is either in talks or locked into a deal for a new series on the Disney streaming service. It was noted that things are still coming together and the whole thing could fall through.

Details on what the series would be are not yet known. The obvious speculation would lead to the idea of a series centered on Lando, who Glover played in Solo: A Star Wars Series. While Solo was a failure at the box office, it has been a strong performer on streaming services, having first appeared on Netflix and then making its way to Disney+. Glover’s work as Lando was one of the more praised aspects of the film.

The Disney service has found success in Star Wars with The Mandalorian and has an Obi-Wan Kenobi series in development. The Mandalorian bows its second season in October.
