This is especially true of the Lando Calrissian spin-off that was supposed to follow Solo: A Star Wars Story, which focused on the youth of the two characters. In this case, the role of Lando was played by Donald Glover, who succeeded as Billy Dee Williams, his translator in the original series, but also in the film Star Wars: The Ascension of Skywalker (Episode IX).
