Star Wars: 9 Burning Questions About Lando's Return In Episode IX

8. Will He Reclaim The Falcon?

After bonding with him throughout Force Awakens, Rey essentially inherited the Millenium Falcon from Han Solo after his death at the hands of Kylo Ren. Which is fitting, seeing as Han wanted to hire her to fly the ship with he and Chewie before his death anyway.

But, with Lando coming back, will the Falcon's original owner attempt to reclaim her?

Solo: A Star Wars Story told the tale of not only how Lando lost the Falcon to Han, but also how much he loved it. Especially considering that he wound up having to upload his partner, L3-37's consciousness into the ship itself in order to save her. Even in the original trilogy, Lando and Han have several back and forths about whose ship she truly is and making sure she's well-kept.

So when Episode IX rolls around, will Rey still be the captain of the Falcon? Or will Chewie now be Lando's co-pilot instead?
