10. Lando TV Show

Lando Calrissian
Lucasfilm

Status: Rumoured

Lando is a great supporting character whether played by Billy Dee Williams or Donald Glover, but any series would almost certainly focus on the younger version of the character (despite being great, it's hard to imagine 81-year-old Williams committing to leading a TV series). And if Glover returns, then this becomes a more exciting proposition.

We don't really know where Lando's story goes between Solo and The Empire Strikes Back. He ends up running Cloud City, but when we left him he was still just a smuggler: how does that rise happen, and what does he get up to along the way? There's enough there for a mini-series, just, when you back it up with the charm and talent of Glover. There'd be no point doing this without him though.
