Lando Calrissian Is Pansexual, Says ‘Solo’ Screenwriter I stopped watching Star Wars after the first movie, "Star Wars", the original. I enjoyed 2001 a lot more, thought that was a better movie than Star Wars. However, since Star Wars is so huge in popularity and sequels and whatever, I've heard of Lando Calrissian. The news that Calrissian is pansexual does not surprise me. Not with today's shifting attitudes toward sexuality. Disney, when Walt Disney was still alive, was homophobic and prejudiced as hell. Today's Disney is very different. You have to change with the times, or you fall by the wayside. And Disney made a ton of money with Black Panther. However, I do not think we are going to see many scenes of Calrissian making love to an earthworm. Maybe in another 30 years, however.... -------------- -------------- Movies The Wrap Lando Calrissian Is Pansexual, Says ‘Solo’ Screenwriter “There’s a fluidity to Donald and Billy Dee’s [portrayal of Lando’s] sexuality,” says Jonathan Kasdan Umberto Gonzalez | May 17, 2018 @ 12:09 PM “Solo: A Star Wars Story” screenwriter Jonathan Kasdan has dropped an intergalactic revelation: Smuggler Lando Calrissian is pansexual. “I would say yes,” Kasdan told the Huffington Post. “There’s a fluidity to Donald and Billy Dee’s [portrayal of Lando’s] sexuality,” Kasdan added. “I mean, I would have loved to have gotten a more explicitly LGBT character into this movie. I think it’s time, certainly, for that, and I love the fluidity ― sort of the spectrum of sexuality that Donald appeals to and that droids are a part of.” In the original “Star Wars” trilogy, Lando was played by Billy Dee Williams, who gave Donald Glover the simple instructions to “just be charming.” It appears that Glover took the advice to heart because as young Lando, he plays up the character’s charm and adds a new layer to the gambling swashbuckler. “He doesn’t make any hard and fast rules. I think it’s fun,” Kasdan said. “I don’t know where it will go.” “Solo: A Star Wars Story” follows young Han Solo (Alden Ehrenreich) as he gets started on his life of crime, meets and befriends Chewbacca (Joonas Suotamo), gets hold of the Millennium Falcon and gambles with Lando Calrissian (Donald Glover). It also stars Woody Harrelson, who plays Tobias Beckett, Han’s mentor in piracy. “Solo: A Star Wars Story” opens May 25. Edited on May 17, 2018, 01:27pm | |

@Amanda, you didn't say if you enjoyed Solo. Was it an outstanding Star Wars film, just OK, or disappointing for you? Like I said, I have only seen the first Star Wars movie. But this weekend, I am thinking I might see the new Solo movie, or I might see Deadpool 2. My level of anticipation is not very high for either one. The last 2 Comic Book movies I really enjoyed were Captain America (the first one, where the Captain is battling evil Nazis) and Wonder Woman, where Wonder Woman is also battling evil Nazis. I just realized: with both Captain America and Wonder Woman on the job, the Nazis never had a chance. Maybe if Solo is sent back in time, to battle Hitler, the movie might have more meaning, for me. Because that would be a case where you fight the villain, he is defeated or dies, and the hero wins. | |

Are the Star Wars movies losing their magic? The newest Star Wars movie has a disappointing opening. ----------- ----------- Variety.com May 26, 2018 9:02AM PT Box Office: ‘Solo: A Star Wars Story’ Headed for Underwhelming Holiday Weekend Debut By Erin Nyren “Solo: A Star Wars Story” is struggling to make the kind of opening weekend impact now expected from a Star Wars film, with an estimated $114 million from 4,381 domestic sites over the four-day Memorial Day weekend. Earlier estimates had pegged the film in the $130-$150 million range. “Solo” earned about $35.6 million through Friday, including $14.1 million from Thursday grosses, the highest Thursday for a Memorial Day opener. But a $114 million opening would have “Solo” trailing the three-day debut of the last anthology film, “Rogue One,” by $41 million — to say nothing of “Star Wars: The Last Jedi’s” $220 million opening. The Disney-Lucasfilm venture is the 10th Star Wars movie and fourth from Disney in less than four years. Should the holiday estimate hold for “Solo: A Star Wars Story,” it will raise questions about franchise fatigue and Disney’s strategy of opening the tentpole a mere five months after “The Last Jedi” debuted on Dec. 16. At $114 million, “Solo” would be the fifth-biggest film to open on Memorial Day weekend. Disney’s 2007 release “Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End” currently holds that title with $139.8 million, followed by “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of Crystal Skull,” “X-Men: The Last Stand,” and “Fast and Furious 6,” with $117 million. “Solo” follows Alden Ehrenreich as a young Han Solo, who befriends his future co-pilot Chewbacca and meets the gambler Lando Calrissian (Donald Glover). Emilia Clarke, Woody Harrelson, Thandie Newton, Paul Bettany, Joonas Suotamo, and Phoebe Waller-Bridge round out the cast. Ron Howard directed from a screenplay by Jonathan and Lawrence Kasdan. Howard replaced the directing team of Phil Lord and Chris Miller, who left the project in June, citing “creative differences.” Critics have been mostly positive about the film, which holds a current 71% “fresh” score on Rotten Tomatoes. Fox’s “Deadpool 2” will likely nab the second place slot in its sophomore weekend with $54.5 million from 4,349 theaters. The addition should give the “Deadpool” sequel an 11-day total of around $220 million. Starring Ryan Reynolds, “Deadpool 2” sees the titular antihero forming the X-Force in an effort to save a young mutant from Josh Brolin’s Cable. Third place is slated to go to “Avengers: Infinity War” in its fifth frame, with $21 million from 3,768 locations. “Infinity War” has earned $1.8 billion worldwide in its first 28 days, with $605 million from domestic grosses. This weekend’s take should push “Infinity War’s” domestic total past “Star Wars: The Last Jedi’s” $620 million and “The Avengers'” $623 million to land the No. 6 slot on the all time domestic earners list. The second weekend of Paramount’s “Book Club” should land in fourth with $12 million from 2,810 theaters. The Jane Fonda, Mary Steenburgen, Candace Bergen, and Diane Keaton-starrer has earned $22 million in its first week at multiplexes. The four women star as book club participants who decide to shake up their lives after reading “Fifty Shades of Grey.” Warner Bros.’ “Life of the Party” is likely to land the fifth place title in its third frame, with about $6 million from 2,937 sites. Melissa McCarthy stars in the Mother Day’s opener, which has earned $33 million domestically in its first two weeks. She plays a recently divorced mom who goes back to school at her daughter’s college. | |

The fizz has gone out of The Force. “Solo: A Star Wars Story” is heading for a disappointing $28 million in its second weekend in North America, early estimates showed on Friday. If the forecasts hold, the anthology movie will post a 67% decline from its Friday to Sunday opening of $84.4 million. At $28 million, “Solo: A Star Wars Story” will win the weekend — but it’s a hollow victory with the third frame of “Deadpool 2” a relatively close second with $20 million (for a $251 million domestic total). The debut of Shailene Woodley’s survival drama “Adrift” is battling for third with the fifth frame of “Avengers: Infinity War” at about $10 million each. But the lack of traction for the Han Solo origin story signals that Disney erred in bringing out another “Star Wars” title a mere five months after launching “Star Wars: The Last Jedi,” which took in $71 million in its second weekend on the way to a $620 million domestic haul. The first anthology film, “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,” made $64 million in its sophomore frame in 2016, declining 59%, on its way to a $532 million domestic total. The results for “Solo: A Star Wars Story” also pale in comparison to the same weekend a year ago when “Wonder Woman” set the record for the first weekend in June, grossing $103 million in its debut. Disney’s first “Star Wars” movie, “Star Wars: The Force Awakens,” was a smash hit in late 2015 with a record-setting $936 million in domestic grosses. “Solo: A Star Wars Story” will finish the weekend with about $147 million and may not make it to $200 million by the end of its run. “Solo” follows Alden Ehrenreich as a young Han Solo, who befriends his future co-pilot and Wookiee companion Chewbacca, and meets the gambler Lando Calrissian (Donald Glover). “Solo” is the second of the “Star Wars” anthology films, which are being spun off as origin stories, following “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,” which launched domestically with $155 million in December 2016, on its way to $532 million in North America and $1 billion globally. Disney and Lucasfilm are also developing spinoffs for Boba Fett and Obi-Wan Kenobi. Disney is in pre-production J.J. Abrams’ “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” sequel “Star Wars: Episode IX.” It’s set for a Dec. 19, 2019, release date. STX is expanding “Adrift” to 3,015 sites on Friday with forecasts in the $7 million to $11 million range for its opening weekend. Woodley and Sam Claflin star as a couple that sets sail across the ocean in 1983. The two get stranded in the middle of the Pacific Ocean during a hurricane and attempt to navigate to Hawaii without communication or tools. Johnny Knoxville’s “Action Point” is tracking below estimates for a dismal opening between $2 million and $3 million at 2,032 venues. The R-rated comedy, set at a New Jersey theme park, features bizarre stunts in the vein of Knoxville’s earlier films. BH Tilt’s horror sci-fier “Upgrade” should take in as much as $4 million from 1,457 locations. “Saw” and “Insidious” helmer Leigh Whannell wrote and directed “Upgrade,” which premiered at this year’s South by Southwest. Logan Marshall-Green plays a man who gets an experimental computer chip implanted in his spinal cord after he’s left paralyzed following a mugging. | |
