LOS ANGELES – Donald Glover, the multi-talented artist known for his music, the show “Atlanta,” and his latest series “Mr. and Mrs. Smith,” is set to take on a new challenge in the film industry. Alongside his brother Stephen, Glover is developing a “Lando” movie for the “Star Wars” franchise. This news has been received positively, as Glover has established a reputation for delivering high-quality work.
The “Star Wars” movies released during the Disney era have often been criticized for their lack of originality and cohesive vision. However, Glover seeks to break that mold with his upcoming film. In a recent interview, he expressed his confidence in creating something exceptional. Glover believes that maintaining control over the project is crucial for a singular vision, which in turn generates more interest from viewers. He emphasized the importance of uniqueness in a time when anyone can create content easily.
Besides his personal motivations for taking on the project, Glover also mentioned that his children are fans of the “Star Wars” franchise. This personal connection further fuels his dedication to making a remarkable film.
While the prospect of Glover having creative control over a “Star Wars” film is exciting, there is always the possibility of conflict with Lucasfilm, the company responsible for the franchise. Lucasfilm has been known to part ways with artists who deviate too far from their vision. As a result, there is some apprehension about whether Glover’s film will ultimately align with his original vision.
As of now, the “Lando” movie has not been officially announced among the four forthcoming “Star Wars” films on the Lucasfilm development slate. If the film does come to fruition, fans may have to wait until 2028 or later to see it. Despite the uncertainty surrounding its production, there is optimism that if Glover’s vision is realized, it will be a great addition to the “Star Wars” universe.
