To The Surprise Of No One: Lando Project Is Dead
The Lando sequence is formally lifeless. If anybody remembers: this sequence was initially introduced in 2020. Alongside different initiatives like “Rogue Squadron” (giggle), “Rangers of the New Republic” (snort) or “Droids” (huh?!?).
Deadline quotes sequence director / showrunner Justin Simien who informed them the mission just isn’t transferring ahead at Lucasfilm.
Simien mentioned this to Deadline:
“It was fairly developed. There was a Bible. There was idea artwork. There have been scripts. However it simply wasn’t meant to be.”
No specific purpose was given for the cancellation of the mission. Final yr it was nonetheless mentioned that Glover and his co-writer wish to flip the sequence right into a film as a substitute. No phrase about that right here anymore. And let’s be trustworthy: a Lando film would tank exhausting. He’s a supporting character who works within the better context of a Star Wars film, however few could be keen to observe his solo adventures. It’s definitely for the most effective we is not going to get a Lando solo mission.
And Kathleen Kennedy can add another failed/cancelled mission to her spectacular record of issues she introduced which then by no means occurred.
Now all we actually anticipate is Deadline reporting that Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy is furious that sexist and misogynist Disney dared to cancel her Rey film and the way that is an outrage.
If solely Lucasfilm had had this type of foresight they present with the Lando sequence for The Acolyte…
Depart all the standard humorous remarks within the feedback part when you really feel prefer it. Perhaps somebody can submit an up to date record of Kathleen Kennedy’s Star Wars initiatives that by no means materialized.
