Might seem crazy, but I can see the dude who plays Darius as maybe a better option

Without question I think this guy will be a very good actor. I saw some of his other works and he is like completely different people which is unique unlike most actors.

I could be way off, but since he's playing the younger version of Lando, I wonder if they'll go with the angle that he hasn't developed his swag yet to tailor it for Glover. It sounds like it could be corny, but I wouldn't be surprised if they go somewhat in that direction.

Props to him but yeah man Shaolin fantastic would've been..................fantastic. I'm sure he can pull it off though since I don't see him getting the role if he couldn't pull it off but I agree with you. He was always their first choice

:ohhh: Damn, I didn't even think about that dude. I like this casting suggestion more than Donald Glover.

I could definitely see Darius playing the role better. Stepping on set with the swag of a young Billy D.

I can see this. I picture a young lando as a fast talking playboy, Its going to be especially interesting to see him lose the Falcon to Han. :russ:

but the thing about Donald Glover is that he IS acting. He doesnt have to have the natural swag, he can just study Billy Dee Williams and make it happen.

It's like once you know his name you can't forget..... it's Lakeith Stanfield by the way.

He's really going in Short Term 12 btw, you should really see it.

Yeah he's the safe pick. You satiate the fanbase who's already in love with him and now that Atlanta is a critical darling, you get that extra exposure too. It makes sense. But Shameik Moore would've been:wow:

Shemeik is just too dark, it wouldn't make sense.
