The Lando Before Time: Donald Glover Speaks About the Legacy of Playing Lando in Star Wars
Although the #StarWars anthology films are flying the Falcon at 12 parsecs into a Kessel Run of high expectations, we STILL don't have a name for the upcoming #HanSolo solo film.

Landos Who Lunch: Does A Billy Dee Williams And Donald Glover Lunch Mean A Han Solo Cameo For Original Actor?
As we fire up the Falcon to do the Kessel Run, and shooting begins on the hotly anticipated Han Solo anthology film, Alden Ehrenreich prepares to slip on his waistcoat as Han and Donald Glover is pencilling on a moustache to play Lando Calrissian.

3 Reasons Why 'Star Wars Episode III - Revenge of the Sith' is Amazingly Important to the Franchise and My Favorite
In 1988 I was first introduced to Star Wars thanks to my parents. It's a series that they had shared with me out of reluctance, but not because of the fighting, the magnificent battles, or even the ideology of the monk-like Jedi. It was rather a reluctance due to my obscene love for everything Dune and Top Gun.

Har Har Binks: 'Scary Movie' Writers Developing Star Wars Parody Film
In a galaxy that is unfortunately not so far away, the team behind Scary Movie is developing yet another parody film, and this time it is the world of George Lucas coming under fire — get ready for helmet jokes galore. Director/writer duo Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer will direct a #StarWars parody under the title Star Worlds Episode XXXIVE=MC2: The Force Awakens The Last Jedi Who Went Rogue. Is nothing sacred anymore? Unsurprisingly the film will riff off the more recent adventures of the Skywalker clan and undoubtedly be littered with Jar Jar Binks cameos.

All Fetts Are Off: This Is How Close We Were To Josh Trank's Boba Fett Star Wars Story!
Crawling out of the Great Pit of Carkoon, and rising from the stomach of the Sarlaac, it's more of those #StarWars Boba Fett solo film rumors. Another shot to the heart comes with confirmation that Josh Trank's (now departed) Star Wars Story would have centered around the galaxy's most infamous bounty hunter. With the announcement of three Star Wars anthology films in 2015, rumors were rife that the upcoming #RogueOne would be joined by a #HanSolo coming of age adventure (tick) and a Boba Fett caper (cross).

Kanye Believe It? Kanye West Wants A Role In The Star Wars Films
In addition to being as big as Jesus and running for the 2020 presidential election, it seems that the "greatest living rockstar on the planet" Kanye West wants to add another mission to his already full plate. In the strangest story since Luke and Leia's creepy bro/sister kiss, the 239-year-old rapper wants to whip out his lightsaber and join the Star Wars universe.

The Crystal Daze: Luke Skywalker's Necklace Holds A Huge Secret In 'The Last Jedi'
Time to do your best Yoda impression and mumble "hmmmm, theory do we have." While #RianJohson and #Disney are keeping a tight-seal on spoilers surrounding Star Wars: The Last Jedi, it hasn't stopped the fandom from pawing over every piece of news and every last second of the recent teaser, then picking apart the galaxy with midichlorian-sized detail.

Not So Low For Solo: How Can This 'Phantom Menace' Character Return For The 'Han Solo' Film?
It would be great to forget that the likes of Jar Jar Binks, trade negotiations, and Hayden Christensen's scowl had ever happened, but there is no denying that the #StarWars prequels films are something we will have to live with. Importantly setting up the events of Lucasfilm's original trilogy, the prequel films will also undoubtedly start to leak into #Disney's anthology films.

Did John Boyega Just Confirm A Skywalker Reunion In 'The Last Jedi'?
When fans learned that Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford would return for Star Wars: The Force Awakens, we assumed that they'd all be reunited on-screen. Sadly, it wasn't meant to be — Han Solo and Leia had scenes together, but Kylo Ren killed his father before Luke's whereabouts could be discovered. The original trinity would never appear all at once.
