The first trailer and images for Solo: A Star Wars Story have proved one inarguable fact: Donald Glover is going to steal the show as Lando Calrissian. The swindler, gambler, entrepreneur, and wearer of snazzy capes—originally portrayed by Billy Dee Williams—is the kind of character that owns every scene he's in. From the moment he said, “Hello, what have we here?” in The Empire Strikes Back, he made an impression. If you were to look up the word "suave" in an in-universe Star Wars dictionary, you'd find a picture of Lando. To celebrate the man and legend, we scoured the web to find the best Lando Calrissian GIFs for your enjoyment.
Look, it's a classic. Bonus: you can use this for so many situations.
Any time you need to wish someone well. He's handsome, even when he's pouting. Fingers crossed for this kind of joyous expression in Solo.
Raise your hand if you want to be Han in this situation.
Or Leia in this one.
He has such focus.
This. Head. Shake.
I know this is the newest addition to the Lando collection, but it's already one of my favorites.
Everything you've heard about him is true.
So. Much. Charm.
I'll buckle up, anytime, Lando.
And just because this two-fingered wave in Solo is a nice nod:
