'Solo: A Star Wars Story' clip confirms Donald Glover's Lando is going to be the breakout star
Watch Next

As we all know, Donald Glover as Lando is already the best thing about Solo: A Star Wars Story. And the most recent clip released for the movie only further solidifies this truth.

It shows the first moment that Han (whose name we shall heretofore purposefully mispronounce in support of Lando) meets the most charming smuggler in all the galaxy. There's even a quick shot of Emilia Clarke as Qi'ra.

We happen upon Lando just as he's claiming some gambling rewards. "There's no liars in this game, only players," he says, to the aliens he clearly just lied to and played like a fiddle.

Oh Lando -- no matter how much of a rapscallion you are, we've gotta hate the game and not the player.

Catch Solo: A Star Wars Story in theaters on May 25.
