Iconic "Star Wars" character Lando Calrissian is pansexual, according to "Solo" co-writer Jonathan Kasdan. Though LGBTQ+ representation in a major studio movie like "Solo" is welcome news, many are still left feeling as if this revelation doesn't truly count for proper inclusion.
"I would say yes," Kasdan told Huffington Post when asked if the character is pansexual. "There's a fluidity to Donald and Billy Dee's [portrayal of Lando's] sexuality. I mean, I would have loved to have gotten a more explicitly LGBT character into this movie. I think it's time, certainly, for that, and I love the fluidity ? sort of the spectrum of sexuality that Donald appeals to and that droids are a part of."
Reporters, movie critics critics, and "Star Wars" fans alike expressed frustration over the report after the news broke Thursday afternoon. For many it seems like Disney and Lucasfilm try to "earn points" for LGBTQ+ inclusion without truly having representation in its films.
