    I’ve only seen this guy in the Robocop remake. He has a very distinctive voice and speaking pattern, I thought.

    Omar! This is fantastic news. One of the best characters in the Wire (next to Bubs), and just an overall great actor.

    You've gotta watch the Wire. He's a force.

    He's also fantastic in Boardwalk Empire. It would be great to have him aboard.

    Love this guy. Glad to see he's in it. Say what fans will about having a young Han Solo movie, they seem to be scoring quite high with their cast choices!

    Only have ever seen him on Boardwalk Empire (I know, I need to watch The Wire). Chalky White was probably the best character and a badass in that show so glad to see him onboard. Very good actor.

    Getting more on board with each additional casting but still cautious until I see a clip of Ehrenreich.

    "Omar coming!!!!"

    Indeed

    You're assuming Lando's daddy is black. [face_not_talking]

    I've been thinking, what if on one side you have Han and Woody and the other you have Lando and Michael K Williams?

    Each are sort of pirate/smuggler factions or gangs, MKW is the hard nose gritty tough guy boss, Woody is the sleazy get-rich-quick scoundrel leader.

    Something happens which brings the two gangs into conflict or competition leading to the younger members Han and Lando having to meet and work together somehow.

    Anyway, just an idea.

    This honestly was the news that made the Han Solo film for me. MKW is one of my all-time favorite actors and I know that whatever role he has he's absolutely going to steal the show. And if he's playing Quinlan Vos, based on that speculation, then someone will have literally looked at my dream Star Wars cast.
