Billy Dee Williams

Billy Dee Williams portrayed Lando Calrissian in 'The Empire Strikes Back' and 'Return of the Jedi', an old friend of Han's who he won his spaceship the Millennium Falcon from.

He reprised the role nearly 40 years later in ‘The Rise of Skywalker’ in 2019, which marked one of the longest intervals between on-screen portrayals of a character by the same actor in American film history.

He has also voiced Lando in video games, animated series, and the National Public Radio adaptation of ‘The Empire Strikes Back'.
