Young Han and Lando on joining the Star Wars universe.

Donald Gloverwho will star as young Lando Calrissian in Disney and Lucasfilm's upcoming standalone Han Solo movie, has come forward to share his excitement in being selected for the role.

The actor appeared on the The Ellen DeGeneres Show (via EW) to discuss his role in the film, saying he's "very honored" to have the opportunity to play Lando, calling it "a very big deal."

Glover also discussed his response to the news that he got the part, saying he told his dad right away. "He was like, 'Aww,'" Glover said of his father's response. According to Glover, it was his father who gave him his first childhood toy, a Lando action figure.

However, his mom's reaction was a little bit different. "My mom was in the back; she was like, 'Don’t mess it up! Don’t mess this up!' 'Cause Billy Dee — like, that’s hers," he added.

Disney and Lucasfilm's still-untitled Han Solo movie opens in theaters on May 25, 2018 and may serve as the first in a trilogy of films centered around the charismatic smuggler.
