First Look at Lando Calrissian in 'Star Wars Rebels' Voiced by Billy Dee Williams




The coolest guy in any solar system is about to make his return on Disney XD's Star Wars Rebels. Billy Dell Williams confirmed last year that he'd be voicing Lando Calrissian on the animated series, but now we have the first look at Calrissian in the episode, "Idiot's Array", which debuts on January 19th.

Here's the episode's official synopsis: "The crew is forced into transporting some unusual cargo after an issue with a new acquaintance."

There's more to the story, though, and it involves Zeb losing the android Chopper to Calrissian in a game of Sabaac. To get him back the crew will have to get involved in a scheme involving Calrissian and a bunch of gangsters.  

I haven't been too big on Star Wars Rebels yet but since coming back from hiatus it has been great. Bringing in Yoda (voiced by Frank Oz!) and Calrissian can only make things better. [StarWars7News]
