Further thoughts on playing Lando

I know maybe at least 15 people read this blog, if it's it ANYONE at all associated with a Casting Agency or from the world of the new star wars films, I BEG you to get in contact with me. (Wesyeed@gmail.com) I swear to GOD I will pour my soul into the role of Lando Calrissian. I've dreamed of playing him since I was a teen watching the credits roll after Attack of the Clones. I dreamed in my stupid head that I'd be the one cast as young lando in the prequels. It never happened, I moved on, finished high school, tried to do the college thing, and now I'm a baggage handler at LGA. But By GOD it's actually happening, they're making a Young Han Solo movie and they NEED to find a Lando. I'M RIGHT FUCKING HERE... Do not pass me up!!!






The real question is WHAT will I do if I get the part... Lose all my weight, I'll have to get back to my original teenage weight of 155 pounds. I'm at 200 pounds right now cuz I didn't give a shit and got fat. But I can lose it all no problem if they need it. 

Take acting lessons of course. I'm an artist just like Billy Dee, so I'm not terrible at acting, but I have no professional training in it. 

What else, I like to think about star wars and the whole phenomenon of it and figure out what deserves to be referrenced in the pop culture when and if I have a chance to toss it on screen... But most of all I want to play Lando properly and not fuck it up. Lando's always been a favorite of mine, not even because I look like him. It's because of his fucking SWAG. Got to love the man's manliness, COME ON... I'm kinda as cool as Lando all things considered I"m Billy Dee's Twin so I'm A LOT like him. 

Maybe too much. We'll see. If this movie comes out and I'm not in it. It's a tragedy, I'll curse every frame of whoever they cast, I swear...
