Donald Glover, aka Lando Calrissian in Solo: A Star Wars Story, hosted (and was the musical guest, as Childish Gambino, on) NBC's Saturday Night Live this past weekend. With Solo hitting theaters this month, of course, Glover reprised his role as Lando for a sketch which humorously points out the lack of black characters in Star Wars. Glover is joined in the sketch by SNL regulars Kenan Thompson (once again playing Saw Gerrera, which he first did last year when Rogue One star Felicity Jones hosted), Leslie Jones, and Chris Redd. You can see the sketch for yourself below,
