RUMOUR: Lando in Episode VII?

From the “take this with an extreme grain of salt” department, Moviehole is claiming inside Lucasfilm knowledge that has seen a dramatis personae of Michael Arndt’s script and they claim that Lando will feature a role in the new trilogy.

There’s no details, of course, and TMZ cornered Billy Dee Williams on the street somewhere and he, of course, said he’d be interested (though based on his twitter feed, he’s more focused on working on beating his pirated app addiction).

From the Moviehole report:

Our former SF-based friend knows not the extent of any of those characters’ involvement in the new films, so no idea how much ‘Lando Calrissian’ has to do, but very cool that the big guy is indeed in the treatment.
I suppose its not really earth-shattering news that Lando will appear – he did after all help old friend Han Solo take down the Empire in prequel “Return of the Jedi”, so assumingly they’re still mates and colleagues. And he was there celebrating in the Ewok village at the end of the film.

So… File that in the “anything’s possible” drawer.
