Donald Glover Signs Production Deal With FX; ‘Atlanta’ Not Back Until 2018
The suck: Atlanta is not back until 2018. The good: that means I can actually watch it. The intriguing: Glover has signed a production deal with FX.
Donald Glover cast as Lando in ‘Han Solo’ Spin-Off Movie
What was once rumor is now objective fact! Donald Glover is going to be playing Lando in the upcoming Han Solo movie. I’m more than down with this casting, and the entire project in general. Star Wars fanboy? Check. Miller and Lord fanboy? Check. Donald Glover fanboy? Check! Clean sweep.
Donald Glover joining ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ cast
Donald Glover for Spider-Man! Oh, he’s already cast? Donald Glover for (a role in) Spider-Man!
Donald Glover cast as (the voice of) Ultimate Spider-Man
This is what we call one of them mitigated victories. Prior to the Emma Stone/Marc Webb/Andrew Garfield-powered Spider-Man reboot, Donald Glover lobbied (or didn’t really lobby depending on your interpretation) for the role of Peter Parker. People like me thought it would be dope. Other people short-circuited because gosh dang it that Glover folk’s skin pigment dun match Parker’s!
Glover didn’t get to play Parker, obviously. And boo! But now he’s sort of gotten the role of Spider-Man.
‘Community’ Returns March 15. Praise Be! Holla! Et Cetera.
Thanks to our own beloved commenter Johnny Hotsauce for bringing this to my attention. Community is going to be returning to the NBC hood March 15. So soon. So glorious.
Video: Donald Glover Drops ‘Save Community’ PSA. Do It For The Bees.
Donald Glover has dropped a Save Community PSA, and I suggest you spread it to your friends. Write your Congressman. I just recently dived he-clit deep into Community, and I realize that probably makes me one of the reasons it isn’t on the air right now. So Good Lord, let’s get over this hurdle, and I promise I’ll treat it well. C’mon baby. Forgive me.
