Lando Calrissian with a twist:

Lol.

Dre post with a (giant) stretch.

This is not Lando by any means. At least Han knew who Lando was, and Lando was to some degree trying to play it straight. Yes, he betrayed Han and Leia, but from his own perspective he had no choice.

DJ, by contrast, is a nobody. No one knows who he is or what his deal is beyond a possible use which they might have for keeping him around. They have no choice but to bring him along because they’re otherwise backed into a corner. Whereas Han deliberately chose to visit Lando because Lando was his friend.
