\nMichael K. Williams was cut out of Solo: A Star Wars Story, but he\u2019s not bitter. The actor \u2014 best known for playing stick-up man Omar Little on The Wire \u2014 still wants to be in a Star Wars movie at some point.
Speaking to Variety while attending the Toronto International Film Festival, Williams admitted he still hadn\u2019t seen Solo, for which he had shot scenes that wound up not being used. He had originally played the villainous character that wound up incarnated by Paul Bettany. When Ron Howard took over from first directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller, there came massive re-shoots, which didn\u2019t work with Williams\u2019 schedule.
\u201cI have not had the chance to see Solo, but shout-out to my cast mates,\u201d Williams told Variety . \u201cEven though I didn\u2019t make the final cut, they\u2019re still my cast mates. I love you guys.\u201d
Williams then doubled down on his Star Wars love. \u201cI\u2019m quite sure I\u2019ll get around to it but I\u2019m more interested in getting another shot in being in that galaxy,\u201d he said. \u201cI would love another opportunity to be in Star Wars. \u201d
Williams was last seen in the remake Superfly. Next year he\u2019ll be seen in Edward Norton\u2019s screen adaptation of Jonathan Lethem\u2019s Motherless Brooklyn.
