So, there's a photo of Donald Glover that has been doing the rounds online for at least two years.
It appears to show Glover in one of his yearbook photos at Stephenson High School in Georgia. Glover is pictured with a smile, wearing a Star Wars shirt.

And ever since it was announced that Glover would be playing Lando Calrissian in the Han Solo Star Wars spin-off, people have been sharing it even more, convinced that it's a prophecy coming true.
Donald Glover will play Lando in the 2018 Han Solo film. Here he is in his yearbook wearing a Star Wars shirt
People are seriously happy that someone who seemed to always be a fan of the series is getting a role in the latest incarnation.
Voted most likely to play Lando Calrissian in high school… #StarWars @donaldglover
And Glover has always been a fan. "I mean, I grew up on it," he told Time Magazine in August. "My dad was a big fan. I had all the toys when I was little. I had a Darth Vader with the lightsaber he has. It was cool. It’s a dynasty. It’s like the bible. I love that franchise."
When you go from wearing a @starwars T-shirt in high school to staring in the latest film. Nice job, Donald Glover.
Moral of the story: "Follow your dreams guys anything is possible."
@donaldglover went from wearing a Star Wars shirt in high school to being in FUCKING STAR WARS follow your dreams… https://t.co/Sccx4jEVVW
