Which Billy Dee Williams character did Grand Admiral Thrawn face off again?
Lando Calrissian Lando Calrissian is a fictional character in the "Star Wars" franchise. He is portrayed by Billy Dee Williams in "The Empire Strikes Back" and "Return of the Jedi", and will be played by Donald Glover in the upcoming Han Solo standalone film. He also appears frequently in the "Star Wars" expanded universe of novels, comic books and video games, including a series of novels in which he is the protagonist.
Pig Bodine Seaman "Pig" Bodine is a fictional character appearing in many novels written by Thomas Pynchon. Bodine appears in "V." (1963), and recurs in "Gravity's Rainbow" (1973). Characters named Bodine also appear in "Mason & Dixon" (1997) and "Against the Day" (2006). He also occurs in the short-story "Low-lands" (1960, 1984). A character called "Fender-Belly Bodine," presumably an ancestor of "Pig," appears as a seaman in "Mason & Dixon". First developed in "V." as sidekick and comic foil to protagonist Benny Profane, Bodine reappears (set a decade or more earlier) in "Gravity's Rainbow". Another seafaring Bodine, referred to only as "O.I.C." (Officer in Command), briefly makes a cameo in "Against the Day", again in an appearance with no obvious purpose besides as an intertextual in-joke.
