"Hello, what have we here?"
He may have been the most charming man in Star Wars - Lando Calrissian, played by Billy Dee Williams.
Lando, the guy in charge of Cloud City, appears in the The Empire Strikes Back and instantly wins women over with his stunning smile and suaveness, right up until they find out he's betrayed Han Solo to Darth Vader and the bounty hunter Boba Fett.
Eventually, it becomes clear that Lando didn't really have a choice (I mean who could stand up to Darth Vader), and he has a change of heart where he decides to do the right thing to make amends, consequences to himself and his city be damned.
Lando helps Leia, Chewbacca, C-3PO and R2-D2 escape from Cloud City and even helps Leia rescue Luke after he loses his hand in the epic, "Who's your daddy?" battle with Vader.
Mr. Charming vows to help the group find and rescue Solo, and in the Return of the Jedi, they do just that.
