Han, played by Harrison Ford, and Leia are captured by Darth Vader in an attempt to lure Luke into a trap.

Summary. Billy Dee Williams justifies Lando's betrayal of Han Solo as a necessary bargaining tactic to save Han and his friends. The actor faced backlash from fans who accused him of betraying Han Solo, but he points out that nobody died as a result of his actions.
As a test, the process was tried on Han Solo, who survived the freezing process through the use of a special device and was eventually freed from his trap.

Was Han Solo asleep in Carbonite?
Once Solo was confirmed to be in perfect hibernation, the carbonite block was turned over to Boba Fett for transport to Jabba's Palace, where Jabba would display it as a trophy in his main audience chamber.
On the order of the Sith Lord Darth Vader, Han Solo was frozen in carbonite on Cloud City. The freezing process resulted in hibernation sickness, causing temporary blindness. Princess Leia Organa and several other residents of Cloud City under went carbon-freezing by the Imperial Garrison under Captain Tanch.
But this is actually a very sad reason because it actually had the opposite effect, and he deeply regretted his decision to kill his father and it haunted him for the rest of the trilogy. Also, Han was telling him that Snoke was using him, but one of the reasons he killed him was to impress Snoke.
In general, people feel that one single evil act can undo even a lifetime of good, but the opposite is not the case. While the Force embraced Anakin and Luke forgave him... Han and Leia never did!
Lando Calrissian may have come late to the fight against the Empire, but his role in destroying the second Death Star cemented his reputation as a hero.
Vader's lust for power was on full display in The Empire Strikes Back, when he successfully captured Han Solo - and changed the terms of his deal with Lando Calrissian at speed, freezing Han in carbonite as a gift to Jabba the Hutt.
When imprisoned in carbonite, does the victim inside still age? No when someone is actually frozen and carbonate, they do not age. During the times of the Old Republic, corporations used to use Carbonite freezing to transport their employees before hyperspace lanes have been established.
In James Kahn's original novelization of the movie (from 1983, based on the shooting script), the scene concludes as such: “Foul beast that he was, Jabba poked his fat, dripping tongue out to the princess, and slopped a beastly kiss squarely on her mouth.”
Al Pacino Turned Down Playing Han Solo in 'Star Wars' Because He Couldn't 'Understand' the Script. "They offered me so much money," the Oscar winner recalled. "I gave Harrison Ford a career."
The Sith apprentice Darth Maul struck Qui-Gon down during the battle for Naboo, but the mortally wounded Jedi lived long enough to ask his Padawan, Obi-Wan Kenobi, to promise to train Anakin.
Yes. In the book 'Tatooine Ghost', Leia learns of Anakin's life prior to his evolution into the Darth Vader personae. This revelation leads her to forgive him. She even named her third child in memory of her father.
The added risk Darth Vader takes in allowing children to live in a situation where he could have killed them proves that he regrets killing Younglings and will avoid harming any more children for the rest of his days, though intense intimidation is a dark strategy to avoid repeating his Youngling massacre.
In the Star Wars sequel trilogy, Kylo Ren -- also known as Ben Solo -- believed he needed to kill his parents in order to remain on the dark side. While he had mixed feelings about Han Solo and Leia Organa, his repeated hesitation and conflict demonstrated he still cared for them.
The son of Han Solo and Leia Organa, Ben Solo was seduced by the dark side of the Force and renamed himself Kylo Ren: leader of the Knights of Ren, champion of the First Order, and apprentice to Supreme Leader Snoke. Driven to destroy the past, Kylo killed his father and his master, supplanting Snoke as Supreme Leader.
Kylo Ren (real name Ben Solo) is a fictional character in the Star Wars franchise. He first appeared as the main antagonist of Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015), in which he is portrayed by Adam Driver.
Lando allows Vader to freeze Han in carbonite and give him to bounty hunter Boba Fett (Jeremy Bulloch); when Vader takes Leia and Chewbacca prisoner, however, Lando's conscience gets the better of him, and in the ensuing evacuation of Cloud City he helps them escape in the Falcon.
He is the primary antagonist of the original film trilogy and, as Anakin Skywalker, is the protagonist of the prequel trilogy. Born a slave, he later becomes a powerful Jedi. He is lured to the dark side of the Force by Chancellor Palpatine, and becomes the Sith Lord Darth Vader.
