The series is set to premiere between July and August on Disney+
The actor Diego Luna revealed in an interview with Vanity Fair more details of “Andor”, a new Star Wars series centered on the rebel Cassian Andor, from “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story”.
moon defined the production as “a migrant’s journey”. “The feeling of having to move is behind the story in a very deep and strong way. It shapes you as a person. It defines you in many ways and defines what you are willing to do“, he declared.
In “Rogue One”, Cassian Andor sacrificed himself on behalf of the galaxy. Now, the series that takes place years before the spin off will show how he got to this place. “The first season is all about that: how he’s really revolution-averse, cynical, lost, and kind of messed up.“, explained Tony Gilroyscreenwriter of “Andor”.
“Andor” begins with the destruction of the protagonist’s home planet and, although he tries to escape from it, he will eventually realize that he cannot do this forever. The main setting of the season will be the planet he has adopted as his home, from where he will observe the radicalization up close and the rapid expansion of the Empire.
Rebel leader Mon Mothma (Genevieve O’Reilly) is also back in the universe. According to the magazine, Mothma’s story will unfold in parallel with Cassian Andor’s, but the expectation is that they will meet. After all, he becomes at some point an essential agent for her journey.
Still according to Vanity Fair, “Andor” is expected to premiere at the end of the North American summer, that is, sometime between July and August. The first season will have 12 episodes and will air on Disney+.
