Diego Luna, Tony Gilroy on Why 'Andor' Was a 'Risk' for 'Star Wars'

  • Andor is a Star Wars series streaming on Disney+ that spans two seasons and tells the story of Cassian Andor’s role in the rebellion before Rogue One.
  • The series intentionally avoids typical Star Wars elements like Jedi, lightsabers, and chosen ones to focus on ordinary people whose sacrifices enable the rebellion.
  • Production faced long schedules and COVID delays, leading to a reduction from an initial plan of five seasons to two, costing Disney at least $645 million.
  • Andor earned eight Emmy nominations, including Outstanding Drama Series and Outstanding Writing for the episode "One Way Out," with praise highlighting its ambitious tone and political espionage focus.
  • The series concludes Cassian’s story while emphasizing hope and community, leaving implications for future Star Wars projects amid ongoing industry strikes.
