LUCASFILM’S HIGHLY ANTICIPATED ANDOR SEASON 2 NOW STREAMING WITH FIRST THREE EPISODES
Lucasfilm’s critically acclaimed, “certified fresh” Andor Season 2, is now streaming with the first three episodes, exclusively on Disney+.
This final season is unfolding over 12 episodes broken down into four chapters of three episodes each, with a new chapter debuting each week over the course of the series.
“Andor Season 2 Declassified: Time” also debuted yesterday on Disney+ in the series’ Extras section and YouTube. The “Declassified” specials are behind-the-scenes looks and commentary with cast and crew that follow each block of three episodes every week and give viewers an unprecedented look at the story and making of the series from a cast and production perspective. In yesterday’s episode, the cast and crew of “Andor” take us behind the scenes of the first three episodes of Season 2.
Disney+ has also made the first batch of clips from “Andor” Season 2 available. These include:
- “Turn Out the Lights”
- “You’re Coming Home to Yourself”
- “He’ll Be Here”
- “How Nice for You”
- “The Tightest of Closed Circles”
- “We Ask the Questions”
- “Ghorman Is a Gift”
- “Radio Silence”
The second season of Andor takes place as the horizon of war draws near and Cassian becomes a key player in the Rebel Alliance. Everyone will be tested and, as the stakes rise, the betrayals, sacrifices and conflicting agendas will become profound.
Rife with political intrigue and danger, the series is a prequel to “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,” which portrayed a heroic band of rebels who steal the plans to the Empire’s weapon of mass destruction—The Death Star—setting the stage for the events of the original 1977 film.
Andor sets the clock back five years from the events of “Rogue One” to tell the story of the film’s hero, Cassian Andor, and his transformation from disinterested, cynical nobody into a rebel hero on his way to an epic destiny.
Andor Season 2 stars Diego Luna, Stellan Skarsgård, Genevieve O’Reilly, Denise Gough, Kyle Soller, Adria Arjona, Alan Tudyk, Faye Marsay, Varada Sethu, Elizabeth Dulau, with Ben Mendelsohn and Forest Whitaker.
The series was created by Tony Gilroy, who also serves as an executive producer along with Kathleen Kennedy, Sanne Wohlenberg, Diego Luna, Luke Hull and John Gilroy. Tony Gilroy wrote the first three episodes, with Beau Willimon writing episodes 4-6, Dan Gilroy penning episodes 7-9 and Tom Bissell putting pen to paper for episodes 10-12.
The directors for the series are Ariel Kleiman (Eps. 1-6), Janus Metz (Eps. 7-9) and Alonso Ruizpalacios (Eps. 10-12).
