Andor: Diego Luna says he can’t reveal anything about “powerful” second season

BBG News

As a seasoned gamer and Star Wars enthusiast with a rich history of binge-watching and anticipating sequels, I can’t help but feel the excitement building up for “Andor” Season 2. Much like my endless attempts to achieve the perfect high score in my favorite games, the wait for this show feels like an epic quest that never seems to end.

Diego Luna wrapped up filming all his scenes as Cassian Andor quite some time back, yet the specific release date for Season 2 of “Andor” hasn’t been announced officially. During a recent interview promoting his latest project, “La Maquina,” co-starring his close friend Gael Garcia Bernal, Luna confirmed that “Andor” is indeed on its way, though he remains tight-lipped about any details.

I can’t really tell you anything about ‘Andor,’ but it’s coming out. It’s coming out, and it’s great. The writing of Tony Gilroy is really powerful.

Initially planned for a much earlier debut, Andor is now slated to premiere around the beginning of next year. Luna will once again portray Cassian Andor, whose story takes an unexpected turn as he becomes part of the Rebellion. The upcoming second season will span four years in Cassian’s life prior to the events depicted in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, and may detail Cassian’s transformation into a crucial figure within the Rebel Alliance.

Luna finds the delay quite demanding, as she yearns for spectators to witness the diligence poured into Season 2 by her and the entire troupe.

I can’t wait for the second season to come out, but this show is teaching me to be patient, basically, like no other job.

Season 1 concludes with Cassian choosing to align with the Rebellion following Maarva Andor’s demise. In Season 2, we can expect the reappearance of key characters introduced in the first season as well as familiar faces from Rogue One, such as Alan Tudyk, Ben Mendelsohn, Forest Whitaker, Duncan Pow, and Genevieve O’Reilly. However, hints from Diego Luna suggest that there are several significant surprises still to be revealed, leaving us curious if one of these secrets might involve the return of Felicity Jones, who played Jyn Erso in Rogue One.

Luna’s transformation from a dejected youth into a self-assured Alliance Intelligence Officer is definitely worth keeping an eye on. In addition to some well-known guest appearances, Season 2 promises to transport us to crucial Rebellion locations such as Yavin 4. We eagerly anticipate the unveiling of an official trailer for Season 2 during the D23 event in Brazil, happening from November 8-10 in Sau Paulo.

Andor Season 2 premieres in 2025 on Disney+.
