Andor Season 1: All you need to know about Star Wars series

Andor is an American television series created by Tony Gilroy for the streaming service Disney+. While still a part of the universe, Andor will be something different. Here we provide a list of things you should remember before watching Andor, lest you have some expectations in mind.

What is Andor?

It is a prequel to Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, in which Diego played Cassian Andor. Spoiler alert, Cassian dies in Rogue One, and thus Andor has to be a prequel. Speaking of it, Tony Gilroy, the executive producer, said Cassian sacrificed himself for the galaxy.
They will be focusing on the reason behind his choice.

Cassian’s life coverage

The first season will show a year of Cassian’s life, five years before the scenes of Rogue One. The viewers will be surprised and forced to wonder how the Cassian they see in Andor chose to sacrifice himself.

With five years left for the Battle of Yavin, the Empire will expand, as the ultimate weapon is about to be complete.

Will Cassian be the focus?

Though he has significant screen time in the first three episodes, the viewers will also witness and become familiar with other characters. Some of them are:

Mon Mothma has an integral part in being a link between the mainline Skywalker saga and animated Star Wars Rebels. She’s a dignified senator, but now the viewers will get a more intimate look at her life.
Saw Gerrera, who died in Rogue One, will return as an active Rebel.
Syril Karn, a security officer, will make people wonder whether he believes in the cause or not.

Lack of The Volume

StageCraft technology, also called The Volume, is not used for Andor, as made the show in London, and Volume was unavailable. Therefore, they had fully realized they set to work.

K-2SO

Gilroy teased that they are eager to tell the story of robot K-2SO and his connection with Cassian, but fans will have to wait for that due to the focus of Andor on Cassian’s life’s one year.
