The series Andor, which follows Cassian Andor from Rogue One, aims to connect to the original film while balancing character growth and narrative complexity. Originally planned for five seasons, creator Tony Gilroy shortened it to two to accommodate the aging of actor Diego Luna and the time investment required. Season 2 explores the transformation of the self-serving smuggler into a committed rebel spy, maintaining the slow pacing and thematic focus that characterized the first season. This dedication to storytelling sets Andor apart from typical Star Wars offerings, avoiding fan service and instead prioritizing deeper character exploration.
"Andor stands almost in defiance to the franchise at large, offering a unique storytelling approach that prioritizes character development and thematic depth over fan service."
"The series was originally conceived as a five-season affair, but was truncated to two seasons due to the time commitment and the aging of the actor Diego Luna."
