In a function from Rolling Stone on the making of “Andor,” Diego Luna recalled the preliminary deal made with Lucasfilm to return to the position for a five-season sequence. Luna attributed his return to a realization of “how a lot [he] missed this job and missed this character.” Cassian Andor had been one of many extra attention-grabbing facets of the ensemble of “Rogue One,” as a morally ambiguous spy absolutely devoted to the reason for the Revolt. “Andor” exemplifies the themes and motivations of the character, delving into the psyche of Cassian and different like-minded characters, making the sequence a pure continuation that retains the movie’s gritty aesthetic.

Nonetheless, the fervour for the world of the sequence and bringing it to life would show to be a large enterprise. The truth is, midway by way of manufacturing on the primary season of the present, Diego Luna (who can also be credited as an govt producer on the present) and Tony Gilroy had agreed that the variety of seasons wanted to be lowered. Gilroy would element how, from a sensible standpoint, a few years of creating “Andor” was not believable:

“It was similar to, ‘We will not presumably do that.’ It is a huge, huge enterprise, and Diego would not be capable of play a youthful man over the following 15 years. We would not be capable of bodily do it. And we have been like, ‘Oh, my God, what are we gonna do?’ So at first, it was desperation, after which a really fortunate, elegant resolution offered itself.”
