Gosh, I never did talk here about the Star Wars cinematic universe series Andor beyond posting the trailers back in 2022. Long story short: we watched it, loved it, and have seen it more than once. Good quality all round; in fact, it’s my absolute favorite in the Star Wars tv-verse. The only question was how long will it take to make more…!
Finally, finally, there are trailers and a release date for Andor season 2. Here’s the first:

The trailer music is obviously picked for the lyrics, but it’s an odd choice in terms of mood. But there’s dancing, joyous dancing by the look of it, and Cassian cleans up nice. Clearly a lot of rebellious things also happen. Looks, props, and costumes are good, too, from what there is to see. Some new, atypical environments like the grain field grabbed my interest. It’s good to see so many returning faces among the cast.
And the second trailer:

The city in a valley with concentric, star-shaped walls is fascinating; I’d like to see more of that. It has the feel of a medieval castle city, except HUGE. Mon Mothma’s growing terror is chilling to watch; Genevieve O’Reilly is one of my favorites in the series, and she continues to do an amazing job.
A pretty tantalizing behind-the-scenes video has also been released:

Ok, wow. I knew from elsewhere that season 2 will cover multiple years, but somehow I’d missed that the events here, over four years, take us into Rogue One. Sounds too fast, almost, but we’ll see how skillfully they’ll create the overall arc.
Season 2 of Andor is set to stream on April 22, 2025, with a three-parter of a premiere. This time it seems the episodes are grouped and released in threes, with the final bunch released on May 13, 2025. We’ll definitely have to spring for another few months’ worth of subscription.
Hey, look! We found a thing on the internet! We thought it was cool, and wanted to share it with you.
