Disney’s 2022 D23 Expo gave fans all kinds of exciting announcements for upcoming projects. They also delivered a slew of brand-new teasers and trailers, and during that excitement, a new official trailer for the Star Wars series Andor was also released. The new series will follow Cassian Andor, Diego Luna’s character from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, and Diego Luna also reprises his role for this new show.
Now, as you can see in the below trailer, it looks like it’ll be quite a series for fans of the Star Wars franchise. The show has previously been described as something of a spy-thriller series with Cassian at the center. And, at a time when the Empire is at its peak strength, it should certainly be an intense time for our main characters. This new trailer gives just a few ideas for what to expect on that front.
Here’s the brand-new trailer for the upcoming series Andor:
The new series specifically takes place about five years before the events of Rogue One. The series has already been greenlit for a second season which will soon be entering production. And, furthermore, the second season will take place across the four years leading up to the Rogue One storyline where Cassian Andor assists in stealing the Death Star plans. Luckily, we won’t have much longer to wait to see how it all pans out. The series premieres near the end of this month.
Showrunner Tony Gilroy created the series. Kathleen Kennedy, Sanne Wohlenberg, Diego Luna, and Michelle Rejwan are the executive producers.
While Diego Luna returns to portray the titular character Cassian Andor, the cast also includes Genevieve O’Reilly, Stellan Skarsgård, Adria Arjona, Denise Gough and Kyle Soller.
The upcoming series Andor will be available for Star Wars fans to stream via Disney Plus later this month on September 21. The first three episodes of the series will be available during the premiere.
