At the D23 event, fans were treated to an exclusive look at the upcoming Andor Season 2, which promises to bring back cherished characters from the Star Wars universe, including Tie Fighters, Stormtroopers, and various rebels. Scheduled for release on Disney Plus in 2025, this season is expected to deliver an engaging storyline and character development. Diego Luna, who plays the titular character, took to the stage to share his heartfelt experiences working on the series and what it means to him.
Diego expressed his excitement about the new season, mentioning that it will delve deeper into Cassian's journey. He stated, “This second part of the story will follow Cassian over a four-year period as he grows into the rebel hero we know in Rogue One. In this season, the stakes are greater, enemies are more organized, and the clock is ticking. The Empire's threat grows, and Andor has a high purpose of achieving freedom and a better tomorrow.”
