Yahoo Lifestyle ‘Andor’ Season 2 Trailer: Diego Luna Is Ready For War In Lucasfilm’s ‘Star Wars’ Prequel Series
“We’re in a war. You wanna fight? Or you wanna win?” Those words from Diego Luna’s Cassian Andor in the just-released teaser trailer for Season 2 of Andor on Disney+.
The Star Wars prequel series leads up to the events of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, which portrayed a heroic band of rebels who steal the plans to the Empire’s weapon of mass destruction: The Death Star, setting the stage for the events of the original 1977 film.

Andor sets the clock back five years from the events of Rogue One to tell the story of the film’s hero, Cassian Andor, and his transformation from disinterested, cynical nobody into a rebel hero on his way to an epic destiny.
Season 2 will see the characters and their relationships intensify as the horizon of war draws near and Cassian becomes a key player in the Rebel Alliance, according to the logline. “Everyone will be tested and, as the stakes rise, the betrayals, sacrifices and conflicting agendas will become profound”.
“One of the great thrills of making Andor is the scale of the story and the number of characters we’re able to meet — ordinary people, Imperial overlords, passionate revolutionaries,” said creator and executive producer Tony Gilroy. “They are real people making epic decisions, all of them staring down questions with terrifying consequences. Cassian’s journey is the soul and spine of our story, but it’s the choir that makes the show. I’m so excited for audiences to see where we go in Season 2.”
Andor Season 2 premieres April 22 on Disney+, unfolding over 12 episodes broken down into four chapters of three episodes each, with subsequent chapters debuting each week.
In addition to Luna, Season 2 stars Stellan Skarsgård, Genevieve O’Reilly, Denise Gough, Kyle Soller, Adria Arjona, Faye Marsay, Varada Sethu, Elizabeth Dulau, Alan Tudyk, with Ben Mendelsohn and Forest Whitaker.
Gilroy executive produces along with Kathleen Kennedy, Sanne Wohlenberg, Diego Luna, Luke Hull and John Gilroy. Gilroy wrote the first three episodes, with Beau Willimon writing episodes 4-6, Dan Gilroy penning episodes 7-9 and Tom Bissell episodes 10-12. Ariel Kleiman, JansMetz and Alonso Ruizpalacios direct.
