Andor

Star Wars’next telly show , Andorseason 2 , is promise major link toRogue One : A Star Wars Story , and I could n’t be more excited . Rogue Oneis largely look at one ofStar Wars’best movies , which is particularly impressive given it is one of very fewStar Warsmovies not include in the Skywalker Saga . Star Warsmovies and TV showshave always look an rising conflict when they do n’t have-to doe with at once tothe Skywalker family tree(and sometimes even when they do ) , so this was truly no easy exploit .

Andoras aRogue Onespin - off has proven to be a continuation of that picture in the most bright way , not only by follow one of the best characters fromRogue One , Cassian Andor , but also by honour the themes ofRogue Oneregarding boots - on - the - reason efforts , insurrection , revolution , and pertinacity . Andorseason 2 , which releases on Disney+ on April 22nd , 2025 , will be no dissimilar based ontheAndorseason 2 trailer , and , if anything , Star Warshas only emphasized the show ’s connection toRogue Oneall the more forAndorseason 2 .

Andor Season 2’s Marketing Keeps Calling Back To Rogue One

So Many Details Have Leaned Into The Connection Between Andor And Rogue One

The joining betweenAndorandRogue Onehas , of line , always been clear , given Cassian has only appeared inRogue OneoutsideAndor . However , in the lead up toAndorseason 2,Star Warshas really begun emphasizing just how critical this connection is . One of the most obvious ways this has been done is through the title of the show . For season 1,Andorwas solely calledAndor , without any caption , but this coming second season is suddenly being look up to asAndor : A Star Wars Story .

This approaching second time of year is of a sudden being cite to asAndor : A Star Wars Story .

Andornow sharing a caption withRogue Onereinforces that these two stories are directly linked . This make particular sense givenAndorseason 2 ’s blank space in theStar Warstimeline , which will run right up until the beginning ofRogue One . This was a brilliant way forAndorto bridgeAndorseason 1 andRogue One , and it has me specially delirious about all theRogue Oneconnections we are ricochet to see in the newfangled season . In summation to the title , there have been several other marketing strategy overtly linkingRogue OneandAndor .

Although much subtler than a sword - newfangled subtitle , additional nods towardsRogue Onein marketing forAndorseason 2 include little hints on social culture medium and details inthe newAndorseason 2 trailer . On X , the font being used for theAndorseason 2 countdown is selfsame to that used for theRogue Onecountdown . For the poke , the prominence of the klaxons , a type of alarm seen on many starships , is extremely remindful ofRogue Oneas well .

Rogue One Was Disney’s Best Star Wars Movie; Andor Is Star Wars' Best TV Show

Rogue One Completely Changed The Game For Star Wars

Rogue Oneis considered one ofStar Wars’best motion-picture show , and it ’s certainly the bestStar Warsmovie that is n’t part of the Skywalker Saga . Rogue Onebroke completely new ground forStar Wars . When Lucasfilm declared thatStar war : The Rise of Skywalkerwould be the final stage of the Skywalker Saga , the enfranchisement ’s future seemed incredibly uncertain . However , while it ’s debatable how muchStar Warshas really stepped away from the Skywalkers , Rogue Onehas proven thatStar Warscan be successful beyond its most democratic family .

Andor , likewise , has proven to be one ofStar Wars’best idiot box show , and that ’s true for exchangeable reasons . Rather than focus on the Skywalkers , the Jedi , or even the Force , Andoris mainly about the everyday the great unwashed who struggle back against the Empire and grant their all to see freedom for the galaxy last see . This is especially excited , as viewing audience already recognise that Cassian Andor ’s story stop in heroism but also in tragedy .

Star Wars ' new lagger for Andor season 2 has given me a feel I have n’t experience in 9 years , making me even more excited - and emotional .
