Lucasfilm confirms Andor season 2 is happening, with the show having 24 episodes in total. When Disney and Lucasfilm began developing plans for Star Wars TV shows on Disney+, it was quickly revealed that one of the ideas was a Rogue One: A Star Wars Story prequel. Starring Diego Luna as his character Cassian Andor, the series is set to explore the origin of the Rebel pilot.

This left some confusion about whether or not Luna would return as Cassian Andor for another season.
