New Star Wars: Andor trailer shows the early days of the Rebel Alliance
Cassian Andor and the Rebellion’s origins are the stars of the new trailer for new Disney Plus Star Wars series Andor. As the name implies, the show starsRogue One: A Star Wars Story’s Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) as he and his compatriots take on the Galactic Empire in covert operations for the burgeoning Rebel Alliance. Andor will have two seasons, each with 12 episodes. The first season will premiere on Disney Plus on Sept. 21, with a three-episode premiere.
Andor was previously scheduled to debut at the end of August, but Lucasfilm and Disney have apparently delayed the series.
Andor is set sometime between the fall of the Republic and Rogue One, and it covers a huge amount of time, starting with the early days of the Rebellion against the Galactic Empire, while also showing the earlier parts of Cassian’s life.
