‘Andor’ Season 2 premiere | Disney+
The new season of “Andor” is something I’ve personally been excited for ever since the first season of the show blew me away. It follows the story of Cassian Andor, who grows from a reclusive scrounger to one of the key figures in the burgeoning Rebellion against the Galactic Empire.
Season 2 of the show will involve a bit of time jumping, and will show the years leading up to the events of “Rogue One,” where audiences were first introduced to Andor’s character. As the fight against the Empire grows in scale, so too do its efforts to stamp out rebellion at whatever cost.
