After an immensely popular first season, Andor is back for more episodes. At Star Wars Celebration panel this year, showrunner (and Rogue One screenwriter) Tony Gilroy revealed a tentative timeline for Season 2.

This 12-episode season will span four years, moving closer towards Rogue One and A New Hope. All cast members should return, including Diego Luna as Cassian Andor and Stellan Skarsgard as Luthen Rael.

Andor has set an ambitious standard with its debut season of Rogue One prequel series Andor. In its second run-through, Andor will build upon Cassian Andor’s mission of obtaining Death Star plans while exploring formation and growth of Rebel Alliance as well as providing new insight into world of espionage and resistance.

Production has been hindered by the Writer’s Guild of America strike; however, we expect an upcoming season to still air next year; though its exact release date remains unannounced.

Andor’s season 2 could play more closely into the main Star Wars storyline, featuring iconic rebel base Yavin IV as a backdrop. Furthermore, we may witness Andor take on more leadership duties as the Rebel Alliance begins its rise to power.

Season 2 of andor will bring back several familiar characters from season 1. Diego Luna returns as Cassian Andor while Stellan Skarsgard reprises his role as Rebel Alliance dealer Luthen Rael. Genevieve O’Reilly reprises Mon Mothma role while Denise Gough reprises her Imperial officer Dedra Meero role, Kyle Soller returns as Pre-Mor Authority inspector Syril Karn, Faye Marsay is Vel Sartha role and Joplin Sibtain takes up droid factory worker Jasmine Kasso role – among many more characters and storylines that will introduce themselves within this second season of Andor.
