Tension builds throughout the official season-two trailer for Andor, which returns for its conclusion on Disney Plus on April 22. 

Season two begins as war against the Empire draws near and Cassian Andor (series star and executive producer Diego Luna) becomes a key player in the Rebel Alliance. Everyone will be tested and, as the stakes rise, the betrayals, sacrifices and conflicting agendas will become profound. 

Rife with political intrigue and danger, the series is a prequel to the film, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,” which portrayed the band of rebels who stole the plans for the Empire’s weapon of mass destruction—The Death Star—setting the stage for the events of the original 1977 film. Andor sets the clock back five years from the events of Rogue One to tell the origin story of the film’s hero, Cassian, and his transformation from disinterested nobody into rebel hero.  

The final season unfolds over 12 episodes broken down into four chapters of three episodes each. The first chapter premieres April 22, with subsequent chapters debuting each week, exclusively on Disney Plus.  

More pre-season content awaits Andor fans on YouTube, including a special look at season two, a recap of season one and a conversation with series creator and executive producer Tony Gilroy. 

 Andor stars Luna, Stellan Skarsgård, Genevieve O’Reilly, Denise Gough, Kyle Soller, Adria Arjona, Alan Tudyk, Faye Marsay, Varada Sethu and Elizabeth Dulau, along with Ben Mendelsohn and Forest Whitaker. 

The series was created by Tony Gilroy, who also serves as an executive producer along with Kathleen Kennedy, Sanne Wohlenberg, Luna, Luke Hull and John Gilroy. Tony Gilroy wrote the first three episodes, with Beau Willimon writing episodes 4-6, Dan Gilroy episodes 7-9 and Tom Bissell episodes 10-12.
