Andor Season 2 Could Release Faster With One Tweak Says Creator

Andor showrunner Tony Gilroy says there's one way the series could return sooner than anticipated, but it hinges on a post-production change: 'It's just very, very, very expensive.'

Andor creator Tony Gilroy says the show could return sooner than previously anticipated, provided it receives the right post-production funding. A prequel to Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Andor season 1 has focused on the early days of Cassian Andor in his pre-Rebellion days. While Cassian has been the main focus of the series, Andor has also delved into the lives of other major Rebellion players, including future Rebel leader Mon Mothma and resistance fighter Saw Gerrera.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Although the Andor season 1 finale is still yet to air, Gilroy has already begun discussing his plans for the show's future. During an interview with Collider, Gilroy says the scheduling of season 2 will likely be in line with the show's first run, with Andor expected to return to screens in two years. However, he could envision a scenario where it returns sooner, but it would require a major change.

"If past is predicate, and we do the same thing we did before, it'll be on the same schedule. It will come out two years later. The only place you can accelerate the processes is in post, and the only way you can accelerate in post is with money, and money is tight. So, I don't really know, there would have to be some serious motivation next May or June or something. Someone would have to say, "Wow, we really need this, and we're willing to pay X.

However, it appears viewers have a long time to wait to see how Andor's story plays out, especially if Gilroy's two-year timeline is anything to go by. Gilroy's comments about post-production funding are interesting, especially given the sheer size of the Disney estate, and it's strange to think that money would play such a major factor in getting a series out sooner if Disney so wished.

With Andor audience levels starting to fall more in line with the rest of the live-action Star Wars shows, it appears fans are finally beginning to appreciate one of the franchise's riskier endeavors. While Andor has tonally been more mature than many other Star Wars ventures, it's arguably been the breath of fresh air that the franchise has been longing for.
