Tony Gilroy reveals exactly how much time will have passed when Andor returns for its second season.
Since it was revealed that Andor would have a second season to continue exploring Cassian Andor's journey within the rebellion, audiences have known that he is on a collision course with his tragic death during the events of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Tony Gilroy has also made it clear that Season 2 will be on a much more fast-paced timeline, with 3-episode blocks spanning a year of time as it careens towards the beginning of Rogue One.
Ahead of the Season 1 finale, Collider's own Steve Weintraub had the opportunity to chat with Gilroy about both seasons, including what the timeline looks like we reunite with Cassian Andor sometime in 2024. The creator revealed that Season 2 won't open with a continuation of Cassian and Luthen's tense conversation aboard the haulcraft. Instead, we'll be facing our very first major time jump. As he explained, "It'll be a year later after what you just saw.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Now that Cassian is invested in the rebellion, following his incarceration on Narkina 5 and his mother's death, it makes sense that Andor would opt to jump further ahead in the timeline and showcase a man who is fully embedded in the rebellion. This also gives Gilroy and the team much more room to introduce major players into the story, and lay the groundwork for Cassian's kill-or-be-killed attitude that we first encounter in Rogue One.
The entire first season of Andor is streaming now on Disney+. For more on Andor, watch our exclusive interview with Andy Serkis below.
