Andor (2022)

Andor is a tense, character-driven prequel to Rogue One that follows Cassian Andor’s slow, dangerous transformation from a desperate outsider into a committed Rebel operative. Watching the series you’ll be drawn into a darker, grittier side of the Star Wars galaxy — a spy-thriller of covert missions, political oppression and moral ambiguity rather than space opera spectacle. The show prioritizes atmosphere and slow-burn storytelling: expect careful worldbuilding, layered conspiracies, and emotionally raw performances (led by Diego Luna) that make every compromise and betrayal feel heavy and consequential. You’ll see how ordinary people, planets and institutions are pulled into rebellion, and the series repeatedly asks what freedom and resistance cost. Overall, Andor delivers suspenseful action, thoughtful drama, and a sobering, immersive look at the origins of a hero and the price of fighting an empire.
