About Andor
Andor is a Star Wars story unlike any other—a grounded, mature thriller about the birth of rebellion. Following Cassian Andor five years before Rogue One, the show explores how ordinary people become revolutionaries when faced with tyranny.
Created by Tony Gilroy, Andor strips away the mysticism of the Force to focus on the human cost of resistance. From corporate espionage on Ferrix to the horrors of Imperial prison labor, the show presents the galaxy far, far away with unprecedented realism.
The show has been praised as the best Star Wars content since the original trilogy, offering complex characters, sharp political commentary, and a slow-burn narrative that rewards patient viewers.
