Andor Star Wars Series Begins September 21 on Disney+
The Andor Star Wars Series is almost here, and the galaxy is about to change. Disney+ just dropped a brand-new trailer for the upcoming series from Lucasfilm, which officially premieres on Wednesday, September 21, with a three-episode debut.
What is the Andor Star Wars Series About?
The Andor Star Wars Series is a prequel to Rogue One, exploring the rebel journey of Cassian Andor. Set during the rise of the Empire, it follows Andor’s early mission as he begins to understand his place in the growing rebellion.
This Star Wars story dives into a darker time. It shows how average people, like Andor, became part of something greater than themselves.
Cassian Andor’s Rise to Rebel Hero
In this 12-episode series, Cassian’s journey takes him into dangerous territory. He discovers deception, builds unlikely alliances, and slowly becomes a key part of the Rebel Alliance. The Andor Star Wars Series reveals how rebellions begin—one choice at a time.
The show promises a grounded, spy-thriller tone that feels very different from other Star Wars content.
Dark Times and Rising Hope
Set during the rise of the Empire, Andor brings a gritty, grounded feel to Star Wars storytelling. The series explores how entire planets—and the individuals who live there—join the fight for freedom. The rebellion isn’t born overnight. It rises slowly, with risk, sacrifice, and defiance.
From high-stakes missions to tense political backchannels, every moment builds toward the spark that will ignite the galaxy.
An All-Star Cast Joins the Fight
Diego Luna returns as Cassian Andor, the fan-favorite character introduced in Rogue One. He’s joined by a standout ensemble cast: Genevieve O’Reilly, Stellan Skarsgård, Adria Arjona, Denise Gough, Kyle Soller, and Fiona Shaw.
The series was created by Tony Gilroy, who co-wrote Rogue One. He serves as showrunner and executive producer, alongside Kathleen Kennedy, Michelle Rejwan, Sanne Wohlenberg, and Luna.
