Lucasfilm's latest StarWars series Andor has finally premiered on Disney+, and despite treading familiar canon, it has a chance to make that era feel fresh.
After the long road starting from the lead character’s inception in 2016’s Rogue One: A Star Wars Story to the series’ announcement in 2018, Andor has finally premiered on Disney+ with the potential to be the most ambitious show on the streamer since The Mandalorian. The three-episode premiere made a solid first impression, showcasing exciting new elements to see front and center in a Star Wars production.
It’s an exciting take on the concept of another precursor to a beloved trilogy of movies, especially by giving Rogue One a more grounded and Star Wars-themed war epic/heist wrapping. However, as concepts, both Rogue One and Andor represent the seeming obsession Lucasfilm has with the post-Revenge of the Sith and pre-A New Hope era of Star Wars canon.
But that’s why, in a way, Andor comes off as being even more impressive. In its three episodes so far, the series has risen to the unique challenge of justifying its existence in a crowded field. It also had a unique set of challenges facing it, from a certain point of view: The show is another Original Trilogy prequel and Cassian Andor isn’t a big legacy character.
It’s certainly been alluded to elsewhere and could easily become something hyperbolic to say, but it’s not unreasonable to think that elements of what the series has shown so far are shades of HBO-like political intrigue. Though it’s obviously not a new invention, the likes of Game of Thrones have popularized the drama of intertwining plot threads across a diverse cast of characters scattered around its world.
