Look promising, though why would the trailer for it not be released in 4K?

Wow does that look amazing. I hope the show is as good as the trailer!

All three sequels trailers looked amazing as well. To be fair.

This trailer implies that Andor starts out as some kind of apolitical resister, someone who dislikes the Empire and is happy to kill a few stormtroopers or whatever if they’re interfering with his agenda, but otherwise has no larger revolutionary ambitions. Then he gets recruited by the Skarsgard character, who sells him on the idea of working for a larger purpose.
Which is basically exactly the same thing that Andor does for Jyn Erso.
In other words, for the prequel to _Rogue One,_ they’re just remaking _Rogue One?_

Was that Chief Superintendent Bright from “Endeavour” in the white uniform?

I just want to see more K-2SO.
Although this series is an origin story. I don’t know how far back Andor and K2 go back together.

Cool. He’s not showing up in IMDB yet as being in this. He’s great in Endeavour.

Pretty sure they said K2 won’t show up until Season 2.

Season 2. Alright, a reason to keep watching unless Season 1 is a turd. Also makes storytelling sense.
This thread is the literal first information I’ve had about this show, beyond mere awareness that it is coming.

The period between Eps 3 & 4 is my favorite in the SW universe, so I’m excited about this. I know people are tired of them tapping the same well, but I’m still not sick of watching how life evolved under the empire and how the rebellion developed. R1, Rebels, Kenobi, Solo…I love these shows/movies. Andor looks amazing!

The background material for Rogue One said that Cassian Andor was from a _separatist_ planet.

The production values look insanely high. Much more so than for either of the Mandolorian seasons, Boba Fett or Kenobi. They have confirmed that there will be flashbacks. They have also been very cagy with their statements. For instance they are saying that _the Emperor and Vader won’t appear_. I wonder if that is a round about way of saying that Anakin and Chancellor Palpatine will appear?
I wouldn’t be surprised that if they do go that route, Padme also appears? It makes some sense. Mon Mothama is known mostly from cameo appearances in Ep III and VI. Breaking her in by showing her as Padme colleague might be a better way to go and make the audience invested in her as a character.

I didn’t see any deserts. Are we sure this is a _Star Wars_ show? 😁

I don’t remember this in the movie.

I think this bit of backstory comes from sources such as the Rogue One Ultimate Visual Guide, which AFAIK has unknown canonicity.

Maybe it will be blessed in the series, if they get into Andor’s biography.

It’s from those yes.
And the trailers show **clone** troopers marching on Cassians home planet.
