Stars and filmmakers gathered for a special evening to celebrate the upcoming season of the hit Star Wars series on Disney+
Disney+ held an immersive sneak peek event in London to promote Lucasfilm's "Andor" Season 2. The event, which took place at the Lightroom in Kings Cross, marked the anticipation surrounding the critically acclaimed series' final season.
Attendees were treated to a recap of Season 1, followed by an exclusive preview of the upcoming season. The event included a fun panel discussion with key people like Tony Gilroy (creator, writer, and executive producer), Diego Luna (star and executive producer), and other cast members, including Stellan Skarsgrd.
At the event, Diego Luna shared his excitement, "I can't wait for people to watch it, it's going to surprise people!" The second season unfolds as the horizon of war draws near, with Cassian Andor (Luna) becoming a pivotal player in the Rebel Alliance.Luna added, Cassian discovers "what fighting for cause means, what a revolution means."
The narrative emphasizes rising stakes, betrayals, sacrifices, and conflicting agendas, all set against a backdrop of political intrigue. "Andor" sets the clock back five years from the events of "Rogue One" to tell the story of the film's hero, Cassian Andor, and his transformation from a disinterested, cynical nobody into a rebel hero on his way to an epic destiny.
"Andor" Season 2 features a talented cast, including Diego Luna, Stellan Skarsgrd, Genevieve O'Reilly, Denise Gough, Kyle Soller, Adria Arjona, Alan Tudyk, Faye Marsay, Varada Sethu, Elizabeth Dulau, Ben Mendelsohn and Forest Whitaker.
The first three episodes premiere April 22, with new chapters debuting weekly, exclusively on Disney+.
