It somehow feels like decades since we last saw Cassian Andor in action. But finally, Disney+ has put Star Wars fans out of their misery today by premiering the first trailer for Andor season 2. Season two, which follows Cassian as he navigates life under the rule of the Empire, will arrive on Disney+ on April 23rd, 2025.
The upcoming season will consist of 12 episodes. These 12 episodes will then be split into three-episode chapters, with each chapter focusing on a different year of Cassian’s life before the events of Rogue One. With that, it’s very likely that the final episode of Season two will feature some heavy ties to Rogue One, the Erso family, and Krennic’s secret weapon.
Watch the brand new trailer in the player below:
This second season will see the return of Orson Krennic (Ben Mendelsohn), Saw Gerrera (Forest Whitaker), Mon Mothma (Genevieve O’Reilly) and Luthen Rael (Stellan Skarsgård).
Andor was created by Tony Gilroy, who also serves as an executive producer along with Kathleen Kennedy, Sanne Wohlenberg, Diego Luna, Luke Hull and John Gilroy. Tony Gilroy wrote the first three episodes, with Beau Willimon writing episodes 4-6, Dan Gilroy penning episodes 7-9 and Tom Bissell putting pen to paper for episodes 10-12.
The directors for the series are Ariel Kleiman (episodes 1-6), Janus Metz (episodes 7-9) and Alonso Ruizpalacios (episodes 10-12).
