Cassian Andor will return. It’s simply going to occur later than expected.
Earlier this week, a Disney+ press release revealed precisely which exhibits the corporate is anticipating to debut on the streamer in 2024. For Star Wars, it talked about Skeleton Crew and The Acolyte, however that was it. Noticeably absent was season two of Andor, the award-winning spy present starring Diego Luna which showrunner Tony Gilroy stated was aiming to arrive summer of 2024.
Now, that’s not going to occur. A supply near the present confirmed to io9 that whereas Acolyte and Skeleton Crew are scheduled to return out in 2024 (together with some animated exhibits like the ultimate season of The Unhealthy Batch), Andor season two just isn’t anticipated to affix them. The explanations are the present was pressured right into a mid-production delay as a result of writers and actors strikes, in addition to the discharge of the opposite two exhibits, which can take up a very good chunk of the yr.
The supply didn’t 100% shut the guide on Andor season two debuting in 2024, however made it appear extremely unlikely.
Actually, this can be a disappointment for followers who had been hoping to see the continuation, and conclusion, of Cassian’s story as quickly as humanly doable. Nonetheless, do you actually need Gilroy and his group to hurry issues simply to hit a launch date? Particularly when Lucasfilm has two model new Star Wars exhibits coming beforehand, with all new characters and tales from model new artistic minds? After all not. So we’re selecting to take a look at this as a glass-half-full state of affairs.
Plus, with the following Star Wars film not coming until 2026, 2025 is prone to now have each Andor and season 4 of The Mandalorian, although the latter’s launch window is educated hypothesis. That may be a pleasant combine for the yr, proper? Disney CEO Bob Iger has also been insistent in latest months that the corporate not needs to flood the market with its massive model names. All of which is to say, the delay could be greatest for everybody.
There you have got it. Andor season two is probably going coming in 2025. Are you upset about Andor’s delay? Do you assume season two can reside as much as the unique? Tell us under.
