Latest news on Andor Season 2 release

Andor Season 2 will debut on Disney+ on April 22, 2025, and will consist of 12 episodes. But don't worry—fans will not have to wait 12 weeks to watch the upcoming chapter, as the show's release has been divided into four chapters, each with three episodes.

Season 2 will premiere with the first three episodes and release the next three episodes simultaneously every week until May 13, 2025. The different chapters will depict different time periods in Cassain's life, as the upcoming chapter will cover 5 years of his life, until the events of Rogue One.

Season 2 will be more closely aligned to the events of Rogue One, as it will follow Cassian's journey in the Rebel Alliance. The trailer also shows him infiltrating the Seinarr labs and stealing a prototype while Mon Mothma's daughter's wedding preparations take full swing.


What to expect from Andor Season 2?

Since Andor was conceived as a five-season plan, makers and writers had to accommodate Cassian's five-year journey into one season due to budget constraints. The upcoming season will have many time jumps to accommodate that time, which is actually unusual for a show.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Gilroy opens up about the upcoming season saying:

"...it's emotionally powerful; it's narratively powerful; it adds to the adventure of the story; it intensifies all the romantic entanglements to have these year-long negative gaps in between and to land for just a very specific moment. It's three or four days each time we land.''

He added:

"I can't think of a better way to lay it out than what we lucked into. Because the idea that it takes a year and 12 episodes for him to evolve into a revolutionary, it really needed all of that room for that."
