One of the big mysteries of the Star Wars sequel trilogy was the identity of the sinister Supreme Leader Snoke, introduced in The Force Awakens as the shadowy leader behind the First Order. As the trilogy went on we learned more about him, but there are things that still remain unknown - especially about his [...]
Andor will, finally, be telling the story of how Cassian Andor met K-2SO, his lovable and trusty droid sidekick. We've known since some of the earliest days of the show's announcement that this was coming, but showrunner Tony Gilroy made the decision not to include it in season one and instead push it to season [...]
When the first season of Andor concluded with the late Maarva Andor giving a rousing speech to spark rebellion on Ferrix, Star Wars fans began sleuthing and very quickly developed a theory: that her "fight the Empire!" cry was originally meant to be a bit different. Namely, that it was meant to drop the first [...]
When the preview pages for Legacy of Vader were released back in January, there was a panel in particular that created a lot of stir in the Star Wars fandom: images of Darth Vader killing Watto. It created a lot of discussion because, well, everything does with Star Wars fans online. But it turns out [...]
There is a lot to like about Andor - but maybe best of all is the simply terrific cast turning in simply terrific performances everywhere you look. Among them is Stellan Skarsgard as Luthen Rael, a brand new character created for the series but who immediately became compelling to fans. Luthen represents a kind of [...]
Lucasfilm is really beginning to pick up the promotion for Andor season two, and is doing so in large part by trying to appeal to a broader fanbase to gain more viewers. This was evident in the initial trailer for the season that was tonally quite different from the past, but that also played up [...]
When Andor season one was airing, we speculated that season two could show the Ghorman Massacre. In recent days it became increasingly clear that this major turning point would be included in the show, and now showrunner Tony Gilroy has confirmed as much. Speaking with Collider as part of the press tour for Andor, Gilroy [...]
When Star Wars announced the full panel schedule for Celebration Japan, one panel caught my attention above the rest. Sure, there are panels for some of the franchise's headliners, like The Mandalorian & Grogu, Andor, and Ahsoka. But there's another panel that has the potential to really steal the headlines. On the first day of [...]
We're just over a month away from Star Wars Celebration Japan, and the list of panels has now been announced, giving us an idea of what to expect. Friday, April 18, will be headlined by The Mandalorian & Grogu panel, where Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni will be joined by other guests to discuss the [...]
In a blink-and-you-miss-it moment of the new special look at Andor season two, we see a glimpse of Mon Mothma walking with a dignified-looking Tarsunt - and I'm guessing he's someone we've already seen before. Though not confirmed, it looks an awful lot like Lanever Villecham. I'm guessing it's the same guy, and that means [...]
