The Acolyte is an upcoming Star Wars series that has sort of flown under the radar since it was announced in December 2020, but production is ramping up - and with it, reports about the cast are starting to trickle out within the past month. Deadline previously reported that Lee Jung-jae has been cast as [...]
Star Wars fans are definitely overly concerned about retcons, by and large. For the most part, a show coming along and offering a minor and innocent retcon isn't that big of a deal, and it shouldn't be made into one. As an example, the vast majority of people watching the first three episodes of Andor [...]
In the first three episodes of Andor, as the storyline that's set in 5 BBY is being told, we also get several glimpses at flashbacks to Cassian's youth. As a child on Kenari, Cassian (then known as Kassa) is part of a tribe that witnesses a ship crash landing on their planet, and he joins [...]
There's plenty about Andor that is unique for Star Wars fans, but one thing in particular really stood out to me from the opening moments of the first episode. As we see Cassian walking on a dark, rainy night, text appears on the screen telling us that he's on Morlana One. That's a tactic also [...]
The series premiere of Andor has released on Disney+! The first three episodes of the series were released together, which was a brilliant choice (especially after seeing how they go together). It's a terrific start for the show, and it clearly establishes how this will be very different from what we've come to expect from [...]
The Bad Batch has been delayed, but it's still coming soon. Dave Filoni announced at the D23 event on Saturday that the second season of the animated series will premiere on Disney+ on January 4, 2023. The first two episodes will premiere on that date. That's several months later than the original plan. At Celebration [...]
It's a great day to be a Star Wars fan! This afternoon at the D23 Expo, Lucasfilm and Marvel combined forces for a superstar panel teasing much of their upcoming content. Lucasfilm was up first, and they delivered in a big way. Hosted by Kathy Kennedy, Lucasfilm promoted Andor, Willow, Tales of the Jedi, The [...]
Ezra Bridger is coming to live-action Star Wars. It was reported today (first by Cinelinx and then confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter) that Eman Esfandi has been cast as Bridger for the upcoming Ahsoka series, which is coming to Disney+ in 2023. Ezra Bridger was one of the main characters of the successful Star Wars [...]
Happy Disney+ Day! A new special look at Andor has been released, with us just two weeks away from the show's premiere. The ten-minute special look begins with some interviews with star Diego Luna and showrunner Tony Gilroy, as they discuss what it's about and what fans should expect. That then leads into an extended [...]
On September 21, the first three episodes of Andor will premiere on Disney+, launching the latest live-action Star Wars series on the platform.
