Andor Season 2 has been confirmed to return in April 2025, much to the delight of Star Wars fans who have been eagerly waiting for the announcement. The Rogue One prequel series has been praised as one of the best TV shows of the decade, and viewers can expect more of the same high-quality storytelling in the upcoming season.
The news of Andor’s return came after the Disney+ app accidentally revealed the season 2 debut date in an in-app ad. The new season will consist of 12 episodes and will feature time jumps, with each section covering a span of a few days before jumping forward a year. Showrunner Tony Gilroy, along with writers Beau Willimon, Dan Gilroy, and Tom Bissell, are working on crafting a compelling storyline that leads directly into the events of Star Wars: Rogue One.
Diego Luna, who stars in Andor, has teased that the ending of the show will make Rogue One feel like a “different” movie in a good way. The series has been praised for its script, acting, character development, and world-building, setting it apart from other Star Wars shows on Disney+. While it’s disappointing that Andor will only have one more season, it’s refreshing to see creatives being able to tell a complete story without the pressure to extend it unnecessarily.
Looking ahead to 2025, Star Wars fans can anticipate the arrival of Skeleton Crew in December, while the Mandalorian & Grogu movie is set for 2026. Ahsoka season 2 is also on the horizon, but it’s unclear if it will premiere before the Mandalorian movie. With a relatively sparse Star Wars lineup in 2025, now is the perfect time for viewers to catch up on Andor and appreciate the show for its exceptional storytelling and character development.
