The premiere of “Andor” is around the corner. The long-awaited spin-off of “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” starring Diego Luna will land on Disney + on September 21st. The story of this series is quite different than the rest of the recent “Star Wars” saga productions. On this occasion we will meet a much darker plot than usual.
As we saw a few days ago in the final trailer, in “Andor” there is still no Rebellion Against the Empire. This time we will have to look for it and see how it develops. Set five years before the events of “Rogue One”, it will show Cassian Andor’s journey to make a difference and become a rebel hero..
The series was created by Tony Gilroy, and will be directed by himself alongside Toby Haynes, Benjamin Caron and Susanna White. The rest of the cast is instead completed by Alan Tudyk, Adria Arjona, Genevieve O’Reilly, Stellan Skarsgård, Kyle Soller, Denise Gough, Anton Saunders, Fiona Shaw, Alex Lawther, Robert Emms, Harry Anton, Cairon Pearson and Karen Sampford. . Next, We leave you with some tweets of the first reactions of journalists who got to see ‘Andor’ exclusively.
I am absolutely blown away by the audacity of #ANDOR. We often have to say “Star Wars has always been political” to counter people who would deny this fact. Well, this show is actively angry with people who deny it. Bold, timely, raw and extremely thoughtful. Powerful work.

I’ve only seen the first two episodes of ANDOR so far, but it’s a very interesting and very different flavor of STAR WARS.
I like this new POV about this galaxy.

I saw the first 3 eps of #andor and I say it with the utmost conviction: this will be the show that will bring me back to Star Wars. ANDOR introduces new and memorable characters, as well as an intriguing story arc for Andor. And he actually has something to say!
Ep 3 is spectacular. pic.twitter.com/6iV23ot6Na

now that the #andor the social embargo has been lifted, I can say it’s easily the most cinematic of the Star Wars shows so far. The first three episodes were supposed to be presented as a 90-minute episode. The interruptions are very random, but it’s a great episode!

“Now that the social media embargo on ‘Andor’ has been lifted, I can say that it is easily the most cinematic of the “Star Wars” series so far.. The first three episodes were supposed to be presented as a single 90-minute episode. The breaks between them are very random, but it’s a great episode! “.
Apparently it’s “we’re all going to talk about how surprised we are that Andor is really good enough” in point! Add me to the list, it’s a pretty good spy noir shit. The whole opening sequence is so beautiful, seedy and dirty. Good stuff!

#andor is unlike any @Star Wars history that we have never seen before. @diegoluna_ he is at the center of a wonderful and dangerous world in turmoil. It’s gritty, mature, and the smartest and most knowledgeable story we’ve had to date. Tony Gilroy is a genius. pic.twitter.com/pfZwlmZ0HD

#andor reminds us that in a rebellion,? EVERYONE? MATTERS! We experience people at all levels of this galactic conflict grappling with the mess that blocks action and heroism. Down deep, up, and so many unexpected places in between. It might be my new favorite #Star Wars series pic.twitter.com/HTVgxY1TA9

“‘Andor’ reminds us that in a rebellion, EVERYONE MATTERS! At every level of this galactic conflict we experience people grappling with the disorder that accompanies action and heroism. In the depths, heights and many unexpected places. It could be my new favorite “Star Wars” series.”.
It’s a “slow fire” series.
Despite the number of good reviews received by the series, it is worth highlighting those that warn us of the slowness of the plot. Without going so far as to criticize it, some critics point out that its development is slow.
If you like Rogue One for all the ways it wasn’t a typical Star Wars movie, then you’ll probably like it #andor for many of the same reasons. It’s a slow-burning character drama. Diego Luna is excellent and after the first four episodes, I’m excited to see where he ends up. pic.twitter.com/iWquehxxVe

#andor is what Star Wars needs: a little taste of this IP’s full narrative potential. Very content and autonomous. It takes place as a series of slow-burning events. Consumed with intrigue in the big picture. The solitary fussy: occasional wobbly rhythm. Priority display. @Comic strip pic.twitter.com/yMjn3j2JEd

“‘Andor’ is what ‘Star Wars’ needed: a little taste of all the narrative potential of this IP. Very contained and self contained. It unfolds like a series of hot events. Intrigued to see where it goes. The only drawback: the occasionally irregular rhythm. display priority “.
I’ve seen the first four episodes #andor! I’m definitely intrigued where the story is going, but the 12 episode format really makes me want more. Great performance and slow build so far, can’t wait for the rest to come!

Written by Gilroy himself together with Stephen Schiff, Dan Gilroy and Beau Willimon, “Andor” tries to be a very different fiction from the views previously linked to the galactic universe of “Star Wars”. On September 21, Disney + will directly launch the first three episodes of the series.
