"Andor" season two marks a significant evolution in the "Star Wars" franchise by intertwining intense action with profound character studies and relevant sociopolitical commentary. Set just before the events of "Rogue One" and "A New Hope," the storyline focuses on the Galactic Empire's brutal tactics against the Ghorman people, reflecting historical atrocities. Showrunner Tony Gilroy emphasizes the show's intention to resonate with current global issues and expresses his goal of crafting narratives that feel timeless rather than tied to a specific era. The performances are impactful, enhancing the series' compelling message.
When Business Insider asked showrunner Tony Gilroy what he wanted audiences to take away from "Andor" season two he said, "The sorry truth is that we always think that we live in special times and that everything that's happening to us is unique. And the point of fact is: Peace and prosperity are the rarity."
"It was all too easy to pick comparables for the show from many, many historical sources," he added. "We're not writing with a newspaper in mind. We're trying to write something that's timeless."
