A brand-new clip from Andor has revealed the best way to infiltrate the Empire.
The official Twitter account for Andor debuted the first scene from the upcoming Star Wars series, which featured Diego Luna's Cassian Andor explaining to Stellan Skarsgård's Luthen Rael that the best way to steal from the Empire is to just "walk in like you belong." After Luthen expressed disbelief at the simplicity of Cassian's answer, the future Rebel hero laughed and said, "What do you need? A uniform, some dirty hands, and an Imperial toolkit. They're so proud of themselves they don't even care. They're so fat and satisfied they can't imagine it. That someone like me would ever get inside their house."
Skarsgård's Luthen Rael is one of several new Star Wars characters that will make their debut in Andor. The Disney+ series will also feature a couple of familiar faces with Genevieve O'Reilly and Forest Whitaker set to reprise their roles from previous Star Wars media as Mon Mothma and Saw Gerrera. O'Reilly has already confirmed that Andor will explore Mon Mothma's backstory, allowing fans to "learn about the human being -- the woman behind the gown, if you will." Fans are also excited to see Whitaker back as the fan-favorite Clone Wars veteran with some hoping the series will finally answer some of the biggest mysteries surrounding the character.
Andor Will Track the Character's Journey Into a Rebel Hero
Andor is set five years before the events of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and explores a new perspective from the Star Wars galaxy, focusing on the burgeoning rebellion against the Empire. The series promises to be filled with danger, deception and intrigue and explore the journey that led Cassian Andor to turn into the rebel hero seen in the 2016 film. Luna has previously explained that Cassian's journey into a hero will not be an easy one. "We find him in a place where he’s not aware of how capable he is of transforming or being part of change or executing such a sacrifice, but he is the man that comes out from fighting since he was six years old," said Luna about his titular character. "He's a very interesting, dark, wounded person. You’re not going to believe that he's capable of what he does in Rogue One."
Andor also stars Adria Arjona, Fiona Shaw, Denise Gough, Kyle Soller, Robert Emms and David Hayman, Anton Lesser, Kathryn Hunter, Alex Ferns, Clemens Schick and Ebon Moss-Bachrach. The first three episodes of Andor premiere on Disney+ on Sept. 31.
