Leaked photos from the set of the upcoming Disney+ Star Wars series Andor show the return of the iconic shoretroopers from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
The batch of leaked photos contains more than a dozen images from a location shoot on the English coast. Along with the beach-themed troopers both in and out of their helmets, there are shots of Diego Luna in costume, some decidedly tourist-trap-looking displays of sunglasses and postcards and another actor in a motion-capture suit.
A few images show what looks like a beach resort of some sort with alien alphabet signage, some likely space tourists in what passes for casual beach garb in the Star Wars universe and a few vendor stalls to go with the wares display. Andor is also seen interacting with a shoretrooper in one of the pictures, with both characters motioning in opposite directions indicating some sort of possible dispute.
After some troubles in both pre-production and with showrunner/director staffing, production on the Andor is up and running. The show is being billed as a spy thriller set five years before the events of Rogue One, and in addition to Genevieve O'Reilly reprising her role as Mon Mothma, Ewan McGregor's Obi-Wan Kenobi is also rumored to appear.
Disney+'s Andor stars Diego Luna, Adria Arjona, Genevieve O'Reilly, Stellan Skarsgård, Denise Gough and Kyle Soller. The series will arrive on Disney+ in 2022.
