Star Wars Releases New Andor Clip
Today the official Star Wars social media pages shared a new clip from Andor. The video shows Luthen Rael (Stellan Skarsgård) asking Diego Luna’s Cassian how he stole from the Empire. The promise of additional monetary compensation provokes Andor to speak on the Empire’s hubris. Check out the clip here:
This is where I, yet again, grudgingly admit this show looks pretty good. I don’t want to get excited about another Star Wars show after Obi-Wan and Boba Fett burned me earlier this year. The Mandalorian and the animated shows (aside from Resistance) have been pretty consistent, but those projects have Dave Filoni’s fingerprints on them. I question how much he was involved with Resistance; same for him and Jon Favreau on Boba Fett. Despite their lofty credits for the show, it didn’t seem like their other work. The cast and visuals look great in Andor. I love the dynamic between the actors in this clip; the dialogue is intelligent and believable. Part of me expects this to be the dark horse Star Wars show that’s actually good; it looks more expensive than the two shows I mentioned that starred far more famous characters. Time will tell, and I don’t want to get my hopes up, but this looks great.
But what do you think? Do you like the clip? Are you going to watch Andor next month, or have you had enough of these great-looking but disappointing shows? Talk to us!
