Of the eleven Star Wars movies, ROGUE ONE ranks 3rd on my favorites list. Sorry Return of the Jedi! With the upcoming ANDOR television series coming to the Disney+ streaming service, the movie that featured this new show's primary character, Rebel Alliance intelligence agent Cassian Jeron Andor, is returning to movie theaters.
ROGUE ONE: A STAR WARS STORY is being re-released on IMAX screens for a limited engagement of movie theater showings on August 26th. In addition to the featured presentation, the screenings will also include an exclusive look at the upcoming Disney+ ANDOR series. Who else is geeked about this? I sure am!

After the original trilogy of films, ROGUE ONE is my next favorite Star Wars movie. So, I'm really interested in seeing how the new live action TV series "Star Wars: Andor" that is coming to the Disney+ subscription streaming service pans out. The wait to find out is almost over as Disney+ has released a trailer and announced the show will premiere on August 31, 2022. A nice parting gift for the end of summer from Disney!
The “Andor” series will explore a new perspective from the Star Wars galaxy, focusing on Cassian Andor’s journey to discover the difference he can make. The series brings forward the tale of the burgeoning rebellion against the Empire and how people and planets became involved. It’s an era filled with danger, deception and intrigue where Cassian will embark on the path that is destined to turn him into a rebel hero.
For those of you who may have not seen ROGUE ONE which tells the story of how the Rebel Alliance gets their hands on the Death Star plans which are a critical plot point of the Star Wars film A New Hope (aka the first Star Wars movie), Cassian Andor is a lead character in that prequel movie. Cassian, played by Diego Luna, is an intelligence officer engaged in espionage against the Empire. Luna returns to the role for this Andor series. Like the Kenobi series, Andor will debut on Disney+ with its first two episodes being released at once.
I don't know a whole lot about this show, but from what I've seen of the trailer I'm excited. Who else is geeked about seeing this new Star Wars show on Disney+?!
