I could’ve sworn Gilroy suspended Post production until further notice, no? Or atleast, what he was doing then.

Gilroy essentially was forced into disobeying Disney’s orders and ceasing his Producing duties due to the strike and being called a scab with threats to kick him out of the WGA.

Andor has not halted production though, which is where my worry lies.

Yay Disney will help make one of the best Star Wars things ever worst....it's one of the qualities of the current management is not respecting Star Wars and just pushing out anything with its logo on it

this is a decent breakdown of the situation disney has put its showrunners in. as is common in situations like this, the studios are trying to pit the labor pool against itself to make their own bargaining position stronger.

Other things like ABC’s Fall lineup that Disney described as “strike proof” with only 4 of the 24 hours of content in the lineup are scripted. Of the 4 hours, one is Abbott Elementary re-runs, a few are for Wonderful World of Disney on Sundays, and I forget the fourth. Everything else is unscripted.

This signals Disney is in this for the long hall potentially. If I were them on this weak ass lineup, I’d 100% have Andor S1 playing in a prime time slot all fall to get it more exposure.

I'm so excited for season 2....for an excuse to rewatch this show.....just...god the powerful scenes are so dam good. Like good on the writers for giving us a mature Star Wars that has the heart of the OG films but writer by people who really understand just how to write the empire and rebels

 

[Jake S]

Andor is what I was hoping Rogue One would offer. What is it like to be a regular person under the thumb of the Empire? Really looking forward to the second season of this.

Filming for the second season is done. Hopefully it can still release late this year, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it slips into January.

I hope its just enough to be worth it for him on sets but not too much, also would not mind Tarkin showing up for one scene

I would also guess Saw, K2SO and some rebel leaders from Rogue one to be in this season and hopefully no Jynn besides a wanted poster or something

Not surprising, they killed it with the first season. Excited to watch it tomorrow

Also if you want a book that is kinda a similar style read
The Mask of Fear (Reign of the Empire) its about Mon Mothma, Saw Gerrera, and Bail Organa during the first year of the Empire being formed

 

[Jerroddragon]

Finished the first two episodes

Man this show is not for everyone, I love it but for sure if you do not know the characters I get how this show is not for you

 

[Wesker69]

Can't find the post now, but there are rumblings of Disney putting the finale(?) episodes in theatres along with Rogue One which will be celebrating its 10th anniversary next year

.....I need my eye to stop twitching from the 10 year anniversary reminder

 

[Jerroddragon]

Finished episode 8

Just hot dam, the writing in this show just blows away other Star Wars

I know it can't all be this but man do I hope they hire this team at least for any more political plots, like compared this to High Republics politics...and feels like one of them understands how governments work and the other just makes crap up to fit a plot

I mean I do not like the sequels but give me a series set showing how the first order and Resistance starts off with these writers and I'm in

[Jerroddragon]

The show has such great Parallel's to both history and whats literally happening right now

 

[Wesker69]

Star Wars prequels warned us. We didn't listen

Same with Terminator & iRobot... and M3gan
