Andor changed the game of Star Wars. In the middle of a strange era for the franchise, where anything seemed possible after the sequel trilogy, Tony Gilroy made a twisting spy thriller focused on the story of Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) as he became one of the first operatives for the Rebellion. It became an instant hit, garnering Emmy nominations and instantly launching Star Wars TV into a new era.
One of the greatest strengths of Andor is how grounded it seems. It may have taken place a long time ago in a galaxy far away, but the story was absolutely timeless. However, a new book has revealed that initially, one of the biggest parts of Cassian’s life was very alien. In fact, it could have involved a fan-favorite alien race.
