Andor has set itself apart from the rest of the Star Wars TV universe in several ways. There’s the prequel-to-the-prequel setting, the focus on the non-Force-sensitive members of the Rebellion, and the spy thriller tone. But one of the most jarring distinctions is its structure. Andor Season 1 covered Cassian’s journey into the Rebellion over 12 episodes, and now Season 2 has a tall task ahead of it: Covering the four years between the Andor Season 1 finale and the start of Rogue One. To help move things along, Tony Gilroy has revealed there will be a time jump between the two seasons. That’s always a sketchy plot device, but it could be good news here.
