Film crews have been spotted in a West Country quarry to film the latest series of a Star Wars spin-off. Production for the second series of Star Wars: Andor, which takes place before the events of Rogue One and focuses on the early formation of the Rebellion, is underway and some scenes will be shot in Dorset.
Dorset Live reports the series was renewed and therefore filming has returned. Disney+ Film crews were seen lugging around their heavy equipment at the picturesque Winspit Quarry, near Worth Matravers, ahead of a second stint of filming later this month.
The West Country beauty spot served as Saw Gerrera's headquarters and was featured in the eighth episode in the sci-fi series. The scene at Segra Milo Partisan base, which uses a bit of CGI trickery, saw rebel Stellan Skarsgard's Luthen Rael meet with Partisan leader Saw Gerrera inside the base to discuss a potential mission.
