Nothing about the different character’s personalities is directly thrown into our faces, instead, it’s left for us to sift through and determine for ourselves.
The way Andor is handling the build-up of its characters is fantastic.

RELATED: Tales of the Jedi: What We Know About The Exciting New Star Wars Series The Incredible Character Building in Star Wars: Andor It’s a nice change and makes for a more interesting, intriguing, and relatable story. Dialogue is layered and done in a more nuanced fashion similar to that of Mad Men and other well-loved character-driven stories. In Andor, they talk like normal people rather than in an overdramatized, spectacle-heavy and terse way that people have come to expect from the epic sci-fi adventure franchise. Unlike previous Star Wars series or films, where dialogue was more “punchy” (like in The Mandalorian) or awkwardly and cornily phrased, the conversation between characters has become more realistic and subtle. There are even some topics that aren’t directly addressed by the characters, but the way they have been included in the Andor story makes the message very clear. The way topics are brought up flows nicely and are even used as a way to do world-building, or give us more information about a character. In fact, at times the topic fits so well into the narrative of the story that it actually adds to it. Some very real-world problems and topics are brought up throughout the Star Wars series, but they are done in a way that doesn’t break away from the story unnecessarily or take away from the narrative. The creators of Andor decided to their hand at it and they did not disappoint. Over the years, there have been a lot of shows and movies that have tried to address more complex topics and more often than not they will completely ruin the story with a very poor attempt. The creator of Andor, showrunner Tony Gilroy (who was also the one behind Rogue One: A Star Wars Story), as well as the numerous actors and crew members that worked together on this project, have put a lot of love and effort into the story they are trying to tell and that is made very clear by how captivating the new Disney+ series is. But we are not only being shown Cassian’s story and everything that led up to him Rebel Alliance Intelligence Operative but also the story about the community of Rebels that was built during that time. It takes its time to reintroduce us to a character that we haven’t seen in a while and presents us with the world that he lived in before we met him in Rogue One.

RELATED: Andor Trailer: Witness The Beginning Of The Rebellion Intriguing NarrativeĪndor is told at a much slower pace than Disney+’s other Star Wars TV shows. Let’s take a look at Disney+’s new Star Wars series, Andor, shall we? Not only are we getting more content with everyone’s favourite (more morally grey) disgruntedly caring, spy and assassin, Cassian Andor (played by Diego Luna), but we were going to be returning to a grittier version of Star Wars than many of them had come to prefer. The gritty Rogue One was such a sharp contrast to previous Star Wars movies and quickly became one of the favourites among fans, so when Disney+ dropped the first trailer for Andor, those same fans (myself included) were absolutely over the moon. It was also one of the first mainstream movies that showed the brutality of war and killed off the entirety of its main cast permanently. They are all ground-level foot soldiers who were fighting as hard as they can so they could get the Death Star plans to the Rebel Alliance and give them a chance against the Empire. RELATED: Andor Cast & Crew Believe It’ll Change the Star Wars UniverseĢ016’s Rogue One: A Star Wars Story was one of the Star Wars franchise’s darker and more mature movies that told the story of characters that are not particularly important in the greater scheme of the story. While Disney+’s Obi-Wan Kenobi might have brought back Hayden Christensen’s Darth Vader and his former master, Ben Kenobi (Ewan McGregor) for another epic battle, Star Wars: Andor brings the entire galaxy to the forefront of the war.
