Star Wars: Andor Season 2 Set for 2024 Release

Looks like the wait for the second and final season of Andor is going to be longer then most expected. Star Wars Celebration 2023 has begun and it revealed that the season will not begin airing on Disney+ until August 2024. The series short description is summarized well by Gizmodo, saying "having set up different rebel factions and the key players in those groups, like Cassian, Mon Mothma (Genevieve O’Reilly), and Luthen (Stellan SkarsgĂ„rd), season two can now show how those groups come together to form the Rebel Alliance."
Footage shown at Celebration teased the return of key characters, including Rebel cell members Vel Sartha and Luthen Rael (in and out of his disguise as an antiquities dealer), as well as Syril Karn, who appears to have gone up in the world, and been thrust into a higher class of Imperial citizenship. Scenes also showed Mon Mothma slowly building alliances, trying to bring her disparate senatorial and rebellious worlds together as dissent grows across the galaxy. Several shots showed a protest being policed by Stormtroopers, where violence breaks out with lots of explosions and lots of chaos. But at the heart of it all was footage of Cassian, both skulking through hallways and seemingly coming into his own as a Rebel spy. The trailer concluded with Luthen echoing his comment from season one—“Don’t you want to fight these bastards for real?”—over a shot of Cassian, dressed up in a fancy suit with his hair slicked back, in some kind of fancy bar.
