Diego Luna and ‘Andor’ Cast on Bringing a New ‘Star Wars’ Story to Light

‘Andor,’ a darker tale in the ‘Star Wars’ saga, is a prequel to 2016 film ‘Rogue One,’ which starred Felicity Jones as Jyn Erso and Diego Luna as Cassian Andor. Where that entry in the universe revealed Jyn Erso’s youth and recruitment to the Resistance, the new Disney series tells Cassian Andor’s transformation from post-war survivor to rebel spy. Showrunner Tony Gilroy and the writing team kept the cast grounded in the story “that just happens to be in a galaxy far, far away,” Adria Arjona, who plays Bix Caleen, told Rotten Tomatoes correspondent Naz Perez. Luna, Arjona, and fellow cast members Genevieve O’Reilly (“Mon Mothma”), Kyle Soller (“Syril Karn”), and Denise Gough (“Dedra Meero”) revealed their favorite ‘Star Wars’ moments and more when Rotten Tomatoes caught up with them. ► Learn more: Subscribe to the channel and click the bell icon to be notified of new videos: 00:00 Diego Luna
