Star Wars series Andor showed off behind-the-scenes footage and clips of season 2 at D23 in Anaheim. TIE fighters, Stormtroopers, riots, and rebels proved that there'll be plenty to look forward to when it airs on Disney+ next year.

Andor's star Diego Luna took to the Anaheim stage to share just how much the show's first season had meant to him, and what to expect from season 2.
"'Rogue One changed my life. I’ve lived with Cassian Andor for 10 years now. Being able to complete this story that starts with Season 1 to Rogue One, is great. In the first season, we go through a single year. He lives under the rule of the empire. Got a taste of courage," he told attendees.
"This second part of the story will follow Cassian over a four-year period as he grows into the rebel hero we know in Rogue one. In this season, the stakes are greater, enemies more organized, and clock is ticking. Empire threat grows, Andor has a high purpose, freedom and a better tomorrow."
Earlier this year Luna revealed more characters from Rogue One will show up in Andor Season 2. The show's place in the Star Wars timeline means the latest season will take the story up to just three days before the events of Rogue One.
Andor Season 2's August 2024 premiere was announced at Star Wars Celebration in April 2023 but was delayed, almost certainly due to the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) and Writers Guild of America (WGA) strikes.
