Diego Luna Cast in K-2SO’s Return to Andor Season 2

As fun as it is Andor The first season was missing one big thing. Here are some pointers. He is black, iron, has a great rage, and finally gives his life for rebellion. We’re talking about K-2SO, Cassian’s droid best friend who appears Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. K-2 didn’t appear in the first season, but he will be back in the second season, and star Diego Luna is very happy about it.

Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Luna talked about what it was like to reunite with not only K-2, but her singer Alan Tudyk. “It was fun working with Alan and being on the same set with him,” said Luna. “It just helps to complete the full circle.” The actor thinks the addition of the droid will help regroup Rogue One to the fans. “You will see why K-2 is so important Rogue One,” added Luna, “And how did he become such an important character to the Rebels.”

Previously, Luna has teased that the events of Andor The second season will change the perception of viewers with Rogue One and, in this interview, he says the same. But the specifications do not relate to the K2 which is very interesting. “I think people are watching Rogue Oneafter watching the second season, we will see a different movie,” said Luna. “Everything will be clarified in a different way to know what had to happen for K-2 to exist. It will make you witness the journey of Rogue One in a different way, I think. And not just with K-2, but with many other characters. I think it will be great.”

For another Andor News, Luna was also part of the video released by the officer star Wars social media accounts. In it, he teases the second season and explains what fans already know: that it will cover four years of Cassian’s life, divided into four three-episode chapters. The latter will then lead directly to the events of Rogue One and, Luna hopes, fans will be able to check them back to back. “I’m sure someone from Lucasfilm and Disney will give us a chance to watch the second season and then we’ll go straight to the big screen with tons of popcorn and friends,” he said.

With The Acolyte i just finished, next star Wars is something Skeleton Crew, starting on December 3. That will then continue into January which may be lines Andor second season maybe March 2025? That’s just an educated guess. Either way, it’s going to be a great event.
