The Force was strong in London today as Disney+ welcomed press, fans, and stars alike to a breathtaking Sneak Peek event for Andor Season 2. Held at the immersive Lightroom venue in Kings Cross, the event delivered a captivating deep dive into Lucasfilm’s acclaimed series as it prepares to return for its final chapter. With stunning visuals, never-before-seen footage, and surprise appearances from the series’ biggest names, the experience celebrated not only the legacy of Andor but the rise of rebellion itself.

A Star-Studded Affair

The event was attended by the creative and acting powerhouses behind the series. Guests were treated to a recap of Season 1 before being the first to preview scenes from the upcoming second season. A panel discussion followed, featuring:

  • Tony Gilroy, series creator, writer, and executive producer
  • Sanne Wohlenberg, executive producer
  • Kathleen Kennedy, President of Lucasfilm
  • Diego Luna, series star and executive producer

They were joined by cast members Stellan Skarsgård, Genevieve O’Reilly, Denise Gough, Faye Marsay, Ben Mendelsohn, and the show-stealing Adria Arjona, who received perhaps the loudest cheers of the day. Attendees were also met with an in-universe welcome by a squadron of Imperial stormtroopers patrolling the venue.

The Internet’s New Obsession: Adria Arjona

While anticipation for Andor’s return was sky-high, much of the online chatter following the event was devoted to one person: Adria Arjona. The actress, who reprises her role as Bix Caleen, turned heads with a striking green ensemble that instantly set social media ablaze.

Twitter lit up with admiration:

“The most beautiful woman alive actually.”
“And if I said she’s like top 5 finest celebrities, who gonna check me.”
“She looks so good in green.”
“She is one of the most gorgeous people ever.”
“My goodness..”
“What else she in lol.”
“Seen enough, make her Wonder Woman.”
“Latina heat.”

It’s not the first time Arjona has wowed the fandom, but the energy surrounding her today suggests her star is on a meteoric rise, perhaps even beyond the galaxy, far, far away.

A Rebellion in Motion: What to Expect from Season 2

Disney+ also dropped brand-new images from Andor Season 2, teasing the high-stakes drama to come. The final season picks up as the shadow of war looms closer, and Cassian Andor becomes fully entrenched in the Rebellion. With betrayal, sacrifice, and shifting allegiances at every turn, the series promises to delve deeper into the political and moral complexity that has made it a fan favorite.

The season will consist of 12 episodes, structured into four distinct arcs of three episodes each. Each arc represents a year in the countdown to the events of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. The first arc debuts on April 22, 2025, with new arcs rolling out weekly.

Creative Forces Behind the Scenes

The final season continues to be helmed by some of the industry’s top storytellers. Writing duties are divided among:

  • Tony Gilroy (Episodes 1–3)
  • Beau Willimon (Episodes 4–6)
  • Dan Gilroy (Episodes 7–9)
  • Tom Bissell (Episodes 10–12)

The direction is split as follows:

  • Ariel Kleiman (Episodes 1–6)
  • Janus Metz (Episodes 7–9)
  • Alonso Ruizpalacios (Episodes 10–12)

Gilroy, Kennedy, Wohlenberg, Luna, Luke Hull, and John Gilroy return as executive producers, forming the creative core that has given Andor its sharp edge and grounded realism.

The Cast: A Rebellion United

Returning cast members include:

  • Diego Luna as Cassian Andor
  • Stellan Skarsgård as Luthen Rael
  • Genevieve O’Reilly as Mon Mothma
  • Denise Gough as Dedra Meero
  • Adria Arjona as Bix Caleen
  • Alan Tudyk as K-2SO
  • Faye Marsay, Varada Sethu, Elizabeth Dulau
  • Ben Mendelsohn and Forest Whitaker

With this powerhouse lineup, Andor promises an emotionally charged finale that bridges the character-driven intensity of its first season with the larger mythology of the Star Wars universe.

The Countdown Begins

Andor Season 2 is shaping up to be a masterclass in world-building, character evolution, and political drama. As the curtain begins to fall on Cassian Andor’s journey, fans can expect a thrilling, tragic, and deeply human story that connects directly to the franchise’s most pivotal moment.

With stunning sneak peeks, a dazzling red carpet moment from Adria Arjona, and Disney+ ramping up the marketing machine, one thing is clear: The Rebellion has never looked so good.


Season 2 of Andor premieres on April 22, 2025, exclusively on Disney+.

Let the rebellion begin one final time.
