We’re into the final season of The Bad Batch, just months away from the start of The Acolyte and the beginning of filming on The Mandalorian & Grogu but the final season of Andor won’t arrive until 2025, but that hasn’t stopped Luthen Rael himself Stellan Skarsgård from explaining how optimistic he is for the second season.

“It’s the last season of it. It ends where Rogue One starts so it’s up to that point. I think it will be very good as already the first one was satisfying for me because it’s sort of Star Wars for grown-ups – it’s a more realistic and complicated society that they’re living in and the claustrophobia of the fascist regime is palpable. I think we have a good season ahead of us.”
