Confirming our own report here on the site from earlier in the year, production appears to be progressing on Andor in the Buckinghamshire village of Little Marlow, something the Daily Mail, Virgin Radio and Chris Evans have picked up on.
“We think someone is making a major motion picture around the corner of our house but we’re not quite sure. ‘There seems to be a temporary location and there’s all these illumines signs. ‘They’re usually film location crew signs, that is what they usually are and they are very good at taking them away, by the way. I think someone is making a major motion picture on the banks of the River Thames. There is a massive crane, there are two actually, we saw a camera on the top of the crane – it’s half a mile back but looks so much closer because there is so much going on.
On Thursday we saw two cranes, massive cherry pickers – huge things, and they were a good couple hundred metres apart and they were holding up a massive green screen. It’s a huge thing that’s going on there. There are these huge temporary marquees, they aren’t the one you see at like a country fair. I think they must make them for movies or maybe it’s a Covid thing. Maybe they’ve made massive marquees purely so you can make movies outdoors and be more easily Covid compliant.’
‘Guess what they’re filming where I live, the new Star Wars TV show. They’re doing a mega-series, it’s the Star Wars TV show, it’s amazing. It’s very cool, it is opposite the garden centre that we go to! I’m really excited.’
Star Wars new Disney+ series Andor – which focuses on Alliance Intelligence officer Captain Cassian Andor – has been taking place in the leafy Buckinghamshire village of Little Marlow.
New images of the set taken on Wednesday show Empire Stormtroopers lining the streets as a meeting takes place in the centre of the makeshift village, which has been erected in an unused quarry in the area.
There appears to be some sort of stand-off taking place at the centre of the set, which is not unlike many of the Star Wars locations used in the past, including for its most recent project, The Mandalorian.
The set is thought to be for Andor, which is slated for release in summer 2022, and has been built alongside the Spade Oak nature reserve – featuring dozens of houses creating a galactic village.
A fan website called Fantha Tracks has also claimed to have seen ‘public records’ which links the location to the Star Wars franchises’ latest project, Andor.
Exploring the galaxy since 1978, Mark wrote his first fan fiction in 1981 and been a presence online since his first webpage Fanta War in 1996. He's contributed to Star Wars Insider (since '06) and Starburst Magazine (since '16) as well as ILM.com, SkywalkerSound.com, StarWars.com, Star Wars Encyclopedia, Build The Millennium Falcon, Geeky Monkey, TV Film Memorabilia, Model and Collectors Mart, Star Trek magazine and StarTrek.com. He is a four-time Star Wars Celebration Stage host, the only podcaster to have appeared on every Celebration podcast stage since the stage began in 2015, the Daily Content Manager of Fantha Tracks and the co-host of Making Tracks, Canon Fodder and Start Your Engines on Fantha Tracks Radio.
