The first full trailer for Andor, the prequel series to Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, has arrived. The series, starring Diego Luna as the rebel spy he portrayed in the film, will debut its first three episodes September 21 on Disney+ and, based on what we’ve seen so far, it’s going to be one of the most action-packed Star Wars shows yet.
From laser fights to space battles, and plenty of espionage in between, thus far Andor is standing out from the rest of the pack when it comes to Star Wars shows. Perhaps that is what makes this franchise well-suited for TV. The various shows, though set in the same universe, can have different tones and different things to accomplish. This isn’t a western about a Mandalorian protecting a tiny green baby or the iconic battle between a retired Jedi Knight and his former apprentice-turned-intergalactic overlord. This is a story about a spy who worms his way into the Empire in an attempt to dismantle it from the inside.
Of course, given that this is a Star Wars show, the trailer is also packed with Easter eggs, references, and nods to a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. In fact, it’s entirely possible you missed certain things or didn’t even notice they were referencing moments and locations from the larger Star Wars universe.
Thankfully, that’s why we’re here. We’ve broken it all down for you, so take a look below. Then sound off in the comments with whatever we missed!
