‘Andor’ Creator Tony Gilroy on the Series Finale, Cassian’s [SPOILER], the Show’s ‘Controversial’ Set and His Next Film With Oscar Isaac
"Andor" creator Tony Gilroy explains the series finale, including his thinking behind the final image, his future with "Star Wars," and his film with Oscar Isaac.
In that film, Cassian learns about a high-ranking Imperial officer, Galen Erso (Mads Mikkelsen), leaking a message to his daughter, Jyn (Felicity Jones), about the existence of a top secret super-weapon, aka the Death Star. Throughout the episode, director Alonso Ruizpalacios and writer Tom Bissell weave in flashbacks that establish how Luthen first came upon Kleya as a young child and took her in as a kind of adopted daughter, and then how they helped each other build up the insurrection against the Empire. That rescue concludes in the finale, “Jedha, Kyber, Erso,” after which Cassian delivers Kleya’s intelligence about the Death Star to a highly skeptical Alliance Council, headed by Bail Organa (Benjamin Bratt) and Mon Mothma (Genevieve O’Reilly).
