The Disney+ series delves into the life of Cassian Andor (Diego Luna), tracing his transformation from a petty thief to a pivotal figure in the rebellion, as seen in Rogue One.

In his 9/10 review, Clint Gage praises Season 2 for enhancing the elements that made Season 1 successful, enriching the Star Wars prequel era. The series continues to weave personal stories within the broader context of the rebellion, focusing on the unsung heroes.
