“Narcos: Mexico” star Diego Luna has confirmed that production has already begun on the “Star Wars” spin-off series for Disney+ that is based around his “Rogue One” Cassian Andor character.
The spy thriller series will follow the adventures of rebel spy Andor during the formative years of the Rebellion and prior to the events of the aforementioned movie.
The show will explore tales of espionage and daring missions to restore hope to a galaxy in the grip of a ruthless Empire. Appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Luna says:
“It’s basically everything you have to know to understand Rogue One. The story of the character before. I can spoil the ending I guess. It’s nice to go into a story you already know the ending. Now you can take the nuances and the layers. I think it’s fun to do something that isn’t just about getting to the end. It;s about delaying that.”
Genevieve O’Reilly, Denise Gough, Stellan Skarsgard, Kyle Soller, Adria Arjona and Alan Tudyk co-star. The series will be executive produced by Tony Gilroy.
