The Thousand Faces of Cassian Andor

Almost three years after the massive success of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story in 2016, and several failed iterations of a Rogue One spinoff series about the characters of Cassian Andor and K-2SO, Hollywood script doctor Tony Gilroy had finally decided to write his friend Kathleen Kennedy, the president of Lucasfilm, a long-overdue letter; one that took the experiment that he, Gareth Edwards, and the cast and crew of Rogue One had started years ago to the next level. A radical pitch that framed the Star Wars Galaxy as the backdrop for a story about a revolutionary in-the-making, set upon a collision-course with history, destiny, and the unrelenting forces of Imperal oppression.
