Don’t expect Andor to show the two evil heads of the Honchos Empire

The last season of Andor will lead directly to Rogue one., And that was there people to talk about Possibilities Tie them together. If you hoped to see either Darth Vader or Palpatine in this show, you should look elsewhere.

In a recent Rolling stone Interview, Creator Tony Gilroy was asked why neither of the two villains appeared on the show. The stories placed during the original trilogy usually include them: vader Known in Rogue One-Which Gilroy is a co-author-Shiev has television appearances in Obi-Wan, Batch., and Star Wars rebelsS The reason Gilroy does not include the two is that in the end they do not belong to history: he described Vader as “really limiting, he won’t say much.” (This and he removed Vader from his system back Rogue one With the scene on the corridor of Slasher -esque.) This is more or less the same answer with Shiev, which he called “too big a piece of meat to be introduced. I was thinking about it at one point, but it was too heavy an elevator.”

Although neither appears, the presence of palpine is felt in Andor Every time the characters mention it in a conversation. (Krennic, returning imperial lumps from Rogue One, He even annoys his plans to build what the star of death in the premiere will eventually be. “Nobody knows about the Jedi or the sites” is something Lucasfilm told him, and after he heard it, it blew up his mind. “It’s not in culture, there is only a small percentage of people who have an idea of ​​it at all,” he said. “It’s very secret and small.”

The retention of Vader and Shiev on the sidelines can eventually be the best: the Jedi and Sitans can sometimes suck all the air from the room. With the missing these fractions is allowed Andor shines some interesting lights for what Rebels and Imperials They are until they are on and outside the clock, which may be more worth digging nowadays.
