Charles EstherThe wait is nearly over for Andor fans.
The critically acclaimed, Emmy-nominated Star Wars series returns for its second and final season this April, and it’s bringing the fire.
With a three-episode premiere kicking things off, viewers in the US, UK, and Australia can finally mark their calendars to follow Cassian Andor’s last journey before the events of Rogue One.
When will Andor Season 2 premiere on Disney+ in the US?
US fans can stream the first three episodes of Andor Season 2 starting Tuesday, April 22 at 6pm PT / 9pm ET.
That’s right — it’s a triple-episode premiere, launching what showrunner Tony Gilroy describes as a season built in four distinct arcs, each covering a different year in the lead-up to Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
Expect thrilling time jumps, high-stakes espionage, and emotional weight throughout the season.

Why Season 2 matters more than ever
Andor’s first season set a new standard for Star Wars storytelling with its grounded political drama, gritty visuals, and mature themes.
Season 2 promises to elevate that legacy, building a direct bridge into the Rogue One timeline and deepening the emotional arcs of characters like Cassian, Bix, Dedra, Syril, and Mon Mothma.
Expect new characters, returning villains, and the long-awaited arrival of K-2SO.
Even Director Orson Krennic and the construction of the Death Star might come into play, based on teaser trailer hints.
Don’t miss it — this is Star Wars like you’ve never seen it
Whether you’re a hardcore fan or just discovering Andor, this is a series worth watching week to week.
It’s the rebellion’s final stand — and it’s all building toward the explosive beginning of Rogue One.
