Summary
Andor, a standout in the Star Wars franchise, faced significant funding challenges for its second season, as revealed by creator Tony Gilroy at the ATX Television Festival. Despite the success of Season 1, Gilroy had to advocate for a budget due to Disney’s internal belief that “streaming is dead,” impacting their financial support for the series. Nevertheless, Andor remains the most critically acclaimed live-action Star Wars project to date, with future projects including a The Mandalorian film and new series in development.
