About this listen
The Rogue Ones: A Star Wars Andor Podcast returns with another deep-dive into "Andor" Season 2, this time spotlighting the woman at the heart of the rebellion’s political front: Mon Mothma, as portrayed by Genevieve O’Reilly. While the character has long been a stoic fixture in the "Star Wars" galaxy, "Andor" redefines her as something much more profound. She's a woman navigating deep isolation, fractured loyalties, and the exhausting burden of secrecy under Imperial rule.
Created by Tony Gilroy and starring Diego Luna as Cassian Andor, “Andor” is a prequel to “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” (which Gilroy co-wrote and famously helped reshape during reshoots). Set five years before the events of Rogue One, the show focuses on the origins of the Rebellion and how ordinary people — not just Jedi or Chosen Ones — stand up against oppression. Season two picks up a year later in the first three episodes and jumps one year ahead with each block of three afterwards, leading directly to the beginning of “Rogue One” by the end.
