Andor Season 2 Final Trailer

We are less than a month away from the final season of Andor, and a new trailer has dropped. For the record, Andor was NOT cancelled. I’ve noticed people saying this on various social platforms, and it’s simply not true. Andor was only supposed to be two seasons per Tony Gilroy before the first season even aired. Be that as it may, here is the Andor Season 2 Final Trailer.

The first thing we notice is the music. While the first trailer featured “The Revolution Starts Now” by Steve Earle, this one features series composer Nicholas Britell‘s music. This trailer builds the intensity and drama of the season. We all know this leads up to the events of Rogue One and Cassian’s ultimate fate.

Andor Season 2 Trailer

With less than 60 days before the premiere I knew we were due for a trailer soon. It’s finally here! The Andor Season 2 trailer!! Let’s take a look (maybe a few times).

There isn’t much to break down in this trailer but it looks pretty intense. It appears this season will have a unique release schedule. Instead of the typical one episode a week, it will be 3 episodes a week over four weeks. Every three episodes will jump ahead one year leading up to the beginning of Rogue One. The first three episodes will take place one year after Season 1.

Having Ben Mendelsohn back as Director Krennic is very exciting. It’s going to add a new level of drama to this series. I wonder if we will see Grand Moff Tarkin in one of these episodes. He is responsible for the Ghorman Massacre which led to Mon Mothma’s resignation from the Senate.

All right, time to go watch it again!

Skeleton Crew – Episode 8

Skeleton Crew - Episode 8

Title: The Real Good Guys
Directed by: Jon Watts
Runtime: 38 minutes

This is the final episode. I think I read somewhere that this will be a limited series, so I’m not expecting a season two. While they wrap up the story, a few things are left open to be picked up later—perhaps by a certain upcoming movie.

For the finale, we see many things from the previous episodes come back into play. Neel uses the heavy cannon to attack the pirate ship, Wim gets another shot at a lightsaber, and Kh’ymm sends in the cavalry. This episode wraps everything up nicely but leaves a few things open to incorporate into future projects.

Skeleton Crew – Episode 7

Onyx Cinder approaching At Attin

Title: We’re Gonne Be In So Much Trouble
Directed by: Lee Isaac Chung
Runtime: 33 minutes

This post will contain spoilers, so I hope you’ve been watching. This is your only warning.

Jod is the villain. I don’t think we will see a redemption arc for his character. He pulled an “Anakin Skywalker” and held a blue lightsaber in front of a bunch of kids with the threat to murder them. Greed has corrupted him and turned him to the dark side. My guess is that he will be thwarted and imprisoned on At Attin.

Perhaps his redemption story will be in the Mandalorian & Grogu movie.

Skeleton Crew – Episode 6

Skeleton Crew - Episode 6 - KB smiling

Title: Zero Friends Again
Directed by: Bryce Dallas Howard
Runtime: 33 minutes

I’m way behind because the past seven days have been super busy between a family vacation and the end of the year. In this episode, we see the fallout of Jod’s greedy choices, and friendships are tested between the kids. We learn that KB suffered an accident recently enough that she remembers it and her augments are required to keep her alive.

This episode didn’t have much in the way of easter eggs. I’ll cover a few things below but that didn’t detract from the episode’s quality. Bryce Dallas Howard always directs an entertaining show, which is probably why she directs so many episodes across the various series.

Skeleton Crew – Episode 5

Skeleton Crew Episode 5

Title: You Have A Lot to Learn About Pirates
Directed by: Jake Schreier
Runtime: 45 minutes

After learning the identity of SM-33’s previous captain, Jod begins to show his true colors. This episode leans a bit more into the pirate theme and confirms a few things.


Spoilers Ahead!!!
