There's a lot of excitement surrounding Andor, though many fans are confused about the show's structure. It's previously been revealed that the first twelve episodes explore a year in Cassian Andor's life, with season 2 devoting three episodes per year to the Rebel. 

Not too long ago, there were also rumours that Lucasfilm originally had plans for the Rogue One: A Star Wars Story prequel to play out over five seasons before dialling it back to two. If so, that would explain the truncated exploration of Cassian's journey following "Year One," but showrunner Tony Gilroy has now better explained the reasoning behind Andor's unusual structure.

"We realized, ‘Oh my God, we have four years, and we have four blocks, and I went home, and I came back and [came up with], 'You know what, why don’t we jump a year?" he tells The Playlist. "And what’s really cool, when we come back for part two, we’re going to jump a year, and we’re going to come back. It’s a year later, and all this shit’s happened."

"We’re going to come back for a Friday, Saturday, and a Sunday, and then we’re going to jump a year. Then we’re going to do like five, six, seven days and jump a year, and then we’re going to do two weeks and jump a year," he continues. "And the final block that we come back to is going to be the last five days before ‘Rogue One.’"

Gilroy would go on to reveal spoil the final scene of season 2 saying, "Yeah, I mean, our final scene of the show is no secret; it’s going to be [Cassian] walking across the tarmac to get in the ship to go to the Rings of Kafrene to go meet, Daniel Mays’ [Tivik informant character that Cassian kills in ‘Rogue One,’ because he’s become a liability], he’s going there."

"I mean, you watch people watch History Channel shows and whatever," he added, explaining why he doesn't view that as a spoiler. "What’s that story? Well, you know how it’s going to turn out. And it’s still, ‘why did it happen?’"

A new Andor clip and a massive gallery of stills have also been released (via SFFGazette.com). You can check them out below:

They should probably put a timeline in their episodes at the beginning in order to not let their viewers get so confused.

Off-topic: Dan Lin is in talks to take over as DC Chief.

"The role encompasses not just overseeing film but television as well, with Lin reporting directly to Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav, according to sources."

@NinnesMBC - "A Warners insider says that no negotiations are taking place and no official offer has been made although other sources say the talks are discussing salary, reporting structure, and the future of Lin’s expansive production company, Rideback."

Wait, so you're telling me Star Wars works better when the arcs are planned before filming begins?

I'm calling it now. This is a misdirection. They have something else planned.

Rogue One is my second favorite Star Wars movie of all, yet I have no real interest in this. I'll give it a chance and hopefully be pleasantly surprised.

SPOILERS: They form a group called Rogue One and steal the Death Star plans.

His History Channel comparison is a pretty good one. Same goes with House of the Dragon for me. I already know how the book ends, yet I still watch the show.

As for this show specifically, I think that's a pretty good way to end it. Think even knowing where it ends makes me more invested in this as well.

"What’s that story? Well, you know how it’s going to turn out. And it’s still, ‘why did it happen?’"

Because Palpatine manipulated the universe and took absolute control and formed the Galactic Empire and then a bunch of people that didn't like that formed a rebel group and then made alliances with other star systems and formed the Rebel Alliance, That's why, so now can we get to the interesting stuff?!
