ANDOR's Upcoming First Season Will Include ROGUE ONE And SOLO's Death Troopers And Mudtroopers

Andor takes place during the same era as Rogue One and Solo, and a new report suggests the upcoming Disney+ series will include a couple of familiar classes of Stormtrooper. Read on for further details...

Star Wars Celebration is nearly here, and we're anticipating seeing more from Lucasfilm's Disney+ TV shows at the event. Andor, for example, is bound to get a trailer, and with rumours suggesting the series will consist of at least a few seasons, all signs point to this show being a big part of the studio's plans on the streaming service over the next few years as they expand on this pre-A New Hope era.

Now, Bespin Bulletin (via SFFGazette.com) reports that Andor will make use of certain classes of Stormtroopers we've already met in other stories told during that period. It's said that Death troopers will factor into the series after first being introduced in 2016's Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, though the site does caution that this doesn't necessarily mean we'll see Ben Mendelsohn return as Krennic.

The Death troopers have been spotted on set alongside Imperial officers, so we have to believe they're there to protect other members of the Empire's Imperial Security Bureau. 

Interestingly, Andor will also put the spotlight on Solo: A Star Wars Story's Mudtroopers. We saw them briefly when Han Solo was forced to enlist as a soldier for the Empire, and their presence in this series suggests the show will take us to another battlefield setting as the war in this Galaxy rages on. 

Lucasfilm has devoted a lot of time to filling in the gaps between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope, with Obi-Wan Kenobi set to take place right between them. While some fans have wondered why we need to spend more time with Cassian Andor after meeting him in Rogue One, we expect the show to reveal more about the formation of the Rebellion and the beginning of the end for the Empire.

Andor is currently expected to premiere on Disney+ sometime in 2022.

@supermanrex - yeah same. As cool as some of the troopers in Rogue One and Solo were, they really served no purpose outside of selling toys

@bkmeijer1 - i love how clone wars cherry picked clone troopers and gave us some really cool bad ass troopers who made multiple appearances. i think we should get the same with storm troopers and such. they almost did with FN-2199 in force awakens. a bad ass amongst the cannon fodder. i feel captain phasma could have been so much more as well. it would be sweet to meet the red baron of the tie pilots as well. you only see the badass troopers and pilots in the novels and comics unfortunately.

@supermanrex - Resistance kinda did it two with a few First Order stormtroopers.

But yeah, would be fun if one of the villains in Andor is just a named regular old Stormtrooper dude. The man in the field for some Imperial officer.

Because Toys.

Especially Hot Toys will make at least 50 different Trooper designs, that were in the movie for two seconds.
