STAR WARS: ANDOR Character Posters Feature Saw Gerrera And Andy Serkis' Kino Loy

Ahead of tomorrow's episode of Andor, Lucasfilm and Disney+ have released two character posters for the series showcasing Forest Whitaker's Saw Gerrera and Five-Two-D Unit Manager Kino Loy (Andy Serkis).

Last Wednesday's episode of Andor delivered more surprises for fans, though an appearance from Andy Serkis was by far the biggest. The Venom: Let There Be Carnage director showed up as Five-Two-D Unit Manager Kino Loy after previously bringing Supreme Leader Snoke to life in the Star Wars sequels. 

Alas, this isn't an origin story for the villain, and it's since been confirmed Loy isn't tied to the fallen First Order leader in any way. After all, it would be a major stretch for the Disney+ series to somehow reveal this prisoner is, in fact, the basis for Emperor Palpatine's eventual Snoke clone (thought to be a failed version of himself the villain controlled through the Force). 

Serkis wasn't the only surprise cameo in Andor, however. Forest Whitaker also returned as his Rogue One: A Star Wars Story character, Saw Gerrera, and both he and Serkis are spotlighted on the posters below which you can check out courtesy of SFFGazette.com.
 


Andor, a spy thriller from Lucasfilm filmed over two 12-episode seasons, takes place five years before the events of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. The era is filled with danger, deception and intrigue where Cassian will embark on the path that is destined to turn him into a rebel hero.

The show presents Star Wars from a different perspective, focusing on everyday people whose lives are affected by the Empire. The decisions they make have real consequences, and the stakes for them - and the Galaxy - couldn’t be higher. 

Diego Luna returns as Cassian Andor and is joined by cast members Genevieve O’Reilly, Stellan Skarsgård, Adria Arjona, Denise Gough, Kyle Soller and Fiona Shaw. The executive producers are Kathleen Kennedy, Tony Gilroy, Sanne Wohlenberg, Diego Luna and Michelle Rejwan. Tony Gilroy is also the creator and showrunner.

The first eight episodes of Andor are now streaming on Disney+, while the ninth arrives this Wednesday, November 2.

@JustBrootal - That's why they're barefeet even with the threat of death. It's either that or wear Yeezys.

I find Saw Gerrera to be such a dope character.

Whitaker is amazing.

@Doomsday8888 - Very interesting character but I really dislike the voice Whitaker went with. Every time he speaks it is annoying. Either way, I love seeing the more gritty characters within the Resistance, and Gerrera is certainly one of them.

@CAPTAINPINKEYE - 100% agree. Better than Mandalorian for sure. Even episode 8, which was the slowest one yet, was interesting and gave us sides to the Star Wars universe we haven't seen before. I really want to see more content like this that isn't featuring major characters from the movies/cartoons.

I'm genuinely interested to see how Andor gets out of jail. I don't think it'll be a breakout. More likely, Syril Karn will someone locate him and that will be his in with the Empire / Meero.

Now how Andor gets away from the Empire is another question, but we've seen plenty of times where the resistance has infiltrated them. Maybe he will get smuggled out under someone's coat...
