One of the things that makes the Star Wars galaxy so appealing is the alien creatures that populate it. While humans are still front and center of the stories most of the time, you don’t have to wait long to see them surrounded by these colorful extraterrestrials, from Chewbacca to Yoda. And yet when it comes to Andor, which premiered its second season, there are significantly fewer aliens to spot. It’s something that Tony Gilroy, who created the Disney+ subscription-exclusive series, is well aware of, but he opened up about these smaller numbers while speaking with CinemaBlend.
Gilroy addressed this topic with our own Jeff McCobb while he was seated next to Mon Mothma actress Genevieve O’Reilly, who discussed her character’s drunken dance sequence in “Harvest.” When Jeff asked Gilroy if he noticed that Andor doesn’t include as many aliens compared to other Star Wars projects, the showrunner answered.
