Ahead of the three-episode premiere of 'Andor,' enthusiasts are curious to know if Andor is a planet. So, is it? Here's the entirety we know.

On Sept. 21, prepare yourselves to witness the beginning of the insurrection with Andor.

The extremely expected Disney Plus original series, which is slated for a beneficiant three-episode premiere, takes position five years earlier than the occasions of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and "follows an ensemble cast of characters during the time that a Rebel Alliance is forming in opposition to the Galactic Empire," according to the official synopsis.

As anticipated, a few informal Star Wars enthusiasts are a little unsure about the display. Not best do they want the franchise would branch out and introduce new stories, however many are confused about what Andor actually is — is it a personality? Or possibly an unknown creature wandering the galaxy? Better but, is Andor a planet? Keep reading to determine.

Is Andor a planet?

Let's get something immediately: Andor is no longer a planet but slightly a fictional character inside the Star Wars franchise.

Nevertheless, there is a planet with identical spelling — Endor, referred to as Tana by means of the Ewok species. According to the Star Wars Wiki, Endor was once "the cyan gas giant planet orbited by the forest moon of Endor." The planet Endor was once a lot less recognized than the wooded area moon Endor, which was the native house of the Ewoks.

Anyways, let's get again to Andor: Since it isn't a planet, where does the display take place? A few pivotal locations inside the upcoming collection come with:

• Coruscant — the political hub offered in Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace
• Jedha — the planet the place Saw Gerrera is based in Rogue One
• Fest — the titular persona's house planer
• Aldhani — a brand-new planet that serves as the atmosphere for a very powerful challenge the titular personality undertakes.

Let's no longer confuse Andor with the Andorian homeworld from 'Star Trek.'

Now, we perceive why you might think the Andorian homeworld is part of Andor — the inhabited moon is referred to as both Andoria or Andor, which might are compatible completely with the upcoming secret agent thriller. However, we will have to tell you that this is merely a accident because the Andorian homeworld is actually a part of Star Trek, now not Star Wars.

'Andor' is named after the 'Rogue One' persona Cassian Jeron Andor.

At last, we are right here to speak about the inspiration in the back of the display's name, Andor.

Enter Cassian Jeron Andor (Diego Luna), a thief-turned-Rebel secret agent whom we first met in Rogue One. In June 2022, writer Tony Gilroy spoke with Vanity Fair and defined the place Cassian stands at the start of the derivative series, revealing that the tale begins with the destruction of his local planet, Fest.

"His adopted home will become the base of our whole first season, and we watch that place become radicalized," Tony advised the outlet. "Then we see another planet that’s completely taken apart in a colonial kind of way. The Empire is expanding rapidly. They’re wiping out anybody who’s in their way."

As for Cassian himself, Tony to start with described him as "really revolution-averse, and cynical, and lost, and kind of a mess." However, via the finish of the season, Cassian will turn into a modern and eventually join the Rebellion.

New episodes of Andor premiere Wednesdays on Disney Plus.
