The Serie Andor, of Disney+has aroused considerable expectation in the fans of starwars. In particular, for coming from one of the biggest hits among the recent productions of the franchise. rogue oneby Gareth Edwards, became a story that took the perception of the Rebel Alliance to a much more adult and moving layer. In particular, when the notion of the heroism of the story fell on characters completely unknown to the followers of the saga.
However, its brilliant script managed to turn its premise into a celebration of the core elements of the intergalactic franchise. The story of the rebel group of rogue one, who undertake a suicide mission to support an ideal, impressed. But she also showed that starwars could provide space for a new type of story, emphasizing more adult narrative threads. Something that Andor takes as its main premise and takes it to a whole new level.
Perhaps that is why the inevitable question is whether any of the beloved characters of rogue one could be part of the series. Whether in a cameo or in a surprise appearance, the possibility involves weaving together the story of Andor with a larger universe. A risky but valid experiment that could give the production a much more complete and solid dimension.
Which figures from the original story are part of Andor? At least two are confirmed. Two others could be the big surprise in a series that will undoubtedly try to reformulate the idea of the world of starwars from its foundations.
confirmed characters for Andor
Mon Mothma
Senator Mon Mothma, played by Genevieve O’Reilly, is one of the central figures in the series Andor. The official, who faced the Empire before and after the fall of the Republic, was also an essential part of rogue one. In the series, retakes his role, but from a story chronologically prior to his active participation among the rebel cells.
The character will be the link between the repressive mechanism of power and the shadow fight of the opposition to the Empire. That makes her an exceptional witness to the early years of the battle against the Emperor’s totalitarianism. She at once, she in a tragic figure that she must go through all kinds of personal risks to avoid, one way or another, being discovered.
The return of the senator ensures a complicated journey through the darkest places of the Empire as a political structure. A new step in the saga starwars that could deepen the different appearances of the character in return of the jedi Y Revenge of the Sith.

Two close possibilities of rogue one
Galen Erso
Five years before the events of rogue oneGalen Erso was already working on the plans for the Death Star. Which opens up the possibility that, in one way or another, it will appear in Andor. The character, played by Mads Mikkelson, allows us to analyze the repressive machinery of the Empire. A capable of kidnapping and forcing figures of interest into their ranks for your projects.
in the history of rogue one, Galen is well known enough that Senator Mon Mothma deems his safety necessary. There is also the possibility that the first rumors about the construction of a war superstructure are part of Andor.
The series, which will try to recover the first years of the Rebellion, will probably narrate the key points of future attacks. Which could include, no doubt, Galen and, perhaps, his team.
Orson Krennic
The main antagonist of rogue one, played by Ben Mendelsohn, is a character of considerable interest in the film. could well be in Andor, in whose chronology it is present. By the time the action of the series is taking place, Krennic is supervising the work of Galen Erso.
It could also be part of the world in which Senator Mon Mothma moves. The official will have to deal with the Empire’s bureaucracy and, especially, with the influence of figures like Krennic. It would be an intriguing perception about how the threads of power that relate the Senate to the Imperial military structure move.
Of course, the appearance of the character also implies a suggestive idea. Could Krennic be the first person to hint to Mon Mothma about building the Death Star? Perhaps, a brief mention could be the trigger for the entire exciting narrative that includes both Andor like rogue one.
