Greetings from the Disney’s 2022 D23 Expo! I attended Marvel and Lucasfilm’s Studio Showcase, where the studios showed off their upcoming films and streaming series. Here are the highlights!

Star Wars news

Lucasfilm’s portion of the event opened with a panel on Andor, the new Star Wars Disney Plus spy thriller that tells the story of the events leading up to the movie Rogue One. Cast members shared some info about what their characters would be going through in the new series, with the most interesting tidbit coming from Genevieve O’Reilly, who will be playing Mon Mothma. According to O’Reilly, Mothma has been seen as a pillar in the previous films she’s been in, but in Andor, the audience will “get to meet and explore her as a woman, trying to navigate the dark shadows of Imperial politics while trying to lead a rebellion.”
