Andor stars Diego Luna and Adria Arjona reveal how long they’ve known about the Star Wars show’s bittersweet final scene.
The final scene of Andor season 2 was planned from the very beginning
Two members of the Star Wars show’s cast have known how it would end for years
Its final shot will make fans look at sequel film Rogue One in a new light
Diego Luna and Adria Arjona have revealed how long they’ve known about Andor season 2’s incredibly bittersweet final scene.
Speaking to TechRadar ahead of season 2’s launch in late April, the pair admitted that it’s been a long time since they were first told about the Star Wars series’ last scene.
In fact, it sounds like Luna and Arjona have been aware of its ending since development began on Andor’s first season, so it’s a secret they’ve had to keep for many years. And, as Arjona told me, holding onto that information for so long hasn’t been easy.
Full spoilers immediately follow for Andor season 2 episode 12 and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
The final scene of Andor season 2 – and, with the Disney+ show ending after two seasons, the last one we’ll ever see – reveals that Cassian and Bix, the characters that Luna and Arjona portray, have become parents.
After we watch Cassian and his android bestie K-2SO fly off to meet Galactic Empire informant Tivik on the Ring of Kafrene – a scene that directly leads into the events of 2016’s Rogue One film – we’re reunited with Bix on Mina-Rau. Viewers will remember this Outer Rim world as the place that Bix, Brasso, Wilmon, and B-2EMO fled to after Andor season 1’s finale.
Meanwhile, in season 2 episode 9 we learn that Bix made the heart-breaking decision to leave Cassian so he could focus on helping the burgeoning Rebel Alliance topple the Empire.
