Diego Luna is Ready to Say Goodbye to "Andor" after 2 Seasons

"Andor" star Diego Luna is ready to close Cassian Andor's chapter ahead of the forthcoming second and final season of the Disney+ series — but for the time being, he'll still be enjoying the ride across the galaxy far, far away.

Luna first starred as the Resistance agent in 2016's Rogue One: A Star Wars Story opposite Felicity Jones. He decided to return to the Disney+ prequel series because he felt there was more to the story.




"It is just a two-season show, which is really important for my mental health," Luna told Variety ahead of receiving the magazine's inaugural Virtuoso Award at the Miami Film Festival. "But knowing this is the end, I want to enjoy it and get the best out of this experience."

"What this character does in Rogue One is quite remarkable, and what we are building shows what needs to happen in someone's life to be willing to sacrifice everything," he said. "For me, this has always been a story where the people bringing change, the ones you can call heroes, are just regular people doing extraordinary things."




When Luna received the Virtuoso Award on Saturday, he told the crowd that gearing up for the final season has been "bittersweet."

"It was really nice to approach a series knowing there's an ending. It doesn't happen!" Luna said. "The new conversation on set with streaming is people talking about the possible future. Like, 'Well, there might be a second season or a third season.' This thing of leaving everything open I think is bringing anxiety to actors that needs to be treated. We're all thinking about something that we can't know."

It’s a bittersweet farewell for Diego Luna. As the Star Wars actor walked the red carpet for tonight’s second season premiere event for Lucasfilm/Disney+‘s "Andor", held at Hollywood’s El Capitan Theatre, he bid adieu to the character he originated in 2016’s Rogue One.

“I said goodbye to this character when we wrapped,” he told Deadline. “I had a beautiful opportunity to talk to the crew, to talk to the cast. [Creator] Tony Gilroy gave these beautiful words, we had a drink, we hugged, we cried. I’m going to miss this family.”



Luna said he will cherish the show he and the team “delivered and that will stay there forever, but it’s the dynamic, it’s my every day life — what I have to say goodbye to. It’s tough, I went through, really, a lovely and challenging journey with these people and it transformed me somehow.”

Concluding, “It’s sad, it’s painful, but also I know how lucky I am that I had this opportunity. Many go through the journey of acting without living something like this, you know? I didn’t know it was going to happen to me, it’s been 10 years of my life, so I’m proud and honored to be part of this family.”
