Watch our interviews with the "Andor" Season 2 cast!

In a recent interview with Variety , Andor showrunner Tony Gilroy revealed that the Star Wars series’ acclaimed first episode wasn’t always as great as it ended up being. In fact, it was so boring during its first cut that Gilroy had one immediate reaction: “What the f*ck is this?

"It's not lost on me that Tony Gilroy has literally written me into Star Wars history," says the star, who formed a close bond with Stellan Skarsgård during production.

"My son is a big Star Wars fan and often busts my balls about how little I know," Gilroy quips. Andor gives an origin story to one of the most memorable lines of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. This wasn't originally in the script because Tony Gilroy thought the line had originated somewhere else in canon.
