Exclusive: Andor writer Beau Willimon shared a core tenet of the series, building to the Rebels from StarWars: 'Sacrifice is at the core of the show. And we ask that question of every character, even the people that are working for the ISB.' 💫
Andor writer Beau Willimon breaks down how the series is centered around sacrifice by following the characters at the heart of The Rebellion's early days. Sacrifice has always been a core element of Star Wars, with characters constantly putting their own needs second to those of the greater cause. Andor leans into this even more heavily because it shows the cost not only in obvious losses like death but also in the other things people lose in war, including their innocence.
"[Sacrifice] is at the heart of this show. It's something we've talked about from the beginning. If the story is, "How does a guy go from being a selfish ne'er-do-well that just is out for himself to becoming a guy that's willing to give his life for The Rebellion?" That's a story of, "How do you become a person that is willing to make the ultimate sacrifice?" Sacrifice is at the core of the show.
