In Andor Season 2, Episode 8, the origin of
Rogue One
: A Star Wars Story's iconic line - "Rebellions are built on hope" - is revealed through a conversation between Cassian Andor and a Ghorman hotel worker named Thela. The scene is set against the backdrop of the

The line, initially spoken by Thela to Cassian, becomes a rallying cry for the Rebellion. The same is later echoed by Cassian himself and Jyn Erso, encapsulating the spirit of hope amidst the oppressive Galactic Empire. This origin adds layers to Cassian's character and underscores the grassroots nature of the Rebellion, highlighting the sacrifices and the unwavering belief in a better future that fuels the fight for freedom.
The prequel series Andor explores the infectious spread of ideas as the Rebellion takes shape. Cassian Andor, played by Diego Luna, is central to this evolution.
Many Star Wars fans believed Cassian adopted the phrase from a mentor, and Andor Season 2 confirms this in a way.
Andor Season 2 focuses on the decline of the planet Ghorman with the Empire using propaganda to degrade the planet's reputation.

The Ghorman Front, a rising rebel cell, grows increasingly defiant. Episode 8 shows Imperial forces staging a massacre disguised as a Ghorman insurrection.
Cassian returns to Ghorman to assassinate ISB supervisor Dedra Meero. Luthen Rael and Wilmon Paak have tried to involve Cassian in the Ghorman struggle. Cassian supports the Ghorman's efforts to restore their freedom. He tells this to Thela, a Ghorman local and hotel worker.
Cassian checks into the same hotel under a different alias as the Empire has increased security in the Ghorman capital.
Thela promises to keep Cassian's cover as long as possible. Cassian wishes him good luck.
'I hope things work out for you,' he tells Thela.
Thela responds with a familiar phrase. 'Rebellions are built on hope.'
Andor season 2 just showed the origins of one of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story's best and most inspirational lines. Andor season 2, episodes 7, 8, and 9 finally showed the Ghorman Massacre and its fallout on Rebel Alliance leaders like Mon Mothma.
With only three episodes left in Andor season 2, audiences can start expecting to see more direct connections to Rogue One. The episodes focusing on the Ghorman Massacre also gave more connections to the film, especially with the reprogramming of K-2SO.

Remember Cassie in a wedding dress? Sydney Sweeney finally reacts to that Euphoria Season 3 viral set photo
Euphoria fans, buckle up. Sydney Sweeney has officially entered the chat about that viral image from the Euphoria Season 3 set — you know, the one where Cassie appears to be walking straight into a chaotic wedding storyline? The internet went full FBI when the photo leaked, and now, Sweeney is playing coy but clearly loving the attention. That viral wedding dress pic? Yeah, she saw it During her appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the Echo Valley star was shown the infamous photo of herself in a wedding dress, looking like a blushing (or breakdown-prone) bride. Fallon wasted no time, asking if Cassie was getting hitched this season. Sweeney, clearly prepped for the interrogation, dodged like a pro: 'Um, I cannot confirm or deny.' Classic. Then she served up a zinger, joking that the photo 'could be AI,' prompting Fallon to laugh and shut it down with a firm, 'No, it cannot.' Cassie in Euphoria season 3? More unhinged than ever What Sweeney did spill is that Cassie is not calming down anytime soon. In fact, she is levelling up her chaos. Sweeney confessed that Cassie is 'even worse' this season, which, if you recall her emotional spiral in Season 2, should have everyone shaking. This is not just unhinged, this is unhinged with glitter eyeliner and possibly a veil. 🚨 'EUPHORIA' Season 3 LEAK: Sydney Sweeney in a wedding dress filming 'EUPHORIA' Season 3 with Alanna Ubach 👀#EUPHORIA #EuphoriaSeason3 She previously told Empire magazine that she loves how flawed Cassie is, describing her as someone who messes up constantly but always from a place of messy, tragic love. Working with showrunner Sam Levinson, Sweeney revealed she often calls him with ideas to make things even wilder, and he is all for it. 🚨 | Sydney Sweeney filming the third season of Euphoria in a wedding dress. Season 3 still MIA, but expectations are sky high With filming reportedly starting in January 2025, fans are crossing their glittered fingers for a 2026 release. That would mark four years since the last season aired, and yes, the anticipation is feral. Wedding or not, Cassie is back, and Sydney Sweeney is promising maximum drama. Let the chaos reign.

Sydney Sweeney calls herself ‘really vicious', says it's ‘kind of psychotic' how she jumps in character: ‘I feel bad for my co-stars'
Sydney Sweeney's not spilling Euphoria season 3 secrets just yet. Showing up on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon, the actor opened up about her new Apple TV+ thriller Echo Valley, which also stars Julianne Moore. Sweeney talked about how she can snap in and out of character and described it as 'psychotic.' But Fallon wasn't letting her leave without dropping the question that's been blowing up the internet: does Cassie get married in Euphoria season 3? The upcoming season, starring Zendaya, Jacob Elordi, and a lineup fans have been dying to see again, is easily one of Sweeney's most hyped projects. 'Cassie is crazy,' she said with a grin, brushing off the noise. Also read: Sydney Sweeney releases soap infused with her own bathwater, fans react: 'Thanks, I'll take 100' In the newly released Apple TV+ show, Sydney plays the troubled daughter Claire. Julianne Moore stars as her mother. The story revolves around the life of a mother-daughter duo who go to extreme lengths to protect each other after the daughter shows up on the doorstep, soaked in blood. Sydney told Fallon that shooting emotional, violent scenes with Moore was intense. 'I, like, jump in and out,' Sydney said when Jimmy asked how she prepared for the role. 'It's kind of psychotic,' she added. 'Like, you're happy and fun, and then…' Jimmy cut in, and Sydney finished the line, 'And then they say, 'Action!' and I'm screaming and crying. And then they call, 'Cut!' and I go, 'What's wrong?'' Sydney said she really respects Moore and admires her acting, but realised later just how she may have hurt her verbally during a scene where the two had to argue. 'She's so kind and fun, and just amazing to work with,' Sydney said. 'I felt so bad,' she added. 'I did. 'Cause I am. I'm vicious. I'm really vicious.' Also read: MrBeast's viral reaction to fans begging for Sydney Sweeney's bathwater soap: 'Stop asking…' While chatting, Jimmy pulled out a leaked photo of Sydney on set, dressed in a wedding gown. The blurry pic has been the talk of the town ever since it leaked from the set. Does Cassie get married? To Nate (played by Jacob Elordi)? Is that even real? Jimmy straight-up asked her. Sydney downplayed it, 'I can't confirm or deny.' With a smirk, she added, 'Who knows, that could be AI.' Jimmy laughed it off, 'No, it can't.' Though she did say that she might spill the tea 'next time' she's on the show. What we do get, though, is that Cassie's character is going to be messier and a lot crazier. 'It's the favourite version of her. She's even worse, she's even worse,' Sydney told Jimmy. In another interview with Empire, the Madame Web star revealed that Euphoria Season 3 is completely 'unhinged,' and that she pushed for it. 'I have such a spot in my heart for Cassie, and I hold her really close and dear. She is crazy. She makes so many mistakes. She's flawed on so many levels, but she does it all from a place of love. It could be a sad version of love, as well.' She revealed she personally went to director Sam Levinson and said: 'Let's go crazier. He was all in.' On the personal front, Sydney reportedly ended her engagement with Jonathan Davino. They got engaged in 2022, but called it off earlier this year.
