The Internet's Best Reactions After the Andor Season 2 Finale
It's been a great run, but like any other series, Andor eventually had to end; and what a spectacular ending it had. The weekly release has been able to give way for great fan reactions every week, and now with the show ending, some fans have a lot to say about saying good-bye to Cassian and everyone else in the series; and while it is sad, that doesn't mean we can't have any fun with it. It's probably worth mentioning that Kleya (Elizabeth Dulau) has come out as one of the MVPs on the show, and the final arc does give a lot of backstory as to her origin with Luthen and their journey to defeat the Empire. Cassian to the Rebel Alliance: — SirSnipeyy | Andorhypeguy (@SirSnipeyy) May 14, 2025 "There is no team. It's only her." Kleya Marki you are THAT GIRL. #AndorSeason2 #Andor — talli (@ttalliiaa) May 14, 2025 And while he is only a guest actor for this season, Ben Mendelsohn has managed to eat up ever scene he has as Imperial director Orson Krennic. #andor spoilers–––––––– i can't even explain half the shit krennic does bro wanted to go to julliard but his parents forced him into the military — lina 🌌 is SO back (@ambessasabs) May 14, 2025 // #andor spoilers•••• Krennic's finger on Dedra's head is taking me OUT this is the divaest a diva has ever divaed — Tali !

(@taliesart) May 14, 2025 Jokes aside, a lot of people have just been gushing about how the series actually harkens back (or foreshadows) Rogue One , and how everyone just felt like revisiting the film after finishing Andor . Tony Gilroy you will pay for this parallel #Andor — Nyrotike (@nyrotike) May 14, 2025 — Maximalist Epic Dude (@Maximalistepic) May 13, 2025 Even when Andor was first announced, nobody expected that one of the supporting characters from Rogue One was going to make for an interesting series, but Tony Gilroy managed to pull it off; delivering a Star Wars series that not only looked fantastic, but had such relevant themes that some say needed to be explored in today's day and age. We don't know if Star Wars will ever get something like this again, but hopefully the rave reviews will have Lucasfilm thinking twice before they make another season of The Mandalorian filled with all kinds of cameos and digitally youth-anized characters. Catch the complete second season of Andor now streaming on Disney+.

‘Andor' Understood How to End Itself
The final arc of the 'Star Wars' series gave us the endings we needed—and knew where to leave some stories open. Andor's final batch of episodes had to walk a steady balancing act, tying together myriad swirling character arcs into the overarching looming shadow of not just the events of Rogue One, but the events of Star Wars itself. In navigating those final climactic days where Andor could be itself as well as the passer of the torch, the show managed to give us and its characters alike the endings that perhaps mattered most. Luthen It's impossible to talk about the final arc of Andor without talking about the ending it gets out of the way first. Luthen's long-awaited confrontation with Dedra is tragic in many ways, not just because of his choice to sacrifice himself to deny her the information she craves, but because, in contrast to the other rebellious stories we see climax here, it's so incredibly lonely. There is no grand exit, no long goodbye—he gets a brief moment with Kleya when he sends her away, and of course, Dedra's attempts to keep him alive make the actual moment of his end occur after the course of episode 10, 'Make It Stop.' He dies quietly, he dies unable to really know just what an impact he's about to have on the people he knew, the people he loved, the Rebellion, and the fate of the galaxy itself. But Luthen's final moment standing, before he takes the knife to himself, as sad as it is, is also a beautiful one—one that thematically then ties the endings of the rest of the rebels across Andor's final act together brilliantly. 'The Rebellion isn't here anymore, it's flown away,' he tells Dedra. 'It's everywhere now… there's a whole galaxy out there, waiting to disgust you.' The work Luthen did may have been isolatory by design, playing cells and operatives off each other, the paranoia of all the secrets he helped keep. But as he burns brightly, for that sunrise he knew he'd never see, he is defiantly steadfast that what he has helped create has connected voices all over the galaxy. That there are, as his agents' code phrase said, friends everywhere. Partagaz and the ISB It is this particular thematic throughline sparked by Luthen's words that also defines the endings of our Imperial antagonists across the arc in stark contrast. We'll get to Dedra separately, but it's interesting that the endings we get for Andor's ISB apparatus—represented by her, Partagaz, and Heert in these episodes, and to a lesser extent double-agent Lonni—are lonely for very different reasons than Luthen's was. Syril's death on Ghorman laid the blueprint here: Andor's vision of the Empire is defined in equal parts the abuse of its systems for personal glorification, and the deadly threat of that system subsuming even its most ardent supports and benefactors, because that's exactly what the Empire is designed to do. Lonni might die at Luthen's hands, it's implied, but he dies because his use as a tool of the system he'd turned on is over. Heert's grand chase of Kleya—a mirror to Dedra's obsession with Axis that he'd sneered at her for—is rewarded with K2 tossing his lifeless body around as a meatshield, crumpled and forgotten. Partagaz's is perhaps the most deliciously bitter, not just for the system he helped create crashing down around him, but because, again, his final moments are spent realizing that the rebellion is so much bigger than the 'disease' he thought he could contain and sterilize. He's alone in a room, committing suicide, after hearing Nemik's manifesto: he has no idea who it is. He just knows, again, that it's getting out everywhere. Kleya Kleya's end is not so much an end, but a continuation of a legacy that she's followed her whole life. Luthen's sacrifice gives her a chance to flee and tell the Rebellion about the Death Star, but it also pushes her out from under his lonely world of cloak and daggers, in a way. In the flashbacks that are woven throughout her solo mission to lay Luthen to rest before the Empire can pull him from the brink, we see her story start alone and afraid and angry—and in choosing to save this orphaned child and help her point that anger somewhere as she grows up, Luthen's final gift to Kleya is to give her something bigger to be part of. Perhaps it's a story we'll revisit someday, of Kleya's life in the Rebellion, but in this moment that set of facts doesn't really matter, it's that she gets to carry on his spirit as the Rebellion flourishes. Dedra It's fitting and so telling then, that Kleya and Dedra's final moments on-screen in Andor are side-by-side. If Kleya wakes up to on the new dawn of being part of the thing her mentor helped build, then Dedra—clad in those white-and-orange scrubs of the Imperial prison system—is to witness the structure that she helped build and champion chew her up and spit her out into some forgotten hole. We know from season one's arc on Narkina-5 that the Empire has now designed these facilities to never really grant freedom. There's a fascinating parallel to Syril's own death in her ultimate punishment, the idea that her obsession with Axis, as his was with Cassian, pushed her and pushed her to a point where the Empire itself could turn on her and discard her, and she'd be too blinkered to notice it until it was too late. It's not just that Dedra's hoarding of information she shouldn't have lands her in Krennic's crosshairs, it's her drive to get Luthen, to keep him alive once he mortally wounds himself, in the hopes that she will be rewarded regardless of any transgression she's made to get there. That the Imperial system she believed in will work for her, rather than her for it. But the Empire exists to consume even its most loyal adherents, and so her punishment for championing it so ardently is as satisfying to watch as it was inevitable. Bix If any of Andor's endings might prove controversial, it's perhaps its very last one. In some ways, Bix's isolation from the final act of Andor (a decision she makes, but one that still takes her out of the broader fight she had previously yearned to be part of), only for her to part the series with the revelation that she's given birth to Cassian's child—a child he'll never know—treats her story as less her own, and more in the service of Cassian's. But it's likewise also compelling that Bix is the rare character who ends the series given the chance of peace, of not having to fight and struggle. Many of the journeys that close out Andor are ones that we know will continue, and more specifically that continue in the sense that their fight isn't over yet. That she is the final vision we have the show feels, in part, that this is what it was all for: to be free to live life with loved ones, a generation that can grow up in the hope that they in turn don't have to fight and struggle to maintain that peace. Bail Organa But wait! Bail Organa's journey doesn't end in Andor. He's in Rogue One! He's technically in A New Hope, or at least very, very tiny atomized parts of him are! But while those stories are, chronologically speaking, Bail's last moments in the Star Wars saga, it feels like Andor actually gives the man himself a proper sendoff—more proper than the hasty one he gets in Rogue One to go meet his explosive destiny—in his brief chat with Cassian. It's short and sweet but laden with meaning, to give Bail a little teeth, and a moment of bonding with Cassian after their initial disagreements. We don't ever get to see Bail's final moments from his own perspective on screen (they're retold, if you're interested, in the From a Certain Point of View anthology), but giving him a goal to go out swinging feels like a fitting coda. The Stories Left Untold But for all the above stories that Andor wraps up in its last act, there's just as many—and it's just as important—that it leaves so many paths open. There's characters we just simply don't see again, like Leida after her wedding, or even further flung characters like Kino Loy from season one. There's characters for who the story just continues elsewhere, like Cassian and K2 themselves, or Mon Mothma, last seen chatting to Vel amid the hubbub of Yavin IV, or Saw, staring down the Imperial occupation of Jedha. Some of these are famous Star Wars figures, and we know where they end up, but just as important is getting flashes like Wilmon and Dreena sharing food, or, in a grimly hilarious fashion, a drunken Perrin hanging off the arm of Davro Sculden's wife. Perhaps most fitting then is an end we glimpse, but never get: when Cassian wakes from his slumber to go on his mission to Kafrene, he dreams of his long-missing sister. Andor's first major story thread, the focus of its opening scenes to put this whole story into motion, never gets resolved. Some people may be frustrated by that, in an age when Star Wars fans and Star Wars itself, at times, is obsessed with checking off the facts and details of its world. But we get everything we need to know: Cassian still thinks about her. He dies never getting the answer. We will, perhaps rightfully, never learn ourselves. Not all ends definitively. Life goes on. Even as we know the broad strokes of what's about to go down in this moment in Star Wars, some answers are just never found. But there's a whole texture of existence beneath that sweeping saga and those big questions, and that's what Andor was always reminding us of.

Andor Ends With Tragedy and Hope
One of Star Wars' best may be over, but life and rebellion alike go on. The end of Andor sets in motion the vital mission of Rogue One, to get the Death Star plans to the rebels. The way the pieces have come together thanks to everyday people in a galaxy of unsung heroes—a senator on the run, survivors of colonization, bellhops, radical splinter cell members, and even Imperial defectors—is masterful storytelling. Tony Gilroy and the team behind Andor have made the best of Star Wars and television. It's an inspiring and important triumph. For fans of the Star Wars canon, there's nothing else like Andor, and it will probably change the way we watch the series moving forward. At the end of the show, you'll want to cue up Rogue One and the original trilogy—that's for sure. The fact that it's over is still a shock to believe. Andor is hands-down Lucasfilm's crowning achievement of this era. Kathleen Kennedy's leadership, giving Star Wars the freedom to go there, proves there's still fire in the rebellion. Here's what went down on the final arc of episodes. Deep uncover agent Lonni (Robert Emms) rings the big alarm to meet with Luthen (Stellan Skarsgård) and reveals that the Emperor's energy program is a front. He explains the big picture Luthen's been trying to see: the Empire is targeting Ghorman for fuel, and Jedha for kyber crystals, to build parts for a super weapon using prison labor (as seen on Narkina 5 in Andor season one). After their terse exchange, Luthen kills his Imperial inside man and sets out to get the intel he's been waiting for to the rebels. He meets up with Kleya (Elizabeth Dulau) to immediately relay the information to make contact with Cassian (Diego Luna). As she's instructed to leave, Dedra (Denise Gough) arrives, having found Luthen's storefront for their long-awaited showdown. They banter about antiques, and she pulls out the vintage Imperial star-path unit that started it all. Mero lays into him, it's her moment, but Luthen drags her because 'freedom scares her.' He tells her 'The Rebellion is everywhere' and there's 'a whole galaxy out there waiting to disgust' her. It's an all-timer line delivery from Skarsgård as he stabs himself after buying enough time for the evidence to burn. He counted on Dedra needing her moment. In the most 'evil villain undone by their hubris' moment, Dedra calls for a medical extraction in the hopes of keeping Luthen alive to turn him in, her axis trophy slipping through her fingers. At ISB, Partagaz (Anton Lesser) is pissed about the failed raid and Heert (Jacob James Beswick) him about Lonni being found dead. Kleya is at the group's safe house after witnessing Luthen being carted off by Dedra to the hospital. She remembers her past. Here we discover, like Cassian, she was found on a warfront, but by Luthen. Thankfully, it didn't turn out that she was Cassian's sister because Lucasfilm learned from the lesson that Star Wars does not need everyone to be related. The only Shakespearean thing about this moment was that Luthen's real last name was Lear (Rael backwards!). He was an acting sergeant who had heard one too many families being wiped out by armies under his command and left with his new charge, the young Kleya. It's heartfelt to see their past as they taught each other how to navigate the galaxy while seeing where to sow the seeds of rebellion for all that was taken away. Early on, she learned to wait for the moment to strike—otherwise, everything is put at risk. She grows up to be a calculating soldier in their army of two before expanding their rebel spy network. Dulau's performance sings as the show's best secret weapon; her mask comes off with a huge sacrifice, and that's making sure Luthen stays dead. Her action sequence slipping into the hospital on a mission was breakneck and exacting in a way that we've never seen a rebel be, and astounding. Meanwhile, Heert makes sure Dedra's girl-bossing too close to the sun gets her what she deserves. She jeopardized everything to the point where Krennic (Ben Mendelsohn) shows up to give her a full inquisition. It's a masterclass of evil on evil hate between Mendelsohn and Gough, though I think Syril's mom could make Krennic cry (shout-out to the iconic Kathryn Hunter, who was missed but not forgotten). Krennic and Dedra figure out somehow that Jung stole her cert access and read over her files for a few hours. But the curious thing is that Krennic asks how she knew about Galen Erso. Caught red-handed, she admits she was forwarded a bundle of intel by mistake and kept it. A mistake that's going to cost everyone, as the name of the Death Star's architect jumped out at Lonni, who gave it to Luthen. The way the actors depict the interplay of villainy was delightful, with the sneers from Krennic and biting clap-backs of why Dedra scavenged for things ignored—which is how she found Luthen. It didn't matter now; her prize cow was slaughtered, and in turn, the Empire's biggest secret was about to be found out. Mero gives him Kleya's identity as who else might know. At the halfway mark of this arc, Kleya constructs a transmitter to send word to Cassian to rendezvous, but time is running out. Meanwhile, Heert is about to find Kleya's face on the security cameras of the hospital as they scrub looking for a team of rebels when it turns out it was just her. And we love that moment of embarrassment that their sniveling poor shooters were outdone and taken out by one woman. Partagaz and Krennic have it out, and Partagaz tells him he's over his head for thinking something as huge as the Death Star could be hidden. They send out Kleya's image to all security points, and Partagaz says she has an infectious disease that can kill thousands if not stopped. Fitting, right? And so very telling as he's lost faith in fighting the disease, and Lesser does an excellent job at playing a man who sees the writing on the wall. Or rather the alliance star-bird. Despite Draven frowning down on Wilmon and Cassian taking Kleya's call, it's too late as Cassian and Melshi head out to extract her. Everything is closing in her as they meet up and she tells them everything Luthen told her. The pulse and pace of the scene will leave you breathless—they could have left her there , but Cassian fights against her reluctance to leave and convinces her to go back with them to Yavin to see what she helped build. It was not too late for her to see she could make the choice to stop working alone and transform Luthen's foundation into what the Alliance had raised on Yavin. The Imperials close in as K-2SO takes out as many as it can, which is most of them, but some still manage to get to Kleya and the extraction team injuring her in a fire fight. But with one KX unit on their side, it's enough to get them off Coruscant. When the mission fails, Partagaz knows it's over and that they are done for. Saw (Forest Whittaker), Mon (Genevieve O'Reilly), and Bail (Benjamin Bratt) argue about course direction as Andor comes in hot. Saw ends his transmission with a wink of the dangers he's playing with on Jedha, which—more on that shortly, but it was brilliant to show the beginning of the table the Alliance has built. The scene that followed with Cassian telling them about the Death Star makes it even more amazing to see unfold that a group of people with various amounts of power and influence can actually work together for the betterment of all—for freedom from tyranny. Only in science fiction! At first though they don't believe want to believe Luthen's intel about the Death Star being what is currently in construction—under the cover of the energy project the Senate has been funding for years. Of course Bail and the Rebel Alliance immediately wanted to write it off as crazy talk because Luthen was paranoid. Cassian thinks they should believe this intel and dig into who Galen Erso is in connection to the Kyber on Jedha and the Ghorman mining. He points out that they have given a fraction of what Luthen gave to the rebellion. The speech delivered by Luna as Andor made captain filled me with so much pride at seeing his moment of arrival: Andor is a leader and the hero we deserve. Bail argues that perhaps Luthen was being played as the ISB was on to him. Andor asks to visit Kleya in the infirmary and tells her she's doing what he can. Mon and Vel meet up and it's a relief to see that they at least have each other. Mon asks Vel to talk to Cassian to help her believe him even through you know intuitively she knows Luthen was right. Vel and Cassian drink to their fallen from Jedha to Ferrix, including Luthen. He died for the intel, no matter what he did to them along the way. Nemik's manifesto rings over the last act. The Rebellion is everywhere, and Partagaz—who realizes the disease has taken root—takes his own life before having to answer to the Emperor. Back on Yavin, Vel encourages Cassian to reconnect with Bix. He asks if she's safe wherever she is. Vel's nod helps him see distance as the best option to keep it that way for now and that he'll think about it once it all settles down. She encourages him to not 'wait too long,' foreshadowing the path we know he's on. Kleya is found wandering in the rain by Vel and she reminds her she has friends everywhere. As the finale draws to a close, Draven informs Cassian that his informant on Jedha wants to meet him at Kafrene's trading post for some pressing intel and that he's been released from being on time out for saving Kleya. The fact that the informant is reaching out from Jedha, where Kleya called out the Empire's presence, gave leadership enough to rethink their position. Bail shows up to give Andor the go-ahead to pursue more action in getting more info on the Death Star and sends him off with a 'May the Force be with you, captain.' It's both powerful and poignant coming from two figures no longer hidden from the Star Wars lore we know. And with that, Cassian and the Rebel Alliance head to a certain destiny. On a distant planet, we see B2-EMO again with Bix and a baby. It underscores the message of Andor that no matter what happens acts of resistance are worth it for the freedom of those you love. Bix and their child breathing free means that thanks to Cassian's actions in the Rebellion, his choices will lead to victory. No matter the cost, they will win. Andor seasons one and two are now streaming on Disney+.

Andor – Season 2 Episode 10 'Make It Stop' Recap & Review
Make It Stop Episode 10 of Andor season 2 starts with us cutting forward a year, as we prepare for the run-up to Rogue One's story. Lonnie Jung continues to be Luthen's most valuable spy, feeding information to him and Kleya. The latest is pretty big, given he hits the alarms and sends Luthen out to meet him in person. Jung confirms that Dedra has contacted a friend in Tactical who is looking for a team so she can hit Coruscant. He believes that this is a strike against Luthen… but he's done. Jung is no longer going to be an informant for nothing, knowing it's only a matter of time before he's outed and killed. He has a wife and kid to look after, and he wants assurances. In exchange for safety and, presumably, immunity from any crimes within the Empire, he promises to reveal some massive news about what the Empire are up to. Luthen agrees and Jung talks to him about how the Empire's energy program is a lie and they're actually looking for kyber crystals. Alongside the mining on Ghorman and several other operations across the galaxy are all feeding into the Empire's master-weapon. and it would appear that Engineer Galen Erson (played by Mads Mikkelsen in Rogue One!) is a key part of this. Unfortunately for Jung, he's overplayed his hand and Luthen decides to kill him, before feeding back what he's learned to Kleya. After destroying his radio equipment and sabotaging anything that could lead the Imperials to the rebels, Luthen is greeted by Dedra. They flirt around the truth before Dedra shows her hand and knows that Luthen is part of the rebellion. Dedra is confident that he'll come quietly, given the building is surrounded and he's due to be arrested. However, when Dedra catches wind of the smoke coming from the back, she realizes that he was waiting for her. Luthen stabs himself in the gut to prevent Dedra torturing any info from him. Dedra hurriedly brings in the troops though and carts him off to get urgent medical attention. At the hospital, Dedra is determined to get Luthen to talk, forcing the hospital staff to bend over backwards for her and prioritizing Luthen's recovery. Partagaz briefs the team about Dedra's raid that's gone wrong, but he also finds out about Jung too just to add to the chaos. Kleya is now alone, and with nobody else to turn to, she heads to the abandoned apartment alone and grabs a bag hidden behind the roof panels. Flashbacks help to flesh out more of Luthen and Kleya's ties throughout this episode, including how Luthen actually protected her during his time in the army. He became disillusioned with this life, refusing to fight, and stalling for time onboard the ship. Kleya and Luthen form a tight bond over time, akin to that of a father/daughter duo 'when it suits them', although Kleya is also subjected to the atrocities from the Empire, who line up a bunch of slaves and shoot them in the town square they're currently in. Kleya wants to fight back but Luthen points out that they need to play this smart. These bonds of loyalty that the pair share are important to note because for Kleya, she owes a debt to Luthen – which she intends to repay. She shows up at the hospital and works her way through the floors to find Luthen, disguised as a nurse, but unfortunately the 19th floor (where he's being kept) is under lock and key. Kleya eventually decides to take the old fashioned route with a gun. She shoots up the guards and eventually makes it into the room with Luthen. She shuts off the machine, knowing they can't risk the rebellion efforts if he talks. After kissing him on the forehead, she leaves just as soldiers show up. The Episode Review So Luthen meets his demise, but the whole chapter works to explore the relationship dynamic between Kleya and Luthen. The flashbacks are woven nicely into the storyline, and the whole chapter shows the shades of grey we're dealing with when it comes to the rebellion. Jung's death is certainly surprising, while Luthen gives his life for the sake of the rebellion. This al works to bridge the gap up to Rogue One, which in turn leads into the original trilogy. This is easily the best Star Wars content Disney have produced, but similarly the series has also struggled with its focus too. For a show titled Andor, it's pretty funny how little this guy actually stars in his own series. The ending does leave the door wide open for the remaining two episodes though, which look set to pick up the pace.

Andor Is Over, and Denise Gough Is Cheering Dedra's Fate: ‘I'm So Happy'
The following contains spoilers from Season 2, Episode 12 aka the series finale of , now streaming on Disney+. How quickly fortunes changed for ISB supervisor Dedra Meero. More from TVLine Andor Season 2 MVP Elizabeth Dulau Talks Kleya's 'Entirely Conflicted' Final Mission, and Her Series-Ending Fate The Voice Results-Show Recap: Did Viewers Send the Right Top 5 to Season 27's Finale? The Rookie Boss Talks Bright Side of Finale's Big #Chenford Tease, Ramifications of (Spoiled) Cameo Having risen up the ranks during Season 1, Dedra spent much of Season 2 overseeing the 'gift' that had been handed her by Director Orson Krennic: seeing to it that violence erupts on Ghorman, so as to justify the Empire's presence on that planet (while also distracting from Imperial engineers' destructive extraction of calcite). But for as much as Dedra may have seen herself as part of the larger Death Star initiative, in the end she wound up making parts for the Death Star, as a Narkina 5 inmate. Dedra in Episode 10 had confronted Luthen Rael aka the elusive 'Axis' she'd hunted for two seasons, only to let him stab himself with a dagger relic, so as to avoid interrogation. Luther didn't die on the spot but was rushed to a Coruscant hospital, where Dedra kept close watch on his condition — until, that is, Officer Heert showed up to relieve her of duty, by having her arrested. (Apparently, Krennic was no fan of Dedra confronting Luthen without authorization/backup.) So, after offering Heert an assist (in the hunt for Luthen's assistant Kleya) from detention, Dedra was last seen, in the series finale's closing montage, cooling her heels in the same island prison that Cassian (Diego Luna) did some time in in Season 1. 'I was so happy' with Dedra's fate, portrayer Denise Gough told TVLine. 'I felt so happy for the audience. 'It's so gratifying' to see where Dedra ended up, the Irish actress continued, 'because we know what goes on in Narkina 5. It's such a perfect little button at the end of this season, because you can't have a character like that just get away with [the things she did].' Considering other possible fates for her character, Gough said, 'I'm glad she wasn't killed.' Instead, 'I'm really glad that we get to see her in that uniform, in that Narkina 5 [cell].' As scene partner Kyle Soller, who played Dedra's partner Syril, put it, seeing 'someone who's been so about control being put into the ultimate controlled space is–' 'Amazing,' Gough attested. 'A brilliant end.' What did you think of Dedra's fate, the series finale, and Season 2 as a whole?
