Luna also relishes getting a chance to complete the full arc of the story with characters first introduced in the film back in 2016. “You're going to see why K-2 is so important in Rogue One,” Luna teases, “and how does he get to be such an important character for the Rebellion.”

Not only that, but the actor says that the final season of Andor will permanently change how people view the movie moving forward. “I think people watching Rogue One, after watching season 2, are going to see a different film. Everything will be signified differently knowing what had to happen for K-2 to be there. It's going to make you witness the journey of Rogue One in a different way, I think. And not just with K-2, but with many other characters. I think it'll be really cool.”

Nothing about Star Wars is original if we want to get that reductionist about it. We could easily hand wave the original trilogy away as being carried by its effects.

It’s not particularly original, it’s never been narratively innovative, and it’s never been particularly well written on a dialogue standpoint. That’s not what carries them. It’s a sum of its parts/timing situation when you get down to it.
