JAKARTA - The Andor series began airing on Disney+ Hotstar today, Wednesday, September 21. As the title implies, the series Andor explores a new point of view of the Star Wars galaxy through the captain's eyes, Cassian Andor.

The character Cassian Andor (played by Diego Luna) may not be as famous as Obi-Wan close, Hans Solo, or Luke totaling in the Star Wars universe. However, for story and film fans left: A Star Wars Story (2016), his figure has been so imprinted and dramatic -- even six years since the film was released.

Despite its vital presence, it is not easy to get to know the character of Cassian Andor from just one film. Set five years beforelie One's incident, Andor's story centers on revolution and tells the story of ordinary people making decisions at a very extreme moment in the history of Star Wars. Quoted from ANTARA, the series confirms that the background of five years before bill One was where it all started. Ideas about rebellions have sprung up all over the galaxy individually and independently.

Cassian Andor is a pilot and leader of badminton One, a team formed with the aim of stealing the Death Star plan. In addition to being a pilot, Cassian Andor also acts as a rebel Alliance spy under the control of Leia Organa.

He will become a revolutionary until later, Cassian Andor will carry out rebellions and robberies against the Galaxy empire. The rebellion will involve other communities and planets.

Diego Luna returns to play this character. It radiated clearly on the screen that Luna, who plays the executive producer of the series, so much as she cares about playing the character Andor, despite not having been in touch with this project for years.

How does he bring Andor who is full of mystery, full of pieces of the past that make him now, it feels like it still makes "sensical" if it's connected to the film badminton One six years ago -- makes this prequel seem to be the strongest foundation of the story.

Despite being called Andor, the series, which does not only rely on this main character, is the driving force of the story. The presence of other figures played by a number of actors includingprivileged O'Deputy, Stellan Skarsgård, Adria Arjona, Denise Dough, Kyle Soller,ctiona Shaw, and banyak membangun konflik, intensitas, dan drama dari serial ini.

Not only Luna who returned from badminton One, the creator of the film, Tony Gilroy, is back as the writer and producer of the series, alongside problem Haynes, problem White, and Benjamin Caron as director.

Just like the main label character, Gilroy takes a different storytelling approach when compared to other "Star Wars" series on the Disney+ platform. Not focusing on big moments and fan services, Gilroy and the directors chose to move slowly in telling Andor's story.

This is not a surprising thing, considering that the filmpily One also has exposure that tends to be slow in building conflicts or characters. Andor is not in a hurry to get to the moments that might make fans able to be prepared because of the surprise from the iconic kameo or whatever.

Instead, he did something even more surprising: Andor tells the story of people who have nothing to do with Solo, vise, or evenju -- however, their lives -- as people whose voices are not heard -- whose presence is considered meaningless -- are also equally important.

However, the decision to make this show story go slowly may not be suitable for spectators who immediately want to know what happened to their main character. However, for those who survive, it will be appreciated for their patience.

Furthermore, the selection of serial formats will at least give Andor an unexpected freedom to create his own world. This approach may also be the reason why Disney+ started the series with three episodes at once.

When viewed from a technical point of view, this series is no less beautiful when compared to the film format. In addition to a strong deep story and character, the other aspects of this series can also be said to be "not in a hurry" and made with attention.

The complex design of the Luke Hull production, the costume design of Michael banton and Emma Scott's makeup, to the majestic touch of Nicholas Britell's score, -- makes every step Cassian Andor feels much more real and alive than most previous Star Wars story settings. Imaginative, of course, but somehow it also has closeness to the audience -- which is far away, far from the galaxy.

Overall, Andor offers a fairly different adventure sensation when compared to other "Star Wars" series approaches. Still having a heart from badminton One, the series is perfect for spin-off fans six years ago -- reviving the souls of rebels who want to fight for those whose voices are defense, whose bodies are not considered by the rulers.
