The newest Star Wars character to have his own Disney+ series is Cassian Andor. Here's why Donnie Yen's persona ought to come next.

All of the primary characters in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story passed away on their very first on-screen appearance.

[{"selector":"#anim-e47133e4-d7d0-475b-996b-172d9553e05d [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-bec75992-7634-4847-a08a-109376c0b0c6","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-117.79935%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-b9b973df-c9e6-47a2-a176-277b217cc099","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-eb4b8cee-2a6b-4d19-ba4b-6762974447e8","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}] Image:Google

Then, Lucasfilm turned its attention back to Rey, Finn, and Kylo Ren. For a while, it was thought that the Rogue One crew had passed away.

[{"selector":"#anim-caae12c2-03a7-4479-9225-dfe7e95fc1e3 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(15.936090401375374%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-8a492b24-e988-484a-9124-830ecab485d2","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-116.82848%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d1b3a413-4aac-4a4f-8171-aa4993f6c5d3","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-58d9731f-8cb6-4a34-a564-29439b39c443","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}] Image:Google

That changed once the Disney+ series Andor, which centers on a youthful Cassian Andor before the Age of Rebellion, was revealed.

Even though Cassian Andor was a fantastic addition to the Star Wars canon, he was not given enough time onscreen to win over fans.

The Disney+ series' strength lies in its focus on supporting characters. Characters like Bo-Katan Kryze and Ahsoka Tano have become more prominent thanks to Disney+.
