He was also a puppeteer in The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, and has voiced characters in multiple TV shows. On the TV side of things, Whitaker has had major roles in Godfather of Harlem, Empire, The Shield, and the Criminal Minds franchise, to name just a few. As a savvy politician in the Imperial Senate, Mon Mothma is also one of the most important architects of what will become the Rebellion. The legendary Fiona Shaw takes a surprising turn in Andor as Maarva. On the surface, Luthen acts as a collector and something of a black market dealer. She also can be spotted in Channel Zero, Enola Holmes, The Tree of Life, and more. O'Reilly has previously appeared as Mon Mothma in Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, and voiced her character in Star Wars: Rebels.

Diego Luna and Stellan Skarsgard star in Andor, the prequel to Rogue One: A Star Wars Story on Disney+.

There will be some familiar faces who appeared in Rogue One, and plenty of new characters whose names that were very likely created from a Star Wars name generator. The new show takes place five years before the events of Rogue One, and we’ll learn how Andor became involved in the Rebellion and meet some of the key players who helped him along the way. All of that means that the new Disney+ series, Andor, is a prequel to Rogue One, as Cassian Andor is most definitely not dead on the show.

She played the character in Rogue One and Revenge of the Sith, and also voiced her in the animated show Star Wars Rebels. Saw Gerrera returns in Andor. In Andor, she's still serving in the Imperial Senate, but she's living a dangerous double life and is working against the Empire behind the scenes. He has also appeared in Mare of Easttown and [Mary Queen of Scots](https://www.gamesradar.com/mary-queen-of-scots-review/). James McCardle plays Timm in Andor. "And in order to fit into the ideal, he recognised that a structure like the fascist Empire could reward that kind of person, much more so than trying to figure it out in everyday life." "But only in that you get to do things that usually the boys only get to do, and I think it's great that now they're starting to open those doors up to showing that women can be fascists too." Like Maarva, Bix is a new character who hasn't appeared in Star Wars before. In the past, she scavenged and sold metals with her husband – we're introduced to her in a flashback doing exactly that, until a young Cassian interrupts. Bix is a friend of Cassian's who manages a yard on Ferrix.
