    ------------------------------------------
    Diego Luna returns as the Rogue One hero in a spy thriller for
    Disney's direct-to-consumer streaming service.

    Disney Chairman and CEO Bob Iger announced today that Lucasfilm
    is in development on a second Star Wars live-action series for
    Disney+, the Company's new direct-to-consumer streaming service.
    The series, which will go into production next year, follows the
    adventures of rebel spy Cassian Andor during the formative years
    of the Rebellion and prior to the events of Rogue One: A Star
    Wars Story. Diego Luna will reprise the role of Andor. "Going
    back to the Star Wars universe is very special for me," said
    Luna. "I have so many memories of the great work we did together
    and the relationships I made throughout the journey. We have a
    fantastic adventure ahead of us, and this new exciting format
    will give us the chance to explore this character more deeply."

    The rousing spy thriller will explore tales filled with espionage
    and daring missions to restore hope to a galaxy in the grip of a
    ruthless Empire. A release date for the series has not yet been
    announced. Stay tuned to StarWars.com for the latest updates.
