“They’re putting together a coffee table book, The Art of Andor, and they asked me to write a foreword for it… So I finally opened the book, and I was like, “Oh my God.” Every page has ideas that we talked about over the course of a million meetings, and it’s just so good.” Tony Gilroy 1/2

While promoting his cautionary tale about fascism, Disney asked Gilroy to refrain from using the word. Nine months after it aired its finale, the 'Star Wars' series feels scarily prescient.
