In our exclusive interview, Andor star andyserkis breaks down his character Kino Loy's arc and details his reasons for returning to the StarWars franchise after playing Snoke:
With Andor season 1 drawing to a close, the latest Star Wars series still has the capacity to surprise viewers with its twists—the latest one involving new character Kino Loy, played by Andy Serkis. Crafted as a prequel to Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, the new espionage drama focuses on how Cassian Andor was brought into the fold of the Rebel Alliance in the struggle against the Empire's iron grip.
I always saw him as a foreman or a shop steward on a factory floor, who was very vocal and stood up for workers' rights. Then once he was incarcerated for no reason other than the Empire saw him as perhaps a little bit of a threat, he just became this other version of himself, which was kind of cold and shut down. He just wanted to get through the day and serve his time and get out. Then he finds his humanity again, once he is ignited by meeting Cassian.
Kino has a massive shift from episode 8 to 9, after learning about the other prisoner’s fate. Can you talk to me about that evolution? What can you tease us about episode 10? Cause it seems like Kino's possibly going to help Andor with a prison break. And he thrives. You can tell that he loves that arena with the prison ship, and all of the characters throughout the course of the series. But the prison ship and the arc that I'm part of really has all of that. It feels like he is telling a story about the power of the individual to fight against a divide-and-rule political system. It feels very contemporary, very Zeitgeist and yet mythic. And he has a very clear way of coming about that.
