It's likely that Cassian Andor will become the hero and protagonist of his own show eventually, but why do we have to wait?
Editor's note: The following contains spoilers for Andor Episodes 1-4.In Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Cassian Andor exclaimed that he has "been in this fight since I was six years old." And yet, at the start of Andor, Cassian is hardly part of the fight against the Empire. When he first appears on the Disney+ show, Cassian is searching for his sister; after that, life gets all the more complicated for him and for the viewer.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Throughout the first four episodes, Cassian disappears for chunks of time, and while the viewer may not feel his absence as much since the rest of the characters and politics of that are just as intriguing, one can’t help but wonder why the show’s titular character has so little to do with the world he lives in.
The version of Cassian on the show Andor seems disconnected from the one in the film. His missions keep changing—he starts off looking for his long-lost sister but when that is derailed, he doesn’t think twice about it. He needs to leave Ferrix, but where is the desperation? He continues to be a mercenary selling what he can pilfer from the Imperials.
What’s frustrating about Cassian taking the backseat to the world-building and other character introductions is that the pilot episode began with a great moment of character development. On Morlana One, Cassian was being harassed by two corporate security officers from Preox-Morlana. In self-defense, he accidentally killed one, and, realizing he’d be under arrest if the other one survived, Cassian killed him in cold blood. And we see how guilty and disgusted Cassian is by his own actions.
