The Disney+ series Andor will explore her character more than ever before.

O’Reilly was excited to get back into the role.

“That’s, you know, the phone call every actor wants to have.

So I was really thrilled.

So O’Reilly and Gilroy got a chance to explore new avenues.

“What don’t we know?

What could it be?

What could this possibly mean?

We know she’s been a senator from the age of 16.

We know that she has been representing Chandrila.

Since that time, we know that, but what does that look like?

What are the customs around that?

What are the constructs around that life?”

What does it feel like for that woman to perhaps realize that she can’t do that anymore?

And if she has to step outside that, how dangerous is that?

What does she have to risk?

What does she have to sacrifice?

Who is this woman?”

Mon Mothma makes her return in Andor, and new episodes debut on Disney+ on Wednesdays.

The cast is solid and the sets are great.
