AndorSeason 2 is set to arrive on Disney+ tomorrow, but early reviews for the series are already pouring in. After the first season ofAndorwas universally lauded as one of the bestStar Warsprojects ever, fans everywhere have been on pins and needles waiting to see how Season 2 follows it up. Now, enoughearly reviewshave come in thatAndorhas been given a strong 97% rating onRotten Tomatoes, even higher than the 96% score earned by its preceding season. This comes from 31 reviews at the time of writing, so it is subject to change, but this is a great start for the first Star Wars Disney+ series of 2025. An audience score will not be available until after the premiere.
AndorSeason 2 will feature a bit of adifferent release modelthan Season 1. The first season of the hit Star Wars series debuted its first three episodes at once before shifting to a weekly release model, but Season 2 will continue to release three episodes at a time until the final three episodes debut on May 13. Each group of episodes released at a time will follow a confined story with time jumps of roughly one year in between, which is likely one of the reasons why a new release model is being tested forAndor. However, Season 1 also features stories with multi-episode arcs while sticking with a weekly release model, which begs the question of whyDisneyis willing to give up such a prominent spot in the conversation by constrainingAndorto releasing over less than a month.
