Director Krennic is back folks as Ben Mendehlson is confirmed to be in Andor Season 2. The exclusive information comes from The Playlist. Now, I’ll say If this was a rumor, then the outlet doesn’t have a good enough hit rate for me. However, this was in fact a happy accident. One of Andor Season 2’s directors blurted the details out. Speaking with The Playlist was Mexican filmmaker Alonso Ruizpalacios. As per the outlet;
‘Already revealed as one of the directors of season two—along with Ariel Kleiman and Janus Metz—while Ruizpalacios was paranoid about saying anything about “Andor” given how secretive Lucasfilm is, he did seem to slip up on some details inadvertently. He said directing episodes of the series was a treat, especially directing heavyweight actors like, “Stellan Skarsgård, Forest Whitaker, and Ben Mendelsohn,” presumably not realizing he was revealing something of a spoiler (and sorry to blow up your spot).’
‘While cagey, Ruizpalacios also allowed that he was given the honor to direct the last three episodes of the 12-episode series, and as series creator Tony Gilroy told us last year, the end of “Andor” season two leads directly into the events of “Rogue One” which likely means Mendelsohn’s Krennic only turns up around the end of the season.’

So, Krennic is back for Andor Season 2 folks. I have to say Krennic is my favorite Imperial created under the Disney banner. Mendehlson was great in the role, and whilst the character dies in Rogue One, I always hoped we’d see a bit more in Andor. After all, this is likely the only chance we’ll ever get. Andor Season 1 was on another level to any Star Wars, anything, since the OT for me. To say I’m excited to see Season 2 would be a huge understatement.
Of all possible characters that could return from Rogue One, Krennic tops my list.
