Star Wars: Alan Tudyk "so excited" for Cassian Andor series alongside Diego Luna

The Galaxy is about to get a whole lot wider and funnier.

If you were a huge fan of standalone Star Wars film Rogue One : A Star Wars Story, then you are going to love this.

K2-SO actor Alan Tudyk appeared in a talk with actor Warwick Davis at Star Wars Celebration in Chicago, Illinois, when he discussed the upcoming spin-off series on Cassian Andor.

Tudyk revealed that he is "so excited" for the Cassian Andor series alongside his Rogue One co-star Diego Luna .

The Firefly star also revealed how he first became involved in the series, which is set to debut on new streaming service Disney+.

Lucasfilm chief Kathleen Kennedy told Tudyk "at a Star Wars event" and she revealed it would be "a year or two away".

This was music to Tudyk and Luna's ears.

"We talked about it on set..K2 and Cass."

There were a number of humorous titles that the actors considered too.

"It could be any of those things...K2: The early years.”"

Warwick Davis discussed when the series takes place and both confirmed, naturally, that it will take place before Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.

We will have quite the wait for it to arrive, however.

"It probably won’t be on until 2021."

A humorous clip was, then shown of K2-SO in a cockpit playing with action figures, and was described by Tudyk as a "sneak peak", however, the CGI was evidently unfinished.

Little else is known of the plot.

We do know when we can expect fellow Disney+ series The Mandalorian trailer: Star Wars series revealed footage at Celebration panel , however.
