Molly Brizzell is a Star Wars Editor for Screen Rant, drawing upon her life-long love of the franchise that's only grown more and more over the years.

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Ben Mendelsohn's Director Orson Krennic was a highlight of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, and now, the actor will at last reprise the role in live-action in Andor season 2. Krennic was the main antagonist of Rogue One, despite the fact he was also joined by Grand Moff Tarkin and even Darth Vader - which meant that his return was anticipated from the very moment Andor came into existence.

It was revealed by The Playlist that, in a conversation with Andor director Alonso Ruizpalacios, Mendelsohn's name was mentioned with other actors, including Stellan Skarsgård and Forest Whitaker . Ruizpalacios recited this list when recounting how lovely it was to direct all these incredible actors, and The Playlist makes it clear that Ruizpalacios likely didn't realize he was giving away a spoiler by saying Mendelsohn's name.

With season 2 set to end exactly where Rogue One picks up, Krennic's role in the story will only unite the two Star Wars projects even more. All around, Mendelsohn's return in Andor is nothing but extremely promising and exciting. With season 2 set to end exactly where Rogue One picks up, Krennic's role in the story will only unite the two Star Wars projects even more. While Mendelsohn did have a brief cameo in The Bad Batch, his character did little except sit with other Imperials and utter a quick line, and fans are sorely missing what Mendelsohn first brought to Krennic.
