Star Wars Announces Historic Theatrical Re-Release for Disney+ Spin-off
Andor is set to expand the story of the Rebellion amid the threat of the whole might of the Empire. The upcoming Disney+ series is set to revolve around Diego Luna's Cassian Andor, who is one of the main characters of Star Wars: Rogue One. The 12-episode adventure is expected to tackle the formative years of the Rebellion, leading to the notable mission to steal the Death Star plans that transpired in the Star Wars spin-off.
Despite a slight delay in its release, the anticipation surrounding the Star Wars show has been high. Andor's trailers proved the massive scale of the series, tackling many subplots, such as Cassian's origins, the political side of the Rebellion, and the Empire's reign.
While fans are waiting for the show's small-screen premiere, a significant new update about Andor could further build the hype for its impending release.

Rogue One's return to theaters marks the first time that Disney is re-releasing a movie to promote an upcoming Disney+ series.
Alongside the reveal, a new poster for Rogue One was unveiled:
In a time of conflict, a group of unlikely heroes band together on a mission to steal the plans to the Death Star, the Empire's ultimate weapon of destruction. This key event in the Star Wars timeline brings together ordinary people who choose to do extraordinary things, and in doing so, become part of something greater than themselves.
