Andor takes place five years before Luke, Leia, Han Solo, and Chewbacca teamed up and took down the Death Star in A New Hope. That would put the princess in her early teenage years in Andor.
Perhaps chief among them is Luthen's assistant, Kleya Marki, whose uncanny resemblance to Star Wars icon Carrie Fisher has led fans to wonder: Is Leia on Andor? Played by actor Elizabeth Dulau, Luthen's assistant helps to maintain his antiquities store while also aiding his Rebel activities.
Some Star Wars fans are convinced that one Andor character is secretly Princess Leia. Multiple theories postulate that Kleya Marki, played by Elizabeth Dulau, isn't who she claims to be in Disney+'s Andor show. It's actually been suggested that the mysterious shop assistant is none other than Princess Leia herself.
In 1977, Fisher starred as Princess Leia in George Lucas' space-fantasy film Star Wars (later retitled Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope) opposite Mark Hamill and Harrison Ford. Though her fellow actors were not close at the time, they bonded after the commercial success of the film.
During the Battle of Yavin, however, when Vader almost succeeds in killing Luke - Han saved him - after this Leia's opinion of Han changed - and they slowly fell in love with each other. Leia and Han developed a relationship that would last throughout the war.
Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) previously had a relationship with Bix Caleen (Adria Arjona) yet still works with her; later he sleeps with a woman on Niamos only to rob her while she's still in bed.
If there was one stand-out moment in the first season of Tony Gilroy and Disney+'s Andor–and there were several–it surely must have been the moment that Luthen Rael (Stellan Skarsgård) deploys the side-mounted laser beam projectors, almost lightsaber-like, as he spins his Fondor Haulcraft to evade an Imperial patrol.
Andor's Skeen becomes even easier to hate when taking into consideration two previous moments in the Star Wars series. After coming across as a capable member of Vel Sartha's Rebel group, Ebon Moss-Bachrach's Arvel Skeen emerged as a traitor in Andor episode 6's ending.
Varada Sethu was born on 12 May 1992 in Kerala, India. She is an actress, known for Jurassic World Dominion (2022), Now You See Me 2 (2016) and Andor (2022).
Kerri was a human female who lived on the planet Kenari with her brother Kassa. At a young age, Kerri was separated from her brother, who was taken offworld and later became known as Cassian Andor. Many years later, Andor still searched for his long-lost sister.
Princess Leia is approximately 14 years old in Andor, which means she's too young to be Elizabeth Dulau's character. Plus, it's a bit too early for Leia to have this level of involvement in the fight against the Empire in the Star Wars timeline.
Just remember: “Kleya” and “Leia” are not the same name, and everyone in Star Wars needs to work on their enunciation. New episodes of Andor premiere on Wednesdays on Disney+.
Cassian Jeron Andor, born Kassa, is a fictional character in the Star Wars franchise, primarily portrayed by actor Diego Luna. Introduced in the feature film Rogue One (2016) as a co-lead, he is the protagonist of the ongoing prequel television series Andor (2022–present).
The Empire of Andor is different. Darth Vader and the Death Star are somewhere off-screen—the former unmentioned, the latter also unacknowledged aside from a stray reference to Scarif. The Emperor is remote and voiceless, the unseen spider at the center of a galaxy-wide web.
Perrin Fartha was portrayed by Alastair Mackenzie. He made his first appearance in "Aldhani," the fourth episode of the live-action series Andor, which was released on September 28, 2022.
There is a deleted scene from The Empire Strikes Back that makes the kiss between twins Leia and Luke even more uncomfortable due to their now-known relationship as biological brother and sister. In an alternate version of the scene featured in the movie, Leia is remarkably more affectionate toward her brother.
Han Solo marries Princess Leia and they have three children: twins named Jacen and Jaina, and a younger son named Anakin. Luke reestablishes the Jedi Order, marries a non-movie (but fan favorite) redheaded Force-wielder named Mara Jade, and they have a son, Ben Skywalker (named in honor of Obi-Wan “Ben” Kenobi).
Princess Leia Organa was one of the greatest leaders of the Rebel Alliance, fearless on the battlefield and dedicated to ending the Empire's tyranny. Daughter of Padmé Amidala and Anakin Skywalker, sister of Luke Skywalker, and with a soft spot for scoundrels, Leia ranked among the galaxy's great heroes.
