Lucasfilm released one of the highest-rated series of the year in 2022 with Star Wars: Andor, and fans loved every second of it.

The theme for Andor is arguably one of the most iconic aspects of the series, and it was composed by Nicholas Britell who is revealing a pretty cool detail about the score.

Star Wars: Andor Composer Wrote a Main Theme for Every Episode 

In a new interview with TheWrap, Nicholas Britell makes a major reveal about his score for Star Wars: Andor that should delight fans. Britell revealed that he wrote a different main score for every episode.

"I had tried a few different ideas of how to orchestrate the main theme," Britell revealed, "and I remember saying, 'Tony, what if we didn't have to choose? What if we did all these ideas?' We had the insane idea of doing 12 different evolutions of the theme, one for each episode, which was its own massive undertaking. By the time I got to Episode 9, I was like, 'Wow, did I really say we were going to do 12 different main titles?'"
