Andor star Diego Luna’s birthday is here and Star Wars fans are in the mood to celebrate. The 43-year-old star had quite the year with the premiere of his Disney+ series. According to a lot of fans on social media, Cassian Andor’s show was the best Star Wars TV produced by Disney in quite some time. For now, all eyes are on whatever’s going to happen in Season 2. It might have taken a while, but the fandom got around to watching all of the series and expressing their thankfulness that the show even exists. One of the big compliments that you could give Luna is that his character is clearly evolving as things go along. Comicbook.com had the chance to catch up with the star in September, he seemed to know that they would have a good show on their hands.
