Andor Season 2 Quietly Recasts A Major Star Wars Character With A New Actor

These articles contain Spoilers For the second arc of the second season of “AndOr”.

The senator was on bail of Urga from Aldran, a floors in “Star War“ Myths from the first batch in 1977, when Princess Lea Ortha sent her HolomesSage to Obi One Kinopi in his exile on Tatwin. The Galaxy Watch was the most despair: Bail Leia asked OBI-Lan Kenobi and again invited him to the rebellion and bring Death Star plans to the rebel base. But Vader’s inherited Lea’s Hero, and he gave an example of Aldran using the star of death to turn it into space dust. Bail Organa met his tragic end among Alderaanian citizens during this explosion, and he was unprecedented on the screen in the 1977 movie.

The Bail Organa character was not already seen in the body until the 2002 Clones attack, when actor Jimmy Smits played it. To this point, Smits may be famous for his time in the famous TV programs “La law” and “NYPD Blue”, but suddenly, he entered a distant galaxy.

He was appointed decades of “New Hope”, “an attack from cloned animals” gave SMITS an opportunity to embody the character that will become the father of Princess Leah with adoption and the stillness of the rebellion against the empire.

After his first appearance in the movie “Attack of the Clones”, Smits returned at “Revenge of the Sith”, which testifies to the end of Jedi. After saving Obi Wan Kinopi and Yada, he took over the adoption of Anakin Skywalker’s daughter, Leah … Perhaps the end of the character’s journey was in the “Star Wars”. Instead, it seemed as if it might be the end of SMits as a letter; Bail Organa appeared in the TV series “Star Wars: The Clone Wars”, but this time it was expressed by Phil Lamarr.

After that, it does not seem as if there were any other opportunities for more storytelling “Star Wars”, especially those that involve Bail Organa as a character, until George Lucas announced that he was developing in more films and he would sell Lucasville to Disney. This way for Jimmy Smits to return to the round twice-once on the big screen in the movie “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” for 2016, and again in the Disney+ 2022 series “Obi-Wan Kenobi”, where he finally explained one of the oldest relationships in all “Star Wars”.

Nevertheless, this seems to be really the end of the line for Jimmy Smits and his play that plays the character. As of the second season of 2025 of “AndOr”, the Senator was rewrotic on bail of Ortha again.

I waited a quiet surprise, the fans who saw the second season of “AndOr” where we were re -presented to the Bail Organa, but it was not the familiar face of Jimmy Smits who received us. Instead, Benjamin Prat was. Pratt is likely to be known for his roles in “law and order”, “Miss Touritoa”, and the voice of Ernesto de la Cruz in Pixar “Coco”. But he will now take the actor of “Star Wars” and Senator from Idiran-although exactly the number of other stories in the direct work that must be listed with Bail Organa is guessing anyone after “Andor”.

Pratt’s vision in this role was somewhat bound in the beginning, but film makers behind the show gave us wisdom in a episode first to use the fans in this change. By his next appearance (you knew a personality that this big will not go down to only one minute from the screen time), his behavior, voice, and attractiveness, along with the Edish outfit and the head that cannot belong to anything else, he is fully convinced that he had tried the entire sponsorship role. It ends up working perfectly, and in a written offer as well as “AndOr”, it is difficult to make them wrong to reformulate it rather than writing such an important character outside the story completely when Jimmy Smits was not available for any reason (until this lines, there was no reason to be available to the key).
