While the Star Wars franchise doesn't have a major presence at Comic-Con this year (outside of the Lucasfilm Publishing panel), there is one welcome treat in the form of a display featuring a number of costumes used in the various Disney+ series. And it turns out some of them even tease plot points in the upcoming Star Wars: Andor series.
We snapped some photos of this most impressive Star Wars display, which includes the Darth Vader suit worn by Hayden Christensen in Obi-Wan Kenobi and the Mandalorian armor of characters like Din Djarin, Boba Fett and Bo-Katan Kryze. See them all in the slideshow gallery below:
Alongside the familiar costumes from past Disney+ series, this display includes costumes worn by Genevieve O'Reilly's Mon Mothma and Diego Luna's Cassian Andor in the Andor series. The display plaques even include some intriguing plot details about the show.
Mon Mothma's plaque reads, "The Imperial senator from Chandrila, Mon Mothma carefully navigates the dangerous shadows of Coruscant politics in her efforts to build a rebellion."
Meanwhile, Cassian's plaque reads, "As part of his entry into the growing rebellion, Cassian Andor must undertake a dangerous mission on Aldhani."
No Star Wars series is truly complete without at least one new droid character, and it's clear Andor won't disappoint on that front. This display includes a spot for B2EMO, a scrap-collecting droid who has apparently been serving the Andor family for many years.
Star Wars: Andor was first announced in 2018 and will follow Andor, the thief-turned-Rebel spy, leading up to the events of Rogue One where the plans for the Death Star are stolen. The series could also feature some previously cut characters. Andor debuts with its first two episodes on Disney+ on August 31, 2022. Be sure to check out the trailer and our breakdown of everything we saw in it.
