A close runner-up for many was Kino Loy (Andy Serkis), making his quite literal breakout speech from the prison in season 1, assuring inmates that there was one way out. "Kino is my favorite," one fan added. "Absolutely legendary. He doesn't need to come back and do anything else in Star Wars. That character in that moment alone was perfect."
With Andor over, next up on the live-action Star Wars TV front is Ahsoka Season 2, which will likely premiere sometime next year. The Mandalorian & Grogu is also set to be released on the 2026 movies schedule, this being the first theatrical Star Wars offering since The Rise of Skywalker.
