Part 2/7:
Disney announced that it spent a staggering $645 million on the Andor series, making it the most expensive Star Wars production ever disclosed in its public filings. This monumental figure eclipses previous costs for major films—including $243 million for The Force Awakens and approximately $600 million for The Rise of Skywalker. To put things into perspective, the annual spending on Andor is more than the combined costs of past Star Wars films, and remarkably, it comes from a show that failed to gain significant viewership.
