Gilroy has a point. Even in contemporary stories, all characters will eventually die, unless you watch them Highlander. Knowing that doesn’t spoil their current adventure either.
Cassian Andor’s death doesn’t limit Diego Luna either
It’s one thing to write Andor’s life before rogue one. Luna played his death scene. However, that doesn’t stop Luna from exploring Andor before the movie.
“It’s the opposite,” Luna said. “I’m going to challenge everything you think about Cassian. Everything that made sense when you were watching the movie is going to be challenged now, because I’m thinking about it. I know where you end up, and I can be very creative with how to get there. I think it releases a different part of your creativity, When you start back.”

Luna, a fan of historical non-fiction, said he could come close Andor same way.
Not as an actor, I’m telling you as an actor, there’s nothing I love more than going to see big shows about historical moments that I know happened, and that I know the ending. And the characters I read about, and then I go and watch a movie about them and see in between what I’ve read. For me, it celebrates in a way and challenges the masses in a very special way. It’s like you know this is possible. You know someone can do it. Well, I’m going to tell you something you don’t know why that is, and for me, storytelling becomes a cool thing. And again, that’s what I’m looking for as an audience.
Diego Luna, Television Critics Committee, 8/3/22
Everyone knows what happens in ‘Star Wars’.
Gilroy also linked him to frequent watching the movie. Most people watch movies more than once, even though they know what’s going on.
“The suspension of disbelief is more fragile than that, because you can watch a movie a third time,” Gilroy said. “You just watched it six months ago, and you can, if you like it, because you watch it again, you invest in it. That is not a concern for a playwright.”
Looking at what we’re talking about star WarsPeople watch these movies more than three times. You always know the Death Star is going to explode, but it doesn’t spoil the experience.
