Disappointing News for Cassian and Bix’s Baby: What Tony Gilroy Revealed!

by

Tony Gilroy recently expressed thoughts about fans speculating over the future of Cassian Andor and Bix Kaleen’s baby in Star Wars, following the conclusion of “Andor” Season 2 on Disney+. The acclaimed Star Wars series ended just a few weeks ago with a chilling scene featuring Adria Arjorna as Bix Caleen carrying a newborn child through Mina-Rau’s fields, while Diego Luna’s Cassian Andor departed for the Rogue One mission that ultimately led to his demise.

After the final episode of Season 2 of “Andor” premiered on Disney+, there has been a lot of speculation about who Bix and Casian’s baby could become in the future. However, it appears that series creator Tony Gilroy might be shedding some light on these popular fan theories. Although everything seems connected in the Star Wars universe, it looks like that may not be true for the newly introduced “Andor” infant, as per the renowned showrunner.

The baby’s identity has not been revealed in any way.

“Uh, no. No it has not been identified in any way no.”

Instead of serving as an intricate reference to another character from the Lucasian universe, it appears that Gilroy did not intend for the child’s presence to function in this manner. Some fans might have found this interpretation amusing, but it seems unlikely to be the case based on Gilroy’s intentions.

When inquired repeatedly, actress Adria Arjona presented a contrasting perspective. She expressed that she’s contemplated the question and possesses a hypothetical response, though opted not to reveal her speculations about the possible candidate.

“I can’t tell you that. I have hypothetical answer. Yeah, I can’t tell you that.”

In Season 2 of Andor, the baby reveal marked the conclusion of decades of narrative development within the Star Wars universe, symbolizing the peak of Cassian’s journey and his ultimate acceptance into the Rebel Alliance as a fully-fledged member.

The highly-praised Disney+ show featuring Diego Luna, Genevieve O’Reilly, Stellan Skarsgård, and Adria Arjona streamed for two seasons on the platform, seamlessly linking to the occurrences depicted in Star Wars: Rogue One.

Who Could Cassian and Bix’s Baby Be?

Although Tony Gilroy appears skeptical about Bix and Cassian’s child becoming significant in the Star Wars universe, this won’t deter fans from enthusiastically discussing potential outcomes.

It’s possible that Gilroy might be speaking truthfully, and the future of the Andor baby’s franchise isn’t central to the larger Star Wars storyline. The appearance of the infant in the series finale symbolizes what Andor is fighting for, providing additional depth to the selfless act he performs in Rogue One, alongside Felicity Jones’ character Jyn Erso.

As a movie enthusiast, I can’t help but ponder over the possibility that the child serves as a representation of Cassian’s motivation. Yet, it’s essential to remember that the saga might revisit this very moment in the storyline’s future timeline.

Among Star Wars enthusiasts, there is a widely-held belief that this baby might one day grow into the character played by Oscar Isaac, Poe Dameron. Fans were given glimpses into Poe’s past in Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker, where we learn he was once a spice runner on Kijimi.

One might ponder over how Poe transitioned from being the child of a Rebel icon, to a criminal on the black market, and eventually rejoining the Rebellion. However, there’s ample time between the conclusion of Andor and his debut in the Sequel Trilogy for the character to have lived a significant life before crossing paths with the hero for the first time.

If Disney chooses to do so, there are numerous opportunities to connect Bix and Cassian’s child with another Star Wars character such as Poe Dameron in future Star Wars content; it would merely require the right execution.
