We are thrilled to bring you our interviews with Alan Tudyk (K-2SO) and Margit Pfeiffer (Supervising Sound Editor on ANDOR season 1 and season 2).

We talked: Constructing the vocals and layering a world like Ghorman with Margit. Building the tension of Mon’s speech through sound design. The differences between working on Andor and Rogue One — and what Alan would have changed (and what he wouldn’t!). How Alan came to join team Rogue One and accept the role of K-2SO.  … and so much more. Thank you so much to Lucasfilm for the opportunity!
