Andor's central thesis explicitly promotes a critique of systemic authoritarianism and imperialism, advocating for collective, revolutionary resistance against an oppressive state, which aligns with progressive ideology.
The series showcases clear diversity within its ensemble cast, which aligns with the established multicultural nature of the Star Wars universe. Its narrative focuses on themes of rebellion against an oppressive authoritarian regime, critiquing power structures and systemic control rather than explicitly targeting or negatively framing traditional identities.
Andor positively portrays LGBTQ+ characters through the relationship between Vel Sartha and Cinta Kaz. Their committed partnership is depicted with respect and emotional depth, integrated naturally into the story. The challenges they face are external, tied to their revolutionary activities, affirming their identities without negative framing or stereotypes.
The show features female characters who participate in combat, such as Vel Sartha and Cinta Kaz during the Aldhani heist. However, their victories against male opponents are primarily achieved through coordinated blaster fire and tactical maneuvers, rather than direct hand-to-hand combat, martial arts, or melee weapon engagements.
Andor primarily introduces new characters to the Star Wars universe. The few pre-existing characters featured, such as Cassian Andor, Mon Mothma, and Saw Gerrera, maintain their established canonical genders. No characters meet the definition of a gender swap.
Andor introduces new characters and expands on existing ones like Cassian Andor and Mon Mothma, whose portrayals are consistent with their established appearances. No characters previously established as one race are depicted as a different race.
