In the ninth episode of “Andor” Season 2, the senator from Chandrila, played by Genevieve O’Reilly, publicly denounces the Empire in a speech from her pod in the Imperial Senate.

Setting the series in motion is a proposal from �ұ�Ա𱹾�è���� that, in order to combat their mutual afflictions — aging audiences, slow ticket sales post-pandemic and creeping cultural irrelevancy — her company and Jack’s would agree to swap some top talent, generating publicity and excitement on both sides of the Atlantic.

Plus, Sherman-Palladino and Palladino were amenable to her perspective on �ұ�Ա𱹾�è����, an overburdened, passionate woman with a messy personal life.

Yanic Truesdale plays �ұ�Ա𱹾�è����’s assistant Raphael while Kelly Bishop guest stars as Jack’s mother and Dakin Matthews pops in as a member of the theater’s board.

Michel was suffering all the time and Raphael is 100% committed and in service of �ұ�Ա𱹾�è����.”
