Why is Andor on Hulu? Disney's Thanksgiving Distribution Explained
Now that the prequel series has concluded on Disney Plus, Star Wars fans were surprised to see the show arrive cross-platform and we explain why Andor is on Hulu, amongst other streaming services.
Episode 12 of Andor, titled Rix Road, saw all the key players return to Ferrix for Maarva’s funeral. As the Empire attempted to restrain the free people, a sign of rebellion rose up while Cassian took Bix to safety.

Why is Andor on Hulu?
As confirmed by Deadline, it was reported that Andor would be getting a “cross-company push” by Disney over the Thanksgiving holiday.
The first two episodes of Andor, titled Kassa and That Would Be Me, will air across a number of Disney’s distribution platforms, including ABC, FX, Freeform, and Hulu.

When Will Andor Season 2 Come Out?
Andor will run for two seasons, as the series was previously confirmed to have 24 episodes in full, spanning two seasons.
The entirety of Andor covers a five-year period, and Season 1 already took up one year of that expanse, and the next block of episodes in Season 2 will span the remaining four years leading up to the events of Rogue One.
Considering Season 1 began filming in December 2020 and took two years to premiere, this means fans should expect Season 2’s release window to be in mid-to-late 2024.
How Many Episodes are in Andor?
Andor Season 1 has 12 episodes in its count and the second season will also have 12 episodes.
The first season took place over the span of a year and season two is confirmed to take place over four years, leading up to the events of Rogue One.
