Now there we go!
Whatever else you might think about Disney’s commitment to 4K Ultra HD, it’s terrific to see them continuing with these 4K Steelbook releases of their best Marvel and Lucasfilm Disney+ streaming series.
And in terms of actual series selections, there simply aren’t any more coveted by Star Wars fans than Andor!
Season Two of the series was originally slated to debut this year in August, but it’s apparently been bumped until early 2025 due to delays caused by last year’s actor and writer strikes. The good news, however, is that Season Two just finished filming on February 9th, so post production is well under way.
The other three releases—Obi-Wan Kenobi, Moon Knight, and The Falcon and The Winter Soldier (which had already been announced was coming to disc by Disney last year) should also prove popular.
Rest assured, we’ll share the Amazon.com pre-order links as soon as they’re available.
Stay tuned!
