On the November 16, 2022 episode of /Film Daily, /Film Editorial Director Peter Sciretta is joined by /Film editor Brad Oman and Star Wars expert Bryan Young for a spoiler-filled conversation about Andor episode 11 “Daughter of Ferrix" In The Spoiler Room: Andor episode 11 “Daughter of Ferrix" Feedback Rene in Houston TX writes in “We see Cassian in prison 5 years before Rogue One, but in Rogue One Cassian tells Chirrut that this is the first time he’s been in prison (while in Saw’s cage when they take Jyn to see Saw). Surely this was intentional…but I can’t figure out the story here, appreciate your thoughts.” Mike in Wokingham, UK: “We all agree that ANDOR has been incredible - but what could they do that would ruin it all in the last episode? Maybe Cassian is about to die and is rescued by Baby Yoda. Or it turns out that B2EMO was an Imperial spy all along. Or (of course) Dedra is Cassian’s long lost sister and they run off together. What do you think? What would be the worst way to wrap up the season?” Brief reactions Breakdown Speculation All the other stuff you need to know: You can find more about all the stories we mentioned on today’s show at slashfilm.com, and linked inside the show notes. /Film Daily is published every weekday, bringing you the most exciting news from the world of movies and television as well as deeper dives into the great features from slashfilm.com.
