Andor’: Editor John Gilroy Talks About Changing ‘Rogue One’ and Building ‘Andor’ From the Ground Up with His Brother [The Rogue Ones Podcast‪]‬ The Playlist Podcast Network

    • TV & Film

In the sixth episode of The Rogue Ones, our hosts break down their thoughts on episode eight, entitled “Narkina 5,” which dropped on Disney+ this week. After the discussion, editor John Gilroy (“Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,” “Nightcrawler,” “Michael Clayton”) joins the podcast to talk about being brought on as a “fixer” for “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” with his brother and Andor showrunner, Tony Gilroy, and his experience editing “Andor” for Disney+.

During the interview, John Gilroy discussed being brought in to re-cut “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” with his brother. Many a rumor has been reported about that time, some saying the Gilroys completely re-cut the movie, others saying director Gareth Edwards still had control. Gilroy was hesitant to go into detail on the experience but was happy to comment on how much was changed.

“We were REALLY changing things,” Gilroy said with a laugh. “I don’t know how much I’m supposed to say about that, but it was really changing things and using all of the tricks in your bag as an editor to make scenes work. However, you need to make them work, you make them work.”

For more 'Andor,' read our review on ThePlaylist.net, and don't forget to listen to all our episodes of the Rogue Ones, where we talk to Tony Gilroy, Adria Adjona, Kyle Soller, Fiona Shaw, and many more.
