'Andor' Episode 4 proved to be another humdinger. The chapter focuses on Cassian's (Diego Luna) early initiation into the still-yet-to-be-ready rebellion. After the events of Episode 3 where he escapes Ferrix with Luthen (Stellan Skarsgard), he's thrust into a mission at Aldhani in exchange for a tidy sum. A major part of the episode takes place in the Empire and introduces the villains of the Imperial Security Bureau (ISB).

From the introduction of Genevieve O'Relilly's Mon Mothma to Denise Gough's Dedra Meero, along with plans to pull off a heist right under the noses of the Imperial forces, the fourth episode packed a punch. While the first three episodes served to build the world of Cassian by interspersing the past and the present, the fourth saw a more detailed look at the formation of the Rebellion.

When does 'Andor' Season 1 Episode 5 come out on Disney+?

'Andor' Season 1 Episode 4 is scheduled to release at 12 am PT/3 pm ET on Disney+ on Wednesday, October 5, 2022. Like Episode 4, the remaining nine weeks will feature a single-episode release.

What to expect from 'Andor' Season 1 Episode 5?

Will there be Forest Whitaker's Saw Gerrera making an appearance in Episode 5? Possibly so. In Episode 4, one of the Aldhani crew mentions rebel extremist Gerrera, known to be one of the dangerous characters seen in 'The Clone Wars', 'Rebels' and 'Rogue One: A Star Wars Story'. The upcoming episode will also focus on Cassian's mission of breaking into an Imperial garrison on Aldhani to steal the quarterly payroll. It's a suicide mission no doubt, so expect some deaths in the next chapter.

The official synopsis reads, "The Andor series will explore a new perspective from the Star Wars galaxy, focusing on Cassian Andor’s journey to discover the difference he can make. The series brings forward the tale of the burgeoning rebellion against the Empire and how people and planets became involved. It’s an era filled with danger, deception, and intrigue where Cassian will embark on the path that is destined to turn him into a rebel hero.

'Andor' Episodes 1-4 are streaming on Disney+
