"I'm Fascinated by Them": Your New Favorite Star Wars Couple Almost Didn't Happen in 'Andor' Season 2
Andor Season 2 reveals that Dedra and Syril are officially a couple, but their relationship was a matter of some concern, according to Tony Gilroy.
Andor creator Tony Gilroy has achieved landmark success in the Star Wars series, though not everyone saw his genius at first. After using the famous franchise to weave a harrowing story about war and fascism, Gilroy decided to pair two unlikely characters together -- Syril (Kyle Soller) and Dedra (Denise Gough). The two had a contentious beginning in their relationship, but eventually found love in the hopeless place that is the Empire. This controversial decision to get the two characters together was of great concern, particularly for the actor who plays Dedra, Denise Gough.
