Comic-Con: first look at newest Star Wars droid from upcoming Disney Plus show ‘Andor’

Say hello to the newest 'Andor' star, B2EMO. But you can call it Bee for short.

The ongoing San Diego Comic-Con unfolding through this weekend has already provided a lot of first looks, with the latest being the newest member of the Star Wars droid family: B2EMO from the upcoming Disney Plus show Andor.

The name of the robotic entity was provided via a display card at the California convention, and the description reads as follows:

“B2EMO — or Bee-two or more simply, Bee – is a very old and weary groundmech salvage assist unit that’s been towing scrap for the Andor family for years. The droid has a wide array of mechanical tools and various capabilities to meet the functions required.”

An image of the droid was posted by the @DiscussingFilm Twitter account Thursday.

Over on Reddit, the user u/makesyoufeeldejavu posted other displays surrounding the Andor show, including a couple of costumes for Cassian Andor and Mon Mothma. Cassian Andor’s outfit resembles a cowboy, complete with duster and scarf, while Mon Mothma’s elegant dress-and-shawl combo that looks like it’s made out of cream-colored silk wouldn’t look out of place on a red carpet premiere.

The description of Cassian Andor, who will be portrayed by Diego Luna once again, reprising his role from Rogue One, reads:

“As part of his entry into the growing rebellion, Cassian Andor must undertake a dangerous mission on Aldhani.”

The description of Mon Mothma, portrayed by Genevieve O’Reilly, who also played the same character in Rogue One, reads:

“The Imperial Senator from Chandrila, Mon Mothma carefully navigates the dangerous shadows of Coruscant politics in her effort to build a rebellion.

Both costumes were designed by Michael Wilkinson, according to the display cards labeling each of them.

Andor has a premiere date on Disney Plus on Aug. 31.
