While 'The Rings of Power' and 'House of the Dragon' are looking into the past, Andor sets a template for the future.
Editor's note: The below contains spoilers for Andor, The Rings of Power, and House of the Dragon.In the modern media landscape, streaming services live and die based on the properties at their disposal. This fall, we’re seeing three of the most powerful streaming platforms competing against each other with HBO’s House of the Dragon, Prime Video’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, and Disney+’s Andor. All three shows are prequels with a very clear ending to their narrative arcs.
Both shows are also burdened with the importance of what’s coming later. You know going in that Elrond and Galadriel will survive because they appear in The Lord of the Rings, and that Isildur will choose to not destroy the One Ring. It makes it hard to invest in their character arcs when they have such definitive conclusions.
While Andor has an impressive ensemble, the supporting characters are introduced through their relationships with Cassian. We only know what Cassian knows about Luthen Rael, and Syril Karn’s antagonist is given a specific reason for wanting to track down the rebels. When characters like Mon Mothma are introduced, there’s a very clear line that draws them to Cassian’s activities.
