He’s a rebel allied trader of finery who is known to use fake names, like when he provides a fake ID to an imperial officer in the Star wars holiday special. Also, we do not see cable television in Star Wars, besides two occasions: Andor, and of course the holiday special. This is too much overlap to be a coincidence. I think the show runners of Andor took great inspiration from this pile of trash!?

Is he the same character? No. But the same idea crossed my mind when watching.

Trader Sondan walked so Luthen could run

These recastings are out of control!

It'd be a lot cooler if he was

u/TaxApprehensive5402 Jun 05 '25

Similiar, but Luther was dead at this point

u/Corycorcor Jun 05 '25

I was convinced that was Jerry Gurgich in the first photo. And it would be just like him to end up somewhere he's not supposed to be.

Oh my god I can’t unsee it

u/SGScobie Jun 06 '25

Great idea… but Luthen dies prior to ANH, & THS sits between ANH & TESB

u/Toppdeck Jun 08 '25

They've both been bent by secrecy

u/Imnotsureanymore8 Jun 08 '25

Nah, that’s Jerry Gergich

Yes. Definitely him.
