Andy Serkis shared with us how the Narkina 5 prison set on Andor messed with his head.
Disney+'s newest Star Wars series, the Rogue One prequel Andor, which stars Diego Luna in the title role, has attracted a lot of attention and acclaimed for how grounded it is. More so than ever seen in Star Wars before, the series puts the audience in the heart of a galaxy under fascist, Imperial rule, and pulls no punches with the brutality of the regime. But the immersive, all-encompassing hopelessness is not just something felt by the audience watching a finished, edited product.
In an interview with Collider's own Steve Weintraub, actor Andy Serkis, who plays Narkina 5 inmate and machine shop supervisor Kino Loy, said that everything on set, from the costumes to the set design, helped immerse the actors in the environment. So much so that they began to feel the psychological effects. It was extraordinary and very daunting. Look, we were walking on metal plates for weeks with bare feet, and that sapped your energy.
Like you say, the machine parts, the process of creating the pieces that are being put together by the whole team, that had to be thoroughly worked out. The actual design worked really well with the choreography of what had to be done to create those parts. So everything about it, and the cells, there was no sense of individuality about everything. That really, really plays with your mind and with your head when you're working on a set like that day in day out.
The first nine episodes of Andor are streaming now on Disney+, with new episodes on Wednesdays. Look for Steve's full conversation with Andy Serkis soon.
