The screenwriter, previously known for the Bourne trilogy and legal drama Michael Clayton, first travelled to a galaxy far, far away for 2016's Rogue One, and went on to oversee Disney's acclaimed prequel series.
Indeed, some fans have questioned whether Disney is too risk-averse in its reliance on fan service and familiarity, particularly after the scrapping of an intriguing Ben Solo pitch by Adam Driver and prolific director Steven Soderbergh (Black Bag).
The Hollywood Reporter asked Gilroy if he was "disappointed" that the future of Star Wars may not capitalise on the promise of Andor's mature, gritty storytelling.
"I don't know how I would behave if it was my ass on the line and there's 'X' amount of money [at stake]. The problem is there's no inexpensive way to do these shows [or movies]."
While sympathising with the predicament of worried executives, Gilroy did suggest that he would probably be more experimental with Star Wars, citing HBO's A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms as a successful gamble with another top franchise.

The screenwriter went on to address the rumours that Andor wasn't well-liked by The Mandalorian producer and recently promoted Lucasfilm president Dave Filoni (according to The Wrap) – a claim that left him puzzled.
