Diego Luna and Adria Arjona Had To Rerecord All of 'Andor' Season 2 For an Awesome Reason

Most major TV series streaming on big services like Disney+ all have the option for subtitles in other languages. On top of that, if your preferred language isn't English, there's often the option for dubbed audio tracks in a variety of languages. Generally speaking, this means that the voices of the characters will sound different in other languages, because the people doing the voice dubs in French, German, or Spanish will not be the famous Hollywood actors on the screen.

But not with the Disney+ series Star Wars: Andor. If you choose the Spanish language dub for Andor Season 2, the voice actors who provide the Spanish dialogue for the characters of Cassian Andor and Bix Caleen are the exact same people who play them in English — Diego Luna and Adria Arjona.

"Most people don't realize that," Arjona told Carolina Reynoso in an interview posted to Reynoso's Instagram account. "It's a lot of work. You're doing the whole season and recreating a performance in a different language."

"And you're by yourself," Luna noted. "With no interaction."

Then, speaking in Spanish to Reynoso, Luna added that recreating the English performance for Andor in Spanish is a "folded art." 

"Trying to get the Spanish to enter at the rhythm that the English is coming out of your lips is very difficult," he said, loosely translated from Spanish.

Both Luna and Arjona speak Spanish fluently. Luna was born in Mexico, while Arjona was born in Puerto Rico and grew up in Mexico City. You can watch more of Reynoso's videos here.
