Will Star Wars Andor have a lightsaber in it?

Maul pulls his out at the end because they just couldn't help themselves. Audience might not realize it was a Star Wars movie, so they had to throw it in there.
And before someone brings it up, the Holiday Special DID have a lightsaber appearance at the very end when Chewbacca starts doing a flashback sequence.
Oh, right. Solo got Maul'd. I forgot about that. My mistake.
It's one of the greatest sound effects of all time and central to the brand so yeah it's gonna be in there somehow. The franchise isn't healthy enough for that kind of risk.
Almost certainly the Inquisitors will show up in some fashion. Or Andor will team up with a fugitive Jedi.
In short, yep. Them shoehorning Maul into Solo just to keep the tradition alive shows that Star Wars is in on the meme.

It will and its high end, $350 toy replica will spoil its design by going on sale at least a month before the series starts streaming.
Andorra takes place about 5 years before Rogue One. That's roughly the same time frame as Star Wars Rebels. So yes it's possible Ahsoka, Kanan, Ezra and the Inquisitors exist.
People make this shit up every time. First he was going to cameo in Mando, then in Obi-Wan, Cal is not showing up lol. He's not relevant.

I'll be quoted and told I am wrong and all that, but what makes Star Wars special and separates it from any other sci-fi project are the lightsabers and the Force. It's what brings people in and what makes the IP so special.
It absolutely will have a lightsaber. It'll probably be Vader as well. I'll be disappointed if a lightsaber doesn't appear.

Or, they have already established that there are key characters who are jedi/force wielders that were essential to recruiting and helping establish the creation of the Rebel Alliance. Characters that were created and established before Rogue One. I doubt they'll show up but if they did it would be completely in line to the story they've already been telling.

Hell yeah!
i dont care either way, but i really hope there isn't
this is a spy thriller with the "common folk" part of the rebelion.
there is not much the rebellion can do against a lightsaber user. so if they show it is insta-death, or some bullshit happening so they can escape.
and if someone from the lightside shows up, then they would still the spotlight from Andor, so whats the fucking point then.
also did mando had lightsabers on their first season? only the darksaber at the teaser, no?
wasn't mando not "Star wars enough" without lightsabers?

kenobi and andor filmed around the same time which makes me think they may not be able to resist a brief vader cameo, if they've already got everything ready and close by. A potential hitch in that theory is that Kenobi was largely filmed in Southern California, while Andor filmed in the UK.
However, there was some of Kenobi filmed in the UK. In particular, they built a large town set in an abandoned quarry. You know what kenobi scenes required a large town set and a quarry? When Vader was chasing Kenobi in episode 3. I also heard through the grapevine that someone involved in production reported one of the vader suits was sent to UK for kenobi prior to filming.
So it certainly seems likely that Kenobi Vader was nearby and ready during the filming of Andor. Just sayin.

Mando filled the fan service quota in plenty of other ways, including in Season 1 with its miniature Yoda.
In all these shows and movies there's basically always something for the casual SW fan to grab on to and feel like they're in a familiar world.
